The sick and delicate need a gentle
tonic stimuant. 1t is often matter of
life and death with them. The ideal nu-
triment and restorative is pure whiskey.
The whiskey usually given is poor and,
therefore, dangerous. Too much stress
cannot be laid upon this. Weakened
systems need mature, wholesome, mel
low liquor. That's precisely what the
/. W. HARPER Whiskey is. Perfect as
beverage or medicine. 1t prevents
chills and tones up the system. 1t is
vitality from natures laboratory. 1t ex-
hilarates and does not poison, for al
fusel oil and impurities are removed
That's why doctors drink it. It's good
for the sick and old and excellsnt for the
young and we'll. Sold by every reliablei
dealer in North Yakima, Wash.
