This is what makes Poruna so popular.
The people try it and find that it cures
them.
Then they recommend it to others and
others try it, and so the work goes on.

What Whiskev

Cure the Drink Habit with
Orrine and Save Money.

Whiskey drinking does not pay
Take the lowest possible view, with
out counting the loss of friends, the
loss of business. the loss of manhood
that comes to the drunkard; consider
eimply the actual money paid out,
and see what it costs in dollars and
cents. Good authority states that
nearly one-third of the wages of the
laboring man goes over the bar. How
much are you contributing Figure
up for one month how much you
take from your wife and children
and pay out in exchange for drink.
The total will astonish you, and you
will swear Off
Will-power alone will not cure the
habit. Use Orrine, the only guaran-
