The Mammoth and the Mosquito

What has come to pass in thousands of
years seems hardly credible. Primitive
man, Il weakling i'll comparison to modern
ln.i:I WAS able to conquer the huge mon
steers of thousands of years ago, such
the .MlU,D:0th. and to-day they are dead
forever; yet the mosquito and fly have
never been conquered. 1t is now time
for the scientist to devise methods for kill
ing the mosquito and fly, so that they will
go To Join the mammoth and the monster
lizards. The mosquitoes and flies are dan
geTouS enemies of man because they spread
cuntagiuu. The mosquito often carries the
germ OF malaria with his bite. The house
flv spreads germs OF disease over our food.
These bacterial germs. ever hunting for
the weak spot, find place i'll our blood,
and then We suffer from grip. CatarrE, con-
sumption or malaria.
Or. r. V. Pierce, chief consulting physi-
clan to the lnvalids' Hotel and Surgical
Institute, at Buffalo, n. ", says: There
would be no grip epidemics. the germs of
consumption. or malaria would find no
place i'll the human economy, II the blood
were pure. if the lungs. heart and other
organs were fed on good blood. Polsons
should not be allowed to accumulate in the
body; TO be safe it is best to take gentle
laxative at least once week. Such
vegetable laxative rs DR.. Pierce's Pleasant
Pellets contains nothing which could harm
the system.
For putting the blood i'll order, and as a
tissue builder and tonic for those weakened
by coughs, colds. catarrl, grip, nothing will
