I will never use IL again. know that II is
1njuring me physically and financially and
my nerves are becoming so irritated thatl
can't stand the least annoyance" What Is
the result? These good resolutions are
generally made while the effect of the use
OF tobacco practically paralyzes the crav-
ings OF millions of irritated nerve centers
and just as soon as the effects commence
to pass away these good resolutions weaken.
showing conclusively that the use OF to-
Dacco Is not a habit but a disease OF tile
nervous system caused by the education OF
the nerves to crave for the nicotine poison
ing. What then is the easy, permanent,
natural way to relieve yourself Of the use
of tobacco? Certainly not by dscontinu-
ing 1t and suffering the nervous reaction
and prostrating effects and mental degen-
eracy sure to follow the long and continued
use of tobacco. Does 1t not suggest itself
to you that the natural thing to do Is to
take remedy that Ii. is.specifically prepared
to eradicate the effects of the nicotine in the
system and to overcome the nerve craving
effects and restore the tobacco-irritated
nerves to u normal and healthy condition?
To this, we all say, "ies, where il the
remedy?'' You will find 1t in o-Bac.
This is easily said and we all naturally ask
for proof. Certainly. II No-To-Bac fails
to cure, The Sterling Remedy Company, of
New York, Montreal and Chicago, have so
much faith in their remedy, that they posi-
lively guarantee TO refund the money, and
the concern being owned and operated by
some OF the most reputable business men
OF the east and west, is absolutely reliable
and we are glad TO say, able iii every way
to live up to it's guarantee.
The sale of No-To-Bac within the past
few years has assumed enormous proper
tons, almost entirely developed upon its
merits and the recommendations or the
cured. So great is the sale that 1t is
hardly possible to go into any leading
drug store without finding it on sale, and
the druggist has nothing but words OF
praise TO give it.
