A COMMON SENSE REMEpY

In the matter of curatives what Won
want is something that will do its work
while you continue to do yours-a
remedy that will give you no incon-

experiment; they have been in use for
over thirty years, and their value has
been attested by the highest medical
authorities, as we'll as by testimonials
from those who have used them. They
require no change OF diet. and are not
enected by wet or cold. Their action
does not interfere with labor or bust
ness; you can toll and yet be cured
while hard at work. They are so pure
that the youngest, the oldest, the old
