INDIGESTION
A Disorder that Breeds Dis- ease in the Body, and an Easy Way to Cure 1t.

Take care of the stomach and you will have little need for the doctor.
 When the stomach begins to show signs of disorder; when the food digests slowly and with discomfort; when you have heartburn; feel bloated and uneasy. you are in condition that needs atten- ton.
 Prickly Ash Bitters corrects the dis ordered stomach by strengthening and toning up the digestive organs, driving the badly digested food into the bowels and thence out of the system.
 Constipation is nearly always pres ent when the stomach becomes sour or disordered. Prickly Ash Bitters con. tains the medicinal qualities which act as restorative and regulator for the stomach and bowels. It strengthens the digestive organs, cures constipation and prevents the return of bilious conditions.
 Thousands of people who have re- ceived lasting benefit from this great remedy willingly testify to its power in curing indigestion, constipation and kid ney trouble.
 "I suffered from constipation for years, and tried many remedies, but Priekiy Ash Bitters is the only medicine that has ever done me any good. Through its use am now in good health and entirely free from all traces of my former troubie."-B. P. srIeALL, winnsboro, Louisiana.

get legally and under decent circum-
stances.
The saloon system, with its attrac-
tive mirrors, mixed drinks, congenial
conviviality, pool room attachments,
breed trouble for the youth and the
weak of our state. 1t Is the social
drink in the saloon that is the curse
of mankind. The dispensary system
furnishes no such alluring inducements
to drink. The nan who must have
his toddy" has to get 1t under ciscum-
stances that do not beguile him into
the habit. The boy stays at home and
finds no taste for the raw drink out OF
q bottle. Temperance is encouraged
and promoted.
The corruption Of the past Is over
and the people Of the state, through
their legislature next year, will get
legislation that will purify and satisfy.
Because there was corruption in the
great City Of Philadelphia the city was
not wiped off the map. 1t was the
corrupt politicians who were sent into
oblivion. Because corrupt men In the
postofice department made thousands
out of the government was no reason
for the abolition Of the department.
The men were punished and the OPP
purtunities for graft were reduced to
the minimum. Because q human be!
ing is sinful and does wrong, we do
not cnt his head off to cure him. We
try to reform and make him better,
and we generally succeed.
The policy Of the prohibitionist
should be directed towards supporting
any law that reduces this consumption
of drink; that promotes sobriey; that
aims to keep temptation away from
the young and the weak.
