One Of these clocks in this generation IS ap-

The suggestive name, "Doctoring Old
Time" brings to our mind another version
of the title, used for another pu:Pose-"OId
Time Docloring.'
We learn, through a reliable source. that
one of the most cntcrprising proprietary
medicine firms of the country, has been for
wears investigating the formulas and medical
preparations used in the beginning OF TINS

vigor so seldom found in the present genera
ton. They now think they have secured the
secret or secrets. They find that the prevail
ing opinion that then existed. that Nature
has a remedy for every existing disorder"
was true. and acting under this belief, our
grandparents used the common herbs and
plants Continual treSpaSs upon the forest

and has driven them further from clvlllza-

From the number of remedies, it will be
seen that they do not propose TO cure all
diseases with one preparation. it's believed
by many that with these remedies q new era

tired of modem doctoring and the public has
great confidence in any remedies put up by

The people have become suspicious of the
effects Of doctoring with poisonous drugs
Few realize the injurious effects following the
prescriptions of many modern physicians.
These effects OF poisonous drugs, already
prominent, will become more pronounced in
