Reward will be paid to any person who can find one atom of opium, chloral, morphine, cocaine, ether or chloroform in any form in any of Dr. Miles Remedies.
 This reward is offered because certain interruptions persons make false statements about these remedies. It is under stood that this reward applies only to goods purchased in the open market, which have not been tempered with in any way.
 Dr. Miles remedies cure by their soothing, nourishing, strengthening and invigorat- ing effects upon the nervous system, and not by paralyzing and weakening the nerves as would be the case if these drugs were used.
 For this reason Dr. Miles, Anti-Pain Pills are universally considered the best pain remedy
 q have suffered for 25 years with severe pains in my head heart and back, and have tried everything I could get and could not find any relief until l got box of Dr. Miles Anti Pain Pills. I suffered as long as 12 hours at a time with such severe pains that I feared I would lose my mtnd. The Anti-Paln Pills gave me relief in from 10 to 20 minutes. I do not have to use Morphine any more. I wish you would publish this so that other sufferers may find relief"
