Different diseases have different poi

by undigested food.
When you are sick, try to get rid Of your

nature Is helping you. Only the poison Is
obstinate, but the first step is to go to the
root Of IL.

weakness, bad taste, stomach ache, fever,
flatulence, nausea, constipation, loss OF
appetite, jaundice, anamia, neuralgia.
rheumatism, etc, these poisons can be
swept away and annlhilated by the

Curing the stomach and helping ii TO
digest food, when IL is too weak to do so
by itself, will purify your system OF
poison and renew your strength and
health.

My waist measurement was reduced from fifty-seven inches to forty-three inches, a difference of four teen inches. Previous to taking VOLT remedies l suffered from shortness of breath and palpitation of the heart. and could not take any exercise what ever, and my ankles refused to sup port my weight. Now I can exercise freely; the shortness of breath has left me, as has also my heart trouble While taking your remedies I made trip to the Pacific coast. I was able to walk around quite a good deal which had not been able to do pre- Vlously for. number of years. On my return home my neighbors said they had never expected to see me re- turn alive, but through the efficacy of your Obesity Remedies I have been greatly improved. I shall continue your treatment, as I desire to be re- duced about fifty (5O) pounds more. Il nave answered a great many letters of as to the truth of this state ment, and have always recommended Dr. Edison's Obesity Remedies to all who are overburdened with super- tluous flesh.

JOHN HABBERToN states that mosqui-
toes are extremely frightened by
dragon flies and will not come within
yards of them. He says that one or
two dried dragon flies suspended from
fine silk under the roof of an open
porch infested by mosquitoes will scare
all of the little pests away, and they
will not come back while the dragon
flies are there. This, he says, he has
tried with surprising results 1t is a
well known fact that dragon flies are
predatory and voracious insects, and
as they subsist largely upon gnats,
midges and mosquitoes, it is natural that
the mosquito should be wary.

from where he started, he landed on
his feet, and after feeling himself over
to assure himself that he was all there,
climbed back to his former perch and
resumed his work as though nothing
had happened.
