1t is very singular that none of the

MINE-T EMIT
Large Proportion Of Hu-
manity Suffering.
Indigestion and Constipation
Chiefly Responsible.
FIRST STEP TOWARDS RE-
COVERY IS TO CAREFULLY
REGULATE THE DIET.
Small Quantities Of Concentrated
Laxatives the Best Remedy.
Tiny Silvered Granules ofDr How.
ards Specific All-powerful
To Cure.

"If physicians Will remember" says
the editor of the Medical Brief, in re-
cent issue, "that nine-tenths of the hui
man race are suffering from indigo stion
and its concOmitaut evils, and direct
their treatment to the removal of this
trouble, they will earn the good will
and gratitude of their patients and find
themselves vastly more successful in
practice
The first step is to regulate the diet.
Many vegetables and some fruits disa-
gree with delicate stomachs. Juicy
beef, lamb, eggs, milk, fish and fowl,
homemade bread, stale or toasted,
should form the bulk of the diet list.
As to medicine, the little silvered gran
ules of DR.. Howard, a specific for the
cure of constipation and dyspepsia and
the prevention of apopleXy will soon
relieve and cure. Scores of people
right here in Middlebury know this to
be fact. They have carried the vest
pocket vial of
Health-GiVing Specific,
and after a hearty meal have aided di-
geston with one of its silvercd granules.
Or, when continued const stipatiOn and an
inactive liver have made the world look
gloomy and caused headaches and other
ills, one dose of DR.. Howard's specific
has brought relief to the physical sys-
TEN AID happiness to the mind.
Much medicine is an evil. Hence. the
small dose IN which this specific is effect
ual has been welcomed by many physi-
clans. They have found that it gives
the desired effect and has none of the
harmful results that follow the deuging
of the stomach with mineral water OF
/ the bobitual use of cathartic pills and
medicines.
DR.. Howard's specific for the cure OF
constipation ard dyspepsia and the pre-
vention of apopleXy is the one laxative
known where the dose is diminished in
stead of increased after person has
used it. Commencing with three gran
ules a day, ii is not long before but one
will keep the bowels regular and natur
al. 1t cures constipation, the breeder o
disease. Use the specific and be well.

The Democracy has heard from Maine,
and in an emphatic fashion. The election
in that State on Monday resulted IN a Re
publican majority of upwards of $4,000,
the largest by nearly 10000 since the
formation of the party in 1886. Only
twice, in 1865 and 1866, has the majority
of the Republicans exceeded 10000, and
the greatest previous to this year, in
1866, was only p, 600. The senate is Who'll.
