WHAT THEY SAY.

Some Words OF encouragement From
Persons Whose i1Iperieneet 4 Valuable.
"lndlgestlon is the curso or this coun'
try" says New York medical journal In
a recent editorial. Both men and wo-
men surfer from this distressing COM
plant and II causes tremendous amount
OF misery"
This is all very true, but there is no
reason why any man or woman should
suffer from indigestion when there is n
ready means OF preventing 1t. Thousands
Of people have discovered sure cure Tor
this much dreaded complaint and some OF
than have given the public the benefit Of
their experience.
ciDnRtl. says: 81 had dyspepsia for hfteeR
years and was entirely cured by taking
Dnffy'B purO malt whisky, / Ind tried
almost everything und know that this
whisky cures when all others fall. am
advising all my friends TO use IT,"
W. y. Anderson. 6i1 West Indiana
street. Chicago. says; II used Duny's pure
malt whisky for indigestion and dySpep-
sln. My stomach ~ now In better condl-
ton than Il has been for years pust,
Sevon OF my friends are using II with the
same results"
These are only two cases selected from
thousands OF otheTg, but they are suiii-
Client to prove that Dyspepsia and tndlgos-
ton can be always avoided by tho regular
use OF Dufry'S pure malt II Will not only
keep the digegtiYG organs In perfect con-
dillon, but give tono and energy TO every
part OF the body, There IL no other whisky
like IL; nothing else that can take It's
place. Therefore. make sure that you got
no inferior imitation when purchasing
from your grocer or druggist.

For this purpose we must put Into Il

eve Cordial, for this is Just such a
srupsrntion.. Il contains food which

tains principles which will assist the
digestion OF other foods, while last but
not least, II contains u combination of
those drugs In the cultivation OF which
the Shakers have been so successful,
and which act by stimulating the liver
md bowels.
Imperfect digestion Is often caused by
overwork OF the digestive apparatus,
too much food. food eaten too quickly.

The Shaker Digestive Cordial Is the
most successful remedy for indigestion
that has ever been made. A single 10

cases, although this smallQuantlty cam

II you find II suitable In your own
case, continue its use. All druggists
keep II and can supply you with an In

CHICAGO. Jan. 6.-The interest OF

next meeting of the executive commit
tee OF the National Mlllcrs Trade Asso-
NclatIon to be held here about January
q, Millers generally have practically
decided upon n persistent agitation for
reciprocity with South American coun-
tries and will make determined effort
for the repeal OF that portion OF the
tariff law which they think conflicts
with the flour Interests OF the United
States.
II. a. EcRhurt, n prominent member
OF the association says the prospect Of
Cubans ginning their Independence Will
have tendency TO promote commercial
relations between the new republic and
this country. THE present prohlbitive
tariff between America and South
American countries" he added, should
be removed, but we realize that an
amendment TO the Wilson bill to obtain
this relief would not be necessarily
granted for one commodity. Others
Will doubtless be Included. The idea Ia
to continue aEitatinE until the result
Is attained. MIllcrs do not anticipate
any relief from the present Congress
N the President would veto any such
bill. AZ long as the presept tariff Ia In
effect. II means n decrease OF 100000
barrels OF flour annually In the export,
and the loss OF SlG,000,O0O per year to
American millers, compared TO the ben
eflta by reciprocity through the Nc
Klnley law. At the coming meeting NJ.
II. Davis will preside. Mr.. Plllsbury
and Others will attend. and have rea-
