went to a nearby Office and telephoned
for the work gang. When he return.

saw that the passengers were on one
side of the track with the exception OF
one lady, who seemed to be afraid to
cross the rails.
When the conductor drew near she
asked, in timid voice: would l get
shock if put my foot on that rail?"
pointing to the nearest one.

FACTS IN NATURE.
Not Only Do We Get Inspiration From
Nature, But Health as Well

For people who are rundown and nerv-
ous, who suffer from indigestion or dys-
pepSia, headache, biliousness, or torpid
liver, coated tongue with bitter taste in
the morning and poor appetite, it be-
comes necessary to turn to some tonic or
strengthened which will assist Nature
and help them to get on their feet and
put the body into its proper condition. 1T
is becoming more and more apparent that
Natures most valuable health giving
agents are to be found In forest plants
and roots
Nearly forty years ago, DR. r. " Pierce,
now consulting physician TO the lnValids'
Hotel and Surgical Institute, at Buffalo,
N. V, discovered that by scientifically
extracting and combining certain medici
nal principles from native roots taken
from our American forests, he could pro-
dlce medicine which was marvelously
efficient in curing cases of blood disorder
and liver and stomach trouble as we'll as
many other chronic, or lingering all
ments. This concentrated extract of
Natures vitality lie named "Golden Med
ical Discovery" 1T puriGes the blood by
putting the stomach and liver into
healthy condition, thereby helping the
digestion and assimilation of food which
feeds the blood Thereby it cures weak
stomach Indigestion, torpid liver or bill
ionsness, and kindred arrangements
If you have coated tongue, with bitter
or bad taste in tina morning frequent
headaches, feel weak, easily tired, stitches
or pain in side. back gives out easily and
aches, belchng of gas constipation. or
irregular bowels, feel flashes OF heat al
ternating with chilly sensations or kim
bred symptoms, they point TO derange-
ment of your stomach liver and kidneys,
which the Golden Medical Discovery"
will correct more speedily and perma-
nently than any other known agent Com
tains no alcohol or habit forming drugs.
All it's ingredients printed in plain Eng
lish Oh wrapper.
The sole motive for substitution Is to
permit the dealer to make little more
profit. He gains; you lose Accept no sub
stitute for Golden Medical Discovery"

you join the army of 'plain old com.

after you have been 2 or 8 weeks on
the Grape-Nuts training you write
statement of how you used to be and
how you are now. The simple facts
will interest others and surprise your.
self We never publish names except
on permission, but we often tell the
facts in the newspapers, and when
requested give the names by private
letter.
There is plenty of time to get per.
sonal experience with Grape-Nuts and
write sensible, truthful letter to be
sent in with the list of words, as the
contest does not close until April 3Oth.
1906. So start in as soon as you like
to building words, and start in using
Grape-Nuts. Cut this statement out
and keep the letters Y-I-O-Grape-Nuts

We make the prediction that some
who win prize of gold or greenbacks
