Financial Worry and Physical Ex-

For Bumanity's Sake, After Thirty-six
Years of Nerve-Creeping Slavery,
He Tells How He Was

Caldwell. n. j., March 19, 1S95.-(Special.)
Since one of our prominent citizens suffered
so terribly from tobacco tremens, has made
known his frightful experience in behalf Of
humanity, the ladies here are making tobac-
co-using husbands lives miserable with
their entreaties TO ut once quit tobacco.
The written statement of s. J. Gould is
attracting widespread attention. When in
terviewed tonight he said: Il commenced
using tobacco at thirteen; / am now forty
nine; so, for thirty-six years / chewed,
smoked, snuffed and rubbed snuff.
In the morning l chewed before / put my
pants on, and for q long time l used two
ounces of chewing and eight ounces OF
smoking a day. Sometimes / had achew
il both cheeks and a pipe in my mouth at
once. Ten years ago | quit drinking whisky.
/ tried TO stop tobacco time and again, but
could not. Ny nerves craved nicotine andI
fed them, till my skin turned a tobacco
brown, cold, sticky perspiration oozed from
my skin, and trickled down my back at the
least exertion rexcitement Mynerve vigor
and my life was being slowly Slapped. / made
up my mind that i had to quit tobacco or
die. On October l l stopped, and for three
DAYS l suffered the torture of the damned
On the third day | got so bad that my part
ner accused me of being drunk. lsaid, No,
Ihave quit tobacco For GOd'ssake, man.
he said, offering me his tobacco box, take a
chew: you will go Wild and l was wild.
Tobacco was forced into me and l was taken
homedazed. / saw double and my memory
was beyond control, but l still knew how
to chew and smoke, which l did all day I'M
til towards night, when my system got
~tObacco-soaked again. The next morning l
looked and felt as though | had been through
a long spell of sickness. l gave up in de-
spair, as | thought that l could not cure my
self. Now, for suffering humanity, III tell
what saved my life. Providence evidently
answered my good wife's prayers and

ticle which read: Don't Tobacco Spit and
Smoke Your Life Away
What a sermon and warning in these
words! Just what l was doing. II told
about a guaranteed cure for the tobacco
habit, called No-ro-Bac. l sent to Drug
gist Hasler for a box. Without a grain Of
faith | spit cut my tobacco cud, and put
into my mouth a little tablet upon which
was stamped No-TO-Bac. l know it sounds
like a lie when / tell you that l took eight
tablets the first day, seven the next, five the
third day, and all the nerve-creeping feel
ing, restlessness and mentaldepression was
gone. 1t was too good to be true. Il seemed
like q dream. That was a month ago. 1
used one box. 1t cost me 81, and it is worth
a thousand. | gained ten pounds in weight
and lost all desire for tobacco from the first
day. i sleep and eat well and | have been
benefited in more ways than | can tell. No,
the cure was no exception In my case. |
know of ten people right here in Caldwell
who have bought So-To-Bac from Hasler,
and they have bean cured. Now that | rea-
lie what No-TO-Bac has o for me and
others, l know why it is that the makers of
this wonderful remedy. the Sterling Rem
edy Company, of New York and Chicago,
say: We don't claim to cure every case.
That's Frauds talk. 4 lie; but we do guar
antee three boxes to cure the tobacco habit.
and in case of failure W are perfectly will
ing to refund money | would not give a
public Endorsement if | were not certain of
its reliability. know it is backed by men
worth IA million. So-TO-Bac has been a
God-send to me, AID l firmly believe it will
cure any case of tobacco using if faithfully
tried, and there are thousands Of tobacco
slaves who ought to know how easy it is to
get free. There's happiness in NO-To-Bac
for the prematurely old men, who think rs
l did that they are old and worn out, when
tobacco is the thing that destroys their vi
tally and manhood"
The public should be warned, however,
against the purchase of any of the many
limitations on the market, as the success of
NO-To- BAG has brought forth a host of
counterfeiters and imitators. The genuine
No-To-Bac is sold under a guarantee to
cure. by all druggists, and every tablet has
the word NO-TO-Bac plainly stamped there.

risk in purchasing the genuine article
