SCARED TO DEATH.

DR.. Francis W. Mcnamara of Chi
cago says: Millions of people are
made wretched every year or, perhaps,
have their lives shortened, by feeling
that they have heart disease. They
have a pain in that region, and their
own diagnosis is sufficient to convince
them of the malady. AS a matter OF
truth, there is seldom any pain from
heart disease. The trouble is indi-
gestion only. The stomach, lying just
under the heart, is distended to pain
full degree by gases, and, crowding to-
ward the heart, makes the pain seem
to be in that organ
This opinion simply confirms the
claim of DR.. w. B. Caldwell, who orig
mated the formula of Syrup Pepsin
the guaranteed cure for indigestion
and constipation: All druggists sell It
but be sure to ask for DR.. CaldloeH!
Syrup Pepsin.

"Gentlemen-I find Vogeler's Compound remedy
above all others; last year | was in thorough bad
state of health and could hardly drag leg after the
other had tried dozens of remedies advertised to
cure indigestion and all its attendant evils, but was
rapidly going from bad to worse when had the good
fortune to be recommended to take Vogelers Com
pound. l did SO, and am thankful to say it made a
new man of me. ! should like other people to know
its virtues, and how completely it knocks under the
worst forms of indigestion and dyspepsia.

Why Is 1t

That ST. Jacobs Oil always affords instant
relief from pains, after all other remedies
have signally failed1 Simply because it is
peculiar to itself, wholly unlike another rem
edy. 1t possesses great penetrating power,
reaching the very seat of the disease. 1t
acts like magic. 1t conquers pain quickly
and surely. 1t is an outward application,
and is used by millions of people.
