customers. The plan of gift is as fol-
lows: Each customer is given a card,
and every time a purchase is made,
the corresponding number, in dollars

the numbers on the card, amounting
to $45, are punched out, when the
customer is awarded the book. This

isn't what you want, if your stomach

about all you get, though, with the
ordinary pill. IL may relieve you for
a moment, but you're usually in a
worse state afterward than before.
That is just where Dr. Pierce's
Pleasant Pellets do most good. They
act in an easy and natural way, very
different from the huge, old-fashioned
pills. They're not only ypleasanter, but
there's no reaction afterward, and
their help lasts. One little sugar
coated pellet for gentle laxative or
correctiye-three for cathartic. Con-
shpation, Indigestion, Bilious Attacks,
Dizziness, Sick and Bilious Headaches
are promptly reliyed and cured.
They're the smallest, the easiest to
take-and the cheapest pill you can
buy, for they're guaranteed to give
satisfaction, or your money is return
