to wake up the liver and bowels and thereby help the kidneys a little, too, and so on. But when you sit down and add up all the different things the biscuit ought to do, the result isn't half as large as what the biscuit does do.
 But the thing that concerns you is to get well. You don't care how. The bis cult is best for dyspepsia, stomach, liver and bowel troubles, insomnia, pimples, blotches, nervousness, melancholy, "blues," bad blood and rundown con- ditions of the system, but it's also a wonder for diseases of the heart, skin and nervous system produced by stom- ach troubles-and many of them are.
 Don't take my word. but read what others say. National Bank President Kinner of Clean, N. r., writes as fol- lows: 'I have suffered from dyspepsia and stomach trouble for five years. Re- gently it got so bad that I was com- pelled to live on matted milk, and even the matted milk caused me considerable pain, and eating any other kind of food was practically out of the question. My attention was called to Nears Dyspepsia Biscuit, and I obtained a package. After eating the third biscuit I ate a piece of toast, an egg and some fruit, with no unpleasant effects whatever. I regard the results the biscuit has produced as most marvellous. It is by far the best thing I have ever tried"
 I would like you to read compli- mentary copy of my magazine, called strenuous Life" It's full of intensely interesting information for sick folks. Most everybody is carried away with the magazine, except the undertaken and the sexton-and there's a reason I'm somewhat in competition with them. My business is making folks well.
 Won't you eat at my expense? You have probably been paying for your own food a good while-now let some ono else help pay for 1t.
 I'll give you one large 25-cent package of my Dyspepsia Biscuit and Fig Choco- lates absolutely free. if you will send 4 cents to pay the actual cost of postage at merchandise rates. Remember, you pay the postage only. I give you the Bis cult, pay the expense of packing etc., myself. This is not a small sample pack age, but a regular 25-cent package. This offer is good to one person for one time only. Eat my Biscuit at my expense, then tell your friends how you like them, what they did for you-thats all. Cut out and use coupon below.

I take my own treatment. It cured me after I suffered 20 years and took enough pills, tablets, patent medicines and predigested foods to fill a barrel. My Biscuit does business in two min utes by the watch; yet it's made from fruits, grain and vegetable products combined with proper blending agents, so that it's acceptable to the most del- icate stomach. It doesn't interfere with your doctors treatment, nor anything else you make be taking.
 I absolutely guarantee it contains no opium. morphine, cocaine, nor any other narcotic drugs, or forfeit s1,00o in gold.
 You don't understand it? Well to be frank with you, I don't either. But after a long series of costly experi- ments, I finally Unit upon an idea" and made a condensed biscuit that l thought would help me, and it did; it cured melt cured others, too. Whats more, 1t cured some diseases it wasn't made to cure.
 accidentally produced something that far transcended my own knowledge and intentions-a good deal like Columbus. when he started out for the East Indies and discovered America.
 I have studied medicine, chemistry and science, I am an author of school books; have delivered scientific lectures before medical schools, colleges and universities, and supposed to know a thing or two about what kind of remedies cure: but can't explain the biscuit; some of the cures it performs are beyond me-and can't find any one else who can ex- plain it to my satisfaction, either.
 Of course, the biscuit contains concen- trated pineapple, and pineapple has a long family history, going back a hun dred years or so, as being good for the digestion. Then there's pawpaw, the fruit of the tropical melon tree: it looks like cantalope and tastes like one, but it grows on tree. The natives eat it when the stomach's too weak for anything else It's good food, though, any time-all the time. It's in the biscuit. You have heard your mother say figs were the best for the bowels-well, they are there, con densed and compressed. seeds and all. The little seeds are harmless, but they help do the business.
 Your grandmother always told you eel cry was good for the nerves; well, it's in the biscuit. Then there are things

CONVINCED.

I am more convinced than ever after a careful inspection, that you are making a mis- take, gentle reader, in not buy ing that fine residence 1 am of fering you on 12th Ave-, South. A moderate cash payment will swing the proposition. The present mortgage is at 51a per cent, and can doubtless be re- newed indefinitely. There is no question about the value of the house or lot. There is no question about the neighbor- hood. You want the place. The owner wants to sell. If your minds would meet, as the law yers say, a trade would be the result. Neither you nor the owner disagree as to the actual values represented. You hesi- tate, simply because you don't want to buy quite so large a place. But if you get a large place for the price of a small place, why delay? Some one is going to miss bargain.
