Hobart's Vin-seng Tonic

Is a stomach builder. 1t creates an
appetite and makes you feel like eat
ing your own shirt off abe fence. As
a result it tones up and builds up the
entire system and symptoms of dis
ease disappear. We have never
known a case of stomach trouble that
Vin-Seng Tonic did not help. For
over two years we have made this
offer: if Vin-Seng Tonic does not do
all we claim for it we will refund the
money. No purchaser ever came
back after his money. Every bottle
sold carries that guarantee. We sell
three bottles of Vin-Seng Tonic for
$1.25. Single bottles, SO cents.

In Kingman county a tally was kept
of the voters who failed to vote for
any candidate for certain offices. For
instance. 1913 ballots expressed no
choice for state treasurer. They were
practically all Republican ballots.
They were cast by Republicans who
would not vote for Kelly but who did
not like to vote for a Democrat. 1t is
undoubtedly true that many thousand
Republicans did that very thing. Not
withstanding the failure of these Re
publicans to vote for Kelly's opponent
he lost the county by 426 plurality
while Roosevelt carried it by $50. If
all Republicans who refused to vote for
Kelly had voted for his opponent
Kelly would have lost the county by
S24. This ratio kept up over the state
would have defeated him. There were
PIT ballots in Kingman county which
did not indicate choice for president
They were practically all those of
fusionists who would not vote for
Parker but who did not like to vote for
a Republican.

It's Your Stomach.

If you're run down, nervous or de-
bilitated, nine times out of ten it's
your stomach. Three-fourths of the
cases of heart disease are really stom-
ach trouble. Sleeplessness is the re-
suit of a condition of the nerves pro-
duced by stomach trouble. Consti-
patton comes from a failure of the
stomach to do it's work properly. Fix
the stomach and symptoms of catarrh
