DeWitt'S Little Early RiSerS do not
grippe nor weaken the system. They
cure billiousnesS, jaundice, constipa-
ton and inactive livers, by arousing
the secretiOnS. moving the bowels
gently, yet etfectually, and giving
such tone and strength to the glands
OF the stomach, liver and bowels that
the cause of the trouble is removed
entirely. These famous little pills
exert a decided tonic effect upon the
organs involved, and if their use is
continued for few days there will be
no return of the trouble.

infict punishment by imprisonment.

be inadequate. Orders from the court
requiring Il man to pay certain

be about the most promising corrective
