A Remedy That No One Is
Afraid To Take.

DR.. Thacher's Liver and Blood Syrup
has been used in thousands Of homes for
fifty-two years with perfect confidence
and the most remarkable results.
The great success of this remedy is due
to the fact that its formula (Which con-
sists of Buchu, Hydrangea, Mandrake,
Yellow Dock, Dandelion, Sarsaparilia,

has been freely published.
Doctors and Druggists everywhere do

ularities of the Liver, Kidneys Or Blood,
and the diseases caused by the failure of
these functions to perform their proper
work.
Thousands of sick ones to whom life

THE EDITORS WIFE.
Letter From an Illinois Newsp aper
Man That ia Well Worth Reading.

as usual thing editors save the
good things for the columns Of their
own newspapers, but the following
letter from S. Fl. Duncan, editor Of
the Seaton, ILL.,, Independent, shows
that there is at least one editor who
wants to help others. He writes as
follows:
"To thesEditor of the Intelligencer:
wish you would print the follow
ing and thus help me to do kindness
to your readers. My wife has been q
great ssufferer with stomach troubles
for thes past four years, aud the last
two years practically an invalid.
Nothing seemed to help her until l
procured box of Mi o-na, nature 8
cure for indigestion. This gave her
80 much relief that she continued
using the remedy until now she en-
joys her meals, is relieved from all
pain in her stomach and has increased
in flesh.
l hope you:will publish this letter,
for I think there is 20 remedy for
stomach trouble equal to Mi.o.na, and
the more vide spread its use becomes,
the more good will be done to human.

Editor Of Independent"
Evans Pharmacy have the local
agency for Mi-o.na and their faith il
its merits equals Editor Duncan 8.
They, in fact, offer to pay for Mi-o-na
themselves in sny case where it does
not give satisfaction. No stronger
endorsement of the merits Of the rem
edy can be given than this, that

medicine on their own guarantee to
refund the money if it does uot cure

After a profound silence of some
time, he said, "Well, l don't know

Consumption is a human

The best lung fertilizer is
SCOTS Emulsion. Salt pork
is good too, but it is very hard

The time to treat consump-
ton is when you begin trying

Others see it, you won't.
Don't wait until you can't
deceive yourself any longer.
Begin with the first thought
to take SCOTS Emulsion. If
it isn't really consumption 50
much the better; you will soon
forget it and be better for the
treatment. If it is consump-
ton you can't expect to be
cured at once, but if you will
begin in time and will be

ment you will win.

TYPHOID GERMS.

The microscope shows that in the blood
of every person suffering from typhoid the
little germs can be found as shown above.
They are supposed to get into the water or
milk we drink. The germs multiply so
that one germ is capable OF producing
ty-four hours. That is why if they ever
get into the water supply of town they
multiply so fast that nearly everybody
drinking the water comes down with the
disease. There are exceptions, however,
and they are the persons whose health is
perfect, whose blood is pure, and liver
active. When the germs get into healthy
body they are thrown off with the other
poisons Recent Chicago statistics show
that one-eighth of all the deaths in the
past two years i'll that city have resulted
from pneumonia.
The best advice we can give is to put the
body into perfectly sound, healthy condi-
ton. Be assured that you have rich, red
blood and an active liver.
Many years ago DR.. r. V. Pierce, who is
consulting surgeon to the 1nvalids' Hotel
and Surgical Institute at Buffalo, N. Y,
found certain herbs and roots which, when
made into an Alternative extract without
the use of alcohoD, seemed to be the very
best means of putting the stomach, blood
and vital organs into proper condition.
This seemed to him as close to nature 8
way of treating disease as it was possible
to go. For over third of century DR..
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery has had
a wonderful sale and the cures resulting
from its use are numbered by thousands.
It is tissue builder, better than cod liver
oil because it does not sicken the stomach,
or offend the taste. 1t strengthens or
renews the assi11ilative or digestive pro-
cesses in the stomach and puts on healthy
flesh when the weight of the invalid is
reduced below the normal.
Accept no substitute for vGolden Med
ical Discovery" Nothing else is "just a.
good"
DR.. Pierce's Pellets cure biliousness.
