cause pimples, blotches, skin eruptions
and wretched complexion. Electric

to regulate stomach, liver and kidneys
and to purify the blood. 1t gives strong
nerves, bright eyes, smooth, velvety skin,
rich complexion. 1t will make a good
looking, charming woman of rundown

until the doctor should arrive. In few
hours he returned, saying the doctor
need not come, as the child was much
better. The druggist, Mr.. Otto Scholz,

slant demand for it from that part of
the country. For sale by The Stiles

you distribute through their systems.

as much. All grocers sell it. 12c. and
