ALEXANDER.
The Late Gear Of Russia Bore a
Haunted Life.
He Was in Constant Dread of Nj
hiI;stic Plots.
Sought Relief in Stimulants, TONES and
Nerve Nutriment..

Alexander, the late car of Russia,
no doubt furnishes one of the most
striking examples in modern history
OF that trite saying, Uneasy rests
the head that wears a crown" His
whole life was succession Of per-
sonal alarms, secret connivings, nihi-
listic plots and nihilistic attempts at
assassination. Small wonder then if
he sought relief in medicine, and as
health restoring tonic for shattered
nerves and haunted mind demanded
stimulants. In saying this, let it be
understood that the late car was in
no sense an inebriate. The stimu-
lants which he sought were rather in
the nature of nerve builder, rather
than nerve destroyer, and though
he tried one remedy after another it
was years before he secured the right
one.
AS result of that discovery Alex
ander caused the following telegram
to be sent to the branch house of
JOHANN HOFF at St. Petersburg:
Send Immediately one case of IO-
HAM HOFF'S MALT EX-
TRACT to Sarskoje, Cello, by order
of the car. Count Won Schuwaloff."
The GENUINE JOHANN
HOFF'S MALT EXTRACT is
true builder of the flesh and blood.
One dozen bottles will give more
strength and nourishment than a
cask of ale, without being intoxicat-
ing.
Ask for the GENUINE TO-
HAM HOFF'S MALT EX-
TRACT.
All others are worthless limitations.
