PHARMACY SUCCESSFUL

After a great deal of effort and
correspondence Dodson's Pharmacy,
the popular druggists, have succeeded
in getting the DR.. Howard Co. in
making special half price Introductory
offer on the regular fifty cent size of
their celebrated specific for the cure
of constipation and dyspepsia.
This medicine is a recent discovery
for the cure of all diseases of the
stomach and bowels. 1t not only
gives quick relief, but it makes per-
manent cures.
DR.. Towards specific has been so
remarkably successful in curing con-
stipation, dyspepsia and all liver trou-
bles, that Dodsons Pharmacy is
willing to return the price paid in
every case where it does not give
relief.
The old-fashioned idea of dosing
with mineral waters, eathartic pills
or harsh purgatives will soon be a
thing of the past. The best physi-
clans are prescribing DR.. Howard S
specific because it really gives the
desired results and on account of
, the small and pleasant dose that is
needed
Headaches, coated tongue, dizzi-
ness, gas on stomach, specks before
the eyes, constipation, and all forms
of liver and stomach trouble are soon
cured by thi scientific medicine
So great is the demand for this
specific that Dodson's Pharmacy has
been able to secure only a limited
supply, and every one who is trou-
bled with dyspepsia, constipation or
! liver trouble should call upon them al
once, or send e25 cents, and get sixty
! doses of the best medicine ever
made, on this special half price Offer
with their personal guarantee to re-
fund the money if it does not cure.

WAITER FINDS WATCH
VALUED AT $500

New York, Dec IA tiny gold
watch, richly studded with diamonds,
and worth $4,000, was the means of
earning for Eugene Trevise, a waiter
at the Plaza, a reward of 500 Friday,
the last day of his service in the hotel.
Mrs. A. A. McGregor, of "a West
Seventeen street, and party of
friends dined at the Plaza on Thanks
giving day. After leaving the hotel
and arriving at her home, Mrs. Nc
Gregor discovered that she had lost
her chatelaine watch At once she
notified the manager of the taxicab
company, one of whose cabs she had
hired to take her home, of her loss.
The chauffeur who had driven Mrs
McGregor denied having found the
watch in the cab, where Mrs. Nc
Gregor thought she had lost it. Then
Mrs. McGregor, at l o'clock in the
morning, telephoned to the Plaza and
told Night Superintendent Railing of
her loss. To her joy she learned that
her missing watch was being held at
the hotel office subject to her orders.

ough Trial.
There is only one test by which TO

and that is by its ability to do that
which it is intended to do. Many hair
vigors may look nice and smell nice,

No, they do not but Herpicide does,
because it goes to the root of the evil
and kills the germ that attacks the
papilla from whence the hair gets its
life.
