The Stomach is the Man.

A weak stomach weakens the
man, because it cannot transform
the food he eats into nOurish-
ment. Health and strength can
not be restored to any sick man
or weak woman without first re-
storing health and strength to the
stomach. A weak stomach cannot
digest enough food to feed the
tissues and revive the tired and
run down limbs and organs of the
body. Kodol Dyspepsia Cure di-
gests what you eat, cleanses and
strengthens the glands and mem
branes of the stomach, and cures
indigestion, dyspepsia and all
stomach troubles. Sold by Opera

dramatic success, 'The Johns

abounds in stirring sentiments,
exciting interest, breathless sus-
penses and happy climaxes. Its
beautiful language and sublime

comedy and history, excel the
best of modern plays.
