HONEST PHYSICIAN.
Works With Himself First,

1t is a mistake to assume that ply
sicians are always skeptical as to the
curative properties of anything else
than drugs.
Indeed, the best doctors are those
who seek to heal with as little use of
drugs as possible. and by the use OF
correct food and drink. A physician
writes from Calf. to tell how he made
a we'll man of himself with natures

cup (cafe noir) after my dinner and

oped, with pains in the cardiac region,

"The tea seemed to help me at first,
but in time the old distressing symp-
toms returned. and quit it also, and
tried to use milk for my table bever-
age. This l was compelled, however,
to abandon speedily, for while it re-
lieved the nervousness somewhat it
brought on constipation. Then by
happy inspiration l was led to try the

months ago. and still use It, I am 10
