This lisping tongue that chatters con-

ScrOfulla

1t ought to interest everybody to
Know that the terrible affliction
called Scrofula is the forerunner of n
still more terrible disease. Scrofula
is the seed of consumption. 1t is so
deep-seated and obstinate that not
one doctor in hundred can cure it.
TO cure Scrofuia, you must cure the

roots and reach deep. A CLOSING
