More

Curative power is contained in Hoods
SarSaparilla than in any other similar
preparation. 1t costs the proprietor and
manufacturer more. 1t costs the iObber
more and is worth more to the consumer.
More skill is required in its preparation
and it combines more remedial qualities
it has record of more cures and its sales
are more than those of any other prepar-
alton. Hoods Sarsaparilla is the best
medicine to buy because it is an honest
medicine and thousands of testimonials
prove that it does actually and perma-

THE HONEST SHAKERS AND
THEIR CURE FOR DYSPEPSIA.

The shopkeeper who cheats US by
lying with regard to the quality Of
his goods, and the grocer or the butch
err who gives us short weights, is q
thief. However, their knavery touch
es nothing but our pocketbook. There
is another widespread form of misrep-
resentatioD of far more dangerous
and villalnous character.
We refer to the false statements
and worthless guarantees that fire.
quently accompany medicines. To
guarantee q medicine to cure is to
brand it as a quack product. If we can
guarantee to cure disase, then we can
guarantee everlasting life, for in a
large majority of cases people die Of
disease, the proportion of violent or
accidental deaths being very small.
The Shakers have always been
known as q most upright and honorable
people, and their success in the manu-
facture of medicines has also been
well known. 1t is therefore not sur
prising to find them pursuing very
original and novel plan for the intro
duction Of their remedy for dyspepsia.
These fearing people, whose
motto has always been Try all things
and hold fast that which is good, u
have put upon the market ten cent
sample bottles of their product, or
sufficient to give it trial.
The Shaker Digestive Cordial is SO
prompt in it's action that for the tri-
vial sum of ten cents, person can
usually determine as to whether or
not 1t meets the requirements of his
case. There are forms of dyspepsia
which it won't help, but these are
very rare. In most cases the first dose
relieves Sill distress, and an increase
of appetite at once follows.
All druggists have it, and the next
time you are troubled with indlges-
ton send cut and try this popular
product. 1t represents nearly hun
dred years of patient investigation
and study.
