tered out of the kidneys.
A headache may be simply an unimportant
pain, or the agony may be so excruciatinR ae
almost to drive one frantic.
Rheumatic folks have headache hard
workers have headache, people who drink
too much tea and coffee, or use too mucb
tobacco, have headache folks who worry, OF.
get too excited, have headache.
Headache is relieved by neryines, sedatiyes.
and other drugs.
But not cured.
A cure requires the poison to be filtered mt
of the blood The cause must be taken
away. The kidneys be made to do Their.
duty.
The only medicine that will do this is DR..
Hobbs Sparagus Kidney Pills
The reason is, that they are made princi
pally from the root of asparagus, one of the
most wonderful kidney toncs and curatiyes
known, and prepared in certain way which
uses all the curative principle of the plant
Headache is irritation of the nerves by 4.
poison. Curing il is taking away the
poison.
DR.. Hobbs Sparagus Kidney Pills are not
what is called headache cure" but they
cure the kidneys and make them filter the,
blood
They take away the poison. They make
headache impossible
After the pain is gone, prevent it from
coming back. This is the mission of DR.
Hobbs Sparagus Kidney Pills.
If you have a headache, make up your
mind that something is wrong.
You may be rheumatic or have an@mia
gout, kidney diseases, or other disorders Of
| impure blood
Headache is often first symptom. Re
lieving it doesn't prevent the disease from
progressing.
! Curing it does.
Poor, thin, unfltered poisonous blood
causes headaches, neuralgia, and other nerve
diseases by depriving the nerves of food.
! Good, rich, pure filtered blood makes
strong, healthy, vigorous nerves, body, and
constitution.
On the kidneys depend the purity of your
blood.
On Dr. Hobbs Sparagus Kidney Pills may
depend the health of your kidneys.
There is no other medicine in the world
that is just like DR.. Hobbs Sparagus Kidney
Pills.
They act so quickly and certainly on the.
seat of the trouble. They are so absolutely
harmless and gentle in action. They cure in
so many cases where all other medicines
| have failed
They are a wonderful medicine.
No one has been able to explain just what
there is about asparagus that has such good
effect on the kidneys.
But every physician knows its effects, and
everybody who has tried DR.. Hobbs Spaagus
Kidney Pills knows that their curative
power can hardly be exaggerated.

Against Drinking at Meals.
Good Housekeeping.

uOou housekeeping.
The reason why drinking should not
accompany eating, but be INDUCED in
before or after, is, in the first place,
because liquids are foods as we'll as
solids, and repasts must be kept as
light as possible at all costs. But
there is another reason. Dry repasts,
if light, lead to loss OF flesh, whereas
the same quantity of food, if it include
liquids, is devoid OF this effect. 1t is
not easy to say why this should be so |;
but the most probable explanation is
that when only solids are eaten the
juices of the body are called into ac-
ton to larger extent than otherwise,
in order to further the process OF di-
gestion, whence a sensation of thirst is
usually experienced. The body has
thus lost more than the ordinary guam
tity OF water, and if this loss is not
compensated by drinking it will be re.
placed by the body itself, which will
draw upon its superiiuous fat for the
purpose. The fat is decomposed into
its elements, and combustion takes
place. This process commences about
an hour after eating, and if drinking
be deferred until then it may be in
dulged in afterward with profit, mas
much as it promotes the very process
which half an hour earlier it would
have prevented. But in any case, and
at all times during the cure, liquids
must he taken with as much modera.
ton as solids.

Recent events have considerably
modified the views of men who take
an interest in pugilistic matters, and
il Corbett and Fitzsimmons were
about to enter the ring tomorrow for
their long-talked-of contest it is not
probable that much odds would be
given on the Californian in the bet
ting. The developments of the Cor,
bett divorce suit, followed so soon by
the champions strange encounter
with Fitzsimmons in the bar of Phil
adelphia hotel and other almost
equally sensational happenings, are
enough to set men asking whether he
is really 80 different from Sullivan
and his manner of living as has been
popularity supposed, and whether the
same causes which are said to have
initiated against John l.. in his later
battles may not now be reasonably
considered as factors in weighing Cor
belts chances with the lanky Aus
tralian. The failings of the latter, if
he has any that deserve consideration,
are those OF rough, manly man, and
even those who are not Fitzsimmons'
admirers admit that he is now in the
prime of manhood, and sound and fit
to enter training for the battle of his
life. Careful critics are asking wheth-
er7 this much can be said in Corbetts
case. Corbett lost control OF himself
in the ring with Mitchell at Jackson
vile. He has lost his temper on
every occasion since then when he
has been brought face to face with
FitZsinmOns. On the contrary, the
Australian has shown himself most
cool-headed and exasperating foe
Should Corbett lose his temper when
| he confronts Fitzsimmons to battle
for the championship it may be d
much more serious matter for him
than when he stormed and scowled al
a stale little Englishman who was
conceding him years in age and al
most forty pounds in weight. Fitz-
simmons, the cool, skillful, agile boxer
