FIGHTING THE DEVIL.


There are two ways of dealing with
the evils of this world. Ono is to ut
tack and try to break them down by
main force, the other to dissolve them
by Che active prescnce of good. Things
a1e SO connected here below that
whatever appertains to one thing,
holds equally good with another. So
That the rule that is here stated holds
II those great remedies that tend to
alleviate pain, that euro the weak and
suffering. and that tend to rescue the
sick from disease. This is the method
on which the Laxative Gum Drops
work. They quietly act upon the LIVER,
stomach and bowels, gently exciting
the secretions, until the waste and
morbid matter is expelled from the
system. In this manner the work is
accomplished without pain or gripping,
certainly and surely. This work can
not be done in Il moment. In order to
obtain the best results these. gum
drops should DO taken every night just
before retiring, for several nights. If
this course be pursued the digestion
will be perfectly regulated. Get these
gum drops Of any druggist. The small
boxes cost 10 cents, the large oncs 25
cents. SYLVAN REMEDY Co.
