TAKE YOUR CHOICE.

Just take your choice. An attack of Fever,
with Quinine as the treatment means a
week or ten days lost from Business,
1t means ten days,Of unhappiqess for you

those who love you. If you are poor man,
your time is worth much to- your family.
The rich man might better afford to suffer
a loss of of $4,000 day, result from

First Of all, it is harmless Absolutely

Second it is quick; it acts at once. In 80
minutes after its administration, it enters
the blood and begins to undo the mischief

iclne that never disappOints. Now take
your choice Lie in bed for days, or maybe
weeks; and poison your digestion with Qui-
