OF All the Seasons
or the Year .,

That period which marks change
from winter into the lap Of spring is the
most dangerous. 1t is the time when the
Air Is filled with disease, when the wind
watts pneumonia and other pulmonary
trouble with every breeze. The fatalities
Of this character are simply alarming, and
In spite Of all warnings they seem to be in
creasing. Pneumonia comes suddenly, it
acts quickly and far too often results fatal
ly. 10 check and repair the waste of such
disease is . problem every doctor seeks to
solve, and if he could only find some means
to replace the rapid waste of tissues In the
human structure faster than it goes on,
there Is no disease which he could rot con-
Quer. He is like the alchemists of olden
times, continually seeking the one magical
solvent which should turn all things into
gold. 1t is question of q stimulant and
experience tells him there is nothing to
equal Pure Whisky. Then, why not guard
against this evil disease by having always
In your medicine chest bottle of Pure Rye
or Bourbon Whisky? 1t is preventive as
well as cure. We have many brands and
various prices, but all are guaranteed absO-
lutely pure. We are the only wholesale
house selling goods at retail in any quantity
you may want.
