granules, for conyenience's sake, are
put up in little bottles that are just
the size TO carry III the vest pocket,
and are handy TO take Immediately af-
ter lunch or dinner.
Large doses of the specific are not
necessary, as their best action comes
from the minute dose, regularly taken.
In this way the cause Of the trouble Is
removed and good health is restored.
1t purifes the blood, gently stimulates
the liver, restores good digestion and
regulates the bowels. However, a
purgative effect NAV be had, if desired.
by sufficiently increasing the dose, and
however large the dose, il
Is Absolutely Harmless.
'.Many imagine themselves afflicted
with organic heart disease, when in
reality, the pains, palpitations and
fiutterings are caused by gas in the
stomach pressing against the heart
and not giving it room TO easily per-
form its important work.
After taking the specific for a few
days, digestion becomes good and the
heart troubles cease. This specific
has cured some of the worst cases of
heart disease, solely by aiding nature
to once more act normally.
For torpid and sluggish liver,
with constipated bowels, which cause
headache, dizzy feelings, drowsiness,
bad taste in the mouth, coated tongue,
heartburn, Gas, sour stomach and dys-
pepsia, take one OF the specific gram
ules on going 10 bed and one after
each meal. No change Of diet is re-
quired when taking the specific. As
its use improves the appetite, the gen
eral effect upon the system is most
beneficial
f. f. Evans & Co. have secured a
quantity of the specific and have al
ready sold many bottles.

Spray Your Apple Trees.

It is now as easy to raise plums, cherries,
spples, etc, and have them nice and free
from injury from worms, insects, etc, as
ii is TO raise currants. 1t has been thor
oughly Settled by extensive experiments
that il the trees are properly sprayed
with a weak solution Of London purple,
in the proportion OF one pound to 2OO GAL
Ions of water. 1t will certainly kill the
coddling moth and curculio, and ensure

Fearful Of Risks.
An investigation into the Cause Of
ApOpIsTy.
How New York Diners Avoid Danger.
"Lst Good Digestion Wait on Appe-
tite."
Drastic Doses and Strong CathartiCS
Have Gone by at Last.

New YoRK.-The alarming increase
within year in the mortality from
apoplexv has set insurance men think
ing. and the fear of sudden death
from this and similar diseases is re-
sulting in the rejection of great
many applicants for policies.
Insurance examiners say that men
who appear robust and sound are
found too frequently upon close
questioning TO have premonitorv
symptoms that make it safer to reject
than TO accept the risks.
The last report of one of the largest
companies in the country stated that
one out of every ten deaths was from
apoplexy.
Dr. Edward +. Howard, whose in
yestigations into the causes of this in
crease have been pursued with such
yigor and such fortunate results, says
that il is undoubtedly true that apo
plexy is preceded for "a considerable
time by premonitory symptoms.
Giddiness, pain and sense OF pres
sure in the head, confusion of ideas,
flushing of the face, noises IN the
ears. drowsiness and sometimes nau-
sea and faintness, and invariably
some form Of indigestion prccede apo
pleXy.
The insurance people a. well as doc
tors and patients are Therefore Just
now very much interested IN Df.
Howard's new specific, which has
been found to have the utmost value
in curing dyspepsia and other stom-
ach troubles that heretofore have been
incurable.
The little granules which diners-out
find so successful in relieving that
full feeling after dinner, " says one OF
the medical journals, have been proved
TO be without doubt certain prevent
i've of apopIexv. 'and DIR. Howard Is
to be congratulated upon solving not
only a medical but a business problem
as well.
II seems that Dr. Howard's harms

ach regulators and gentle laxatives'
and are already being generally pre-
scribed by the more prominent physl-
clans because

more assuredly than doses OF drastic
medicine or strong cathartic pills.
AT the clubs, the handy little bottles
of the specific have taken the place
of the harmful liquors that have been
