The Kind That Cures

1t is an honest medicine, the dis
covery of an honest physician,
working in the interests of man
kind. That he has succeeded in
his aim the stories told by those
living right in your own vicinity
prove.
The life of MRS. A. BASSETT

Stomach, life was a continual mis-.
cry. Physicians and their medi-
cines. and widely known remedies
were used without effect. The light
est food distressed her. DANA'S

wonder at her faith in it?

glar was discovered in the rear

the counterfeit. 1t is believed these
