The Hunger and Thirst Cure.

The hunger cure was at one time a very
popular punishment in Siberia. But the
latest punishment Inflicted is the eating of
salted herrings. This is regarded a. espe-
cially useful in the case of prisoners who
refuse to disclose secrets or to betray their
accomplices. Those who have experienced
it say that the continual eating of very
salty herrings is the worst form of torture
imaginable Thumbscrews and iron collars
are mild Inconvenience compared to 1t.
The victim is shut up in well heated,
small cell and nothing is given him to eat
but salted herrings, no water, and not even
any bread The thirst thus induced causes
the most maddening agonies. and it is al
most invariably found that when the pris-
oner is brought before the examing com

He said. 'NO-to-bac is not sold on
the strength of the thousands and

That made long story about merit

Prominent physicians look upon No

free TO prescribe it.
Every wholesale drug house in this
country and Canada sells No-tO-bac,
and the retail druggists are pushed to
supply the demands Of customers; the
direct mail demand is immense.
The cost of No-to-bac compared
with the results is small matter, as
the saving in a week pays the cost
OF a cure for lifetime. No-tO-bac is
sold for Sl.OO a box. or three boxes,
$3.50, with a guarantee TO cure or
