GIVE NATURE A CHANCE.

The strongest minds have gotten their
inspiration direct from Nature. Nature
is the great teacher of mankind. We
can look to Nature for all our needs In
the recent RuSSO-JapaneSe war the sur
geonS of the japanese navy and army
discovered that wounds would heal more
rapidly and with better success il lcft to
Nature. They washed the wounds with
water which had been boiled and thus
steriized then bandaged the wounds
with clean linen-no powerful drugs or
antiSeptcs were used in their first aid to
the injured. Such methods resulted in
the loss Of only 81 out of 6S2 men treated
in a naval hospital for their wounds. 1t
is only from lack of observing Natures
laws that most of us suffer at one time
or another from Indigestion, impure
blood and q generally rundown system.
| Our remedy lies in Natures laboratory
| deep in the fragrant woodS-where arc
many American plants, the roots Of

ply health-giving tonic.
Many years ago physician who had
| an extensive practice among the afflicted
made striking departure from the usual
methods OF his confreres in medicine-he
went straight to Nature for the cure OF
! those stomach disorders which resulted
so often in an anamic condition, or i'm

weakness. He found that the bark OF
the Black Cherry-trec, the root Of tho
Mandrake, Stone root, Queens root,
Bloodroot and Golden Seal root, made
| into scientific, nOn-alcOholic extract by
| the use of glyccrine, made the best altera-
! tive and tonic. Tho refreshing influence
/ of this extract is at once apparent in tho
recovered strength of the paticnt-tho
vital fires of tho body burn brighter and
their increased activity consumes tho
tissue rubbish which otherwise may
| poison the system. This Alternative and
! tonic extract has been found to stand
alone as safe, invigoratng tonic, as it
does not depend on alcohol for false
! stimulation, but IS Natures Olr1l method
of strengthening and cleansing the sys-
