ing their eggs at the season of the year

tobacco snuff may be shaken in the ami

Many persons especially parents
object to many quack nostrums as like

die of disease than Of drunkenness. The
use of Parker's Tonic does not involve
this danger. 1t not only builds up the
system, curing all ailments of the stom-
ach, liver and kidneys, but stimulates
without intoxicating and absolutely cures
the appetite for liquor.
