the women OF the city are increasing
their longevity by the simple life. In
the weekly official health bulletin, is

Evans declares that few centuries
Will see Chicago an Adamlcss Eden.
DR.. Evans draws his conclusions
from the death rate in Chicago for
twenty years, and particularly in the
last seven months. when five mem
Tiers OF the stronger sex died for
every two of the faircr.
Or. Evans makes the startling state
mont that during the last seven
months of 1907 in Chicago about l2,0o0
men succumbcd ms compared 10 COCO
women. He SAYS that In the last year
tho ratio of difference In the death
rate between men and women had
been thirty against less than ten per
cent, twenty years ago. The cause
of this is attributed by the physician
to the strenuous life.
Contributory causes arc the quick
lunch, constant exposure, and care.

It's ten to oneit was old dyspepsia
slyly getting in his work, not enough to
cause you pain, but just enough to dull
your brain, rob you of your vitality,
upset your liver and deplete your nerve
force. Maybe you don't think so, but
just try one package of my Biscuit and
see if they don't change ''blues" to a
bright, CHEEKY red make the old world
laugh in merry glee and put vigor and
vim in your life again.
National Bank President Kinner of
Clean, N. Y, had stomach trouble so
bad that he had to live on matted milk
and even that caused him pain-he ate
three biscuits and went to eating his
meals-sounds like a miracle. Well, l
have Mr.. Kinner's own letter to that
effect
W. G. Roach of Hornet, N. y, says he
hadn't been able to work for several
years-had dyspepsia so bad-after
eating my Biscuit two weeks he got
position and went to work. says he can
eat anything now and feels "tiptop."
This is only two of hundreds.
Mr.. Dyspeptic, have you ever heard of
the wonderful Biscuit that talks, that
really tells you itself what it can do
that's Meals. Five minutes after you
eat it the Biscuit begins to unfold it's
virtues and it will by actual demonstra-
ton prove to you more in regard to its
merits in ten minutes than | could
probably make you believe if | wrote
and read you ten books as large as the
dictionary.
1T seems like dream" swears Mr..
Charles F. Bowman. Gave me relief in
three minutes" says Mrs. w. H. Crut-
tenden. stopped my pain in two
minutes, swears Mr.. Joseph Fentiman,
You may know some of these people,
or know somebody who knows them.
I'll send you their pictures and full adj
dresses if you want them, so that you
can find all about my Biscuit and the
wonders it has wrought.
Probably you are now thinking
whether all this can be true-stop it!
Get up and go to W. B. Eastman's
store and get some of my Biscuit at
once and let them prove what say.
w. B. Eastman is your own fellow
townsman. He will give you his own
positive guarantee that if my Biscuit
doesn't reach your case, back your
money goes and no questions asked. Or
if you wish | will send you absolutely
free one large 25c package of my Dyspep-
STA Biscuit if you will send me 4 cents
to pay actual cost ofpostage. Cut out

| Invite Every Man,
Woman and Child Here
Livery Person of ST.. Johnsbury to Eat With Me
Tomorrow at My Expense

This is an invitation that YOU simply
cannot afford to ignore. I'll tell you
why.
I'm going to feed you on food that
helps digest all other foods, a food that
stops the sharp pangs of dyspepsia in
two minutes by the watch" so swears
Mr.. Henry Gray and many, many
Others.
A food that made Assistant Post
master Estes feel like two-year-old in
a clover pasture"
A food that makes brains in five hours
and blood in four.
A highly nutritious, stomachic food,
made from the pineapple, and the paw
paw melon, figs, oranges, celery and a
few other good things for the nerves,
stomach and bowels.
You may be starving your blood and
brain in the midst of plenty. 1t isn't
how much you eat that counts, but it's
how you digest the food you eat.
You can't get steam out of water
without fire, you can't get brain power,
nerve force and blood corpuscles out of
food without digestion.
Thousands lack sufficient vital force
and don't know why.
They think they need a tonic. a vaca-
ton or change of scenery. But they
don't. It's old indigestion that's the
matter with them, and six days use of
my Biscuit will prove it.
They don't get the strength out of
their food. It's like running corn through
mill with the rollers too wide apart;
the corn goes through, but the mill
doesn't grind.
Don't think you must have pain to
have Indigestion.
Lack of flesh, too much fat. pimples,
blotches, sallow complexion, lack of
nerve force, impoverished blood, in
somnia headaches, weak brain power,
may all be due to faulty digestive pro-
cess either in the stomach or bowels.
Eat my Biscuit along with your other
food for week and find out how your
digestive organs are working. If the
Biscuit helps you greatly, gives you more
force, strength and brain power, you
may set it down that your stomach,
liver and bowels were doing their duty.
Only yesterday your head may have
felt dull and heavy; you had the "blues"
were cross, nervous or irritable; every
thing seemed to go wrong, and you
couldn't tell why.
