Don't Be Your Own Murderer and
Then Blame Some One Else.

Read This and Learn How to Avoid 1t.
Has anyone an idea of the number
of women, who are daily, yes hourly
counting the grave and bringing death
upon themselves long before their
TIME? How do they doit? When they
are ailing, Instead of going to areliable
physician, who can properly diagnose
their case and give them the correct
remedy therefor, they take the advice
of some friend or acquaintance who
''felt just AS they do, "and often only
take their cue from All advertisement
in newspaper, and buy few bottles
of medicine which is ''sure cure"
Sometimes they will feel relieved for
time while taking it, as the opiate
which the medicine contains will
deaden the pain for a while, but in
the meantime, the disease is eating it's
way and after a while they find them
selves worse than when they started
taking the drug, and when at last they
decide to visit reliable physician, he
has to fight against two demons, the
mischief the drug has done and the
original disease.
If you are not we'll, go to physician
one that will help you, don't buy a
bottle of anything that comes along,
thereby risking your life.
Mrs. Wilhelmine Fielitz, of Edwards,
P. o., Manitowoc county, had been
ailing for ten years with sickness Pc
culiar to her sex. She tried one So
called remedy after another, but with
no good results. She would feel better
for a lille aGd then feel worse than
before she started taking the medicine.
After firing of drugging herself with
patent medicines to no avail, she con-
suited different doctors, but even they
could not relieve her and in her own
words, 'after visiting most every doc
tor for miles around and getting no re-
lief, [ called on DR.. Turbin. He at
once told me that it would take some
time before [ would get well, or even
feel relieved, as he would first have to
undo the evil which had already been
done and then conquer the disease, but
he assured me, that if | would have
patience and do exactly as he said, be
would cure me. AS last resort, [ de-
cided to test his skill, and for the bal
ance of my life [ will be thankful that
[ did SO. At first [ felt no better and
in fact at times thought / was getting
worse, but gradually felt a change for
the better. 1t was very slow at first,
but / doctOred with him for ten
months and am happy to say that [ am
once more well woman, and only
VISA that had met this great doctor
sooner and saved myself years of sick
ness and torture"
Mrs Fieltz also savs-that anyone
who would like to have the above state
ment verified, can do SO by writing to
her and enclosing self addressed
stamped envelope.
II you are ailing, don't wait, but call
upon Dr.. Turbin, who will be in Water
town, May II, at the Commercial hotel.

THE mystery which has always at
tended the discovery OF Charles Bar
wig as a congressional candidate has
at last been explained by The Fond
du Lac Commonwealth as follows:
Originally Charles Barwig, of May
vile, Dodge county, was put upon the
Democratic ticket for congress as a
matter of expediency-simplyt to gain
a little time for bitterness to die out
ALTERS the remarkable defeat of Art.
Delaney and the election Of Dick
Guenther. But Barwig got taste Of
the milk from the congressional COW
and could not be choked off, and SO it
comes about that he is again on the
track and will make a fight for d
fourth term. Two years ago an effort
was made to shelve him but he got
the nomination, equivalent to an
election, through a bIunder OF his op-
ponents He and his friends have
managed now to arouse the aspira-
tions OF three or four candidates,
hoping to profit by their contentious
and plumbers, claiming at the same
time that. BarWig made no promises
IN 1892 to get out of the way in / 894. )"
