How to Cure a Headache.
or bilious headache is very

Dvspeptic or bilious headache is very
common, and. it seems TO me, it is the
headache which is most easily traceable
to its cause and most readily avoided
without medicine.
Every one who has ever suffered
from it knows, as we'll as / can tell
them, the cause and remedy. 1t is the
old story of appetite, indulgence and
punishment.
If you wish to know my advice rs to
curing bilious headache l sav-Don't
get it. Eat such food as agrees with
you; be temperate in all things, and be
, as regular as clockwork about your
habits. In the case of young people
this headache can always be traced to
some error in diet-as itch food in i'm
moderate quantity, eating at unreason-
able or unusual hours, drinking wine
or beer, ETC.. tc.-and it readily gives
way to an emetic and sleep. Almost
ny cmetic will do-ipecac or sulphate
Il zinc. In the case of elderly persons,
lowevcr the headaches, although less
acute. are apt to be more tedious and
more exhausting. Rest in bed. cold
applications to the head. and some
purgative medicine taken so as TO oper-
ate i'll the morning, will usually effect
a cure.-Dr. AfdcHe7lry, IN LADIES'

KNOWLEDGE

Brings comfort and improvement and
tends to personal enjoyment when
rightly used Tho many, who live bet
ter than others and enjoy life more, with
less expenditure, by more promptly
adapting the worlds best products to
the needs of physical being, will attest
the value to health of the pure liquid
laxative principles embraced in the
remedy, Syrup of Figs.
It's excellence is due to its presenting
in the form most acceptable and pleas
ant to the taste, the refreshing and truly
beneficial properties of perfect lax
alive; efectually cleansing the system,
iispelling colds, headaches and fevers
and permanently curing constipation.
1t has given satisfaction to millions and
met with the approval of the medical
profession, because it acts on the Kid
neys, Liver and Bowels without weak
ening them and it is perfectly free from
every Objectionable substance.
Syrup Of Figs is for sale by all drug
gists in SOC and 81 bottles, but it is man
