ANCIENT
TORTURE
How it has Been Revived
in Modern Times.

An ancient method Of poisoning
criminals was to force them to swal-
low large quantities of bulls blood.
Bulls blood is really no poison at all.
Yet the prisoner usually died in agony.
This was caused by the coagulation or
hardening OF the bulls blood in the
stomach. The pressure OF this solid
mass on the heart, lungs and other vital
organs almost always resulted fatally.
That's just like Indigestion. II
your food doesn't digest it remains in
hard lump in the stomach. Gases are
formed, which crowd and sometimes
actually diSplace ether organs. Many
cases OF supposed heart disease are due
to indigestion. The pressure upon the
lungs interferes with breathing. A dis
orderedstomache effects the whole body.
by the use OF such a preparation as
KOdol Dyspepsia Cure all this trouble
is removed. Before food can be assimi-
lated into the system it must be re-
duced to proper condition by the di.
gestive fluids. If any of these fluids
are lacking, perfect digestion Is inn
possible. KOdol Dyspepsia Cure sup
plies the missing fluids. Stomach
troubles can't be cured by dieting.
The system demands both a suff1ciency
and u variety of food. You can't get
well or stay well without 1t. Kodol
Dyspepsia Cure enables the stomach
to take care of any kind of good food.
1t renders dieting unnecessary. 1t
digests what you eat. In this way
1t rests the stomach This rest soon
restores thestomach to perfect health.
Kodol Dyspepsia Cure helps the
children too. Weak and sickly little
ones thrive on 1t. 1t never fails.
During the last few years my stom.
ach was in such condition that
couldn't retain the food ate" writes

RATHER WAS IN LOG.


Sylvania, Ga, Sept. pa negro
man near Captola, in this county, went
'possum hunting one night last week,
hollow log he ran his hand in the
hole to pull out the supposed 'possum;
but something bit him on the hand,
and afraid to tackle it again, he gave
up the hunt and went home. His
hand had swollen so badly by the next
morning, that some of his neighbors
went with him to the place and cut
open the log, when they found large
rattlesnake within. The negro, when
he saw what it was that had bitten
him, went into commissions and died
several hours afterwards. 1t is not
thought that the bite would have killed
him if he had not discovered that it
was that of a rattlesnake.
