FEW KNOW ABOUT THE SHAKERS
An interesting, God-Fearing People
Who, Have Given the World
Many important Dis
coVeries.

We may not accept their peculiar re-
ligious beliefs nor can we enter into
the spirit of their sacrifices. 1t is not
necessary to believe az they do, but we
can and do respect their sincerity Of
purpose and the honor and upright
ness which marks all their business
dealings.
The Shakers have always been sue
cussful inventors, and some of the
greatest of the conveniences of the
present day found origin in their set
Elements.
In one particular they excel all other
men or classes of men, and that is in
cultivation of medicinal herbs and
their preparation for use. They have
made it a study for more than one hun
bred years. 1t is one of their peculiar
industries. Their lives have been de
voted to it.
Their latest and greatest achieve
ment is the Shaker Digestive Cordial.
1t is not offered as "A cure for all dis
eases. 1t does not pretend to be, but
one disease it will cure. and that is
Indigestion.
Sufferers who resort to its use have
not long to wait to see the result. The
effect is almost immediate. The first
dose usually gives relief and if contin-
ued a permanent cure viii follow.
1t not only contains already digested
food, but it digests food as well, thus
toning up the general system. An in
teresting pamphlet is now being issued
and may be had for the asking at al
most any drug store.

gestive Cordial and see what it will
do for you.
