Avoid Weakness and Suffering.

A Promin ent Man Shows How Elderly
People can Prolong Their LIVES and
Avoid Weakness and Suffering.
Charles Dickens never wrote truer thing
than the following:
"Can anything be more pitiable than the
sight of elderly men or women who realize
that the strength of earlier years is depart
ing? Down the plane of life, whose end is
in darkness, they look, and wonder If their
weary steps will carry them painlessly to
the end"
Any elderly person who feels trembling
of the nerves. a weakening of the muscles,
lessened vitality, decreased vigor, chilled
hands or feet, needs--nay, must haye-as-
sistance. Money cannot render it. Drugs
should be avoided. Here is what one OF
the greatest of modern physicians, a no less
parsonage than DR.. Gardner, says on the
subjects:
''E,lderly persons, who in winter suffer
from cold feet and find artificial heat ap-
piled externally fail to afford relief, may,
with undoubted proprlety and advantage,
take whisky and hot water on going to bed.

Inference is the spirit was impure, probably
containing fuse OIL A very light trace of
this noxious ingredient in spirit will, in
some constitutions, produce headache as
accurate test of impurity as chemistry
can employ"
free from fusel oil, and that is the we'll
known and justly-popular Duffy's Pure
Malt Whisky. 1t has all the properties
that contribute to health and vigor, and
none that iniure. 1t cannot harm the
stomach even of a child. 1t is sold uni
versally and well merits its wonderful
popularity. Be sure and take no other,
