Remarkable Electric Device to Produce
Wireless Current That Quickly

and Other Organs.

We yant to call the attention of our
readers to 4 remarkable electric device
which seems already to have exploded
many pet theories of physicians and
scientists. and to have produced posi-
tive wonder to those who have used it,
This new invention is called Electro

ducing together. il is stated, an un-
noticeable yet effective current through
out the entire body, permeating the
vital organs purifying and correcting
diseased conditions. regulating vital
functions. and strengthening the nerves
almost beyond description.
1t proves at last that electricity is
not only life, but health and vigor un-
surpassed. 1t has already produced as
Troubles, kidney Complaints. Back
Pains. Lumbago, Insomnia. Weak Heart
Rheumatism. Nervous Prostitution, Neu-
ralgia and Weak Nerves
These results are not fanciGul. but al
ready proven. For those who have re
lied on medicines for curing the above
diseases these Eiectropodes come as n
distinct revelation.
Those who wear them report an in
health to every organ. the nerves, asd
entire body. Nothing like ii has ever
been found.
Electropodes are peculiar metallic in
SOles in appearance. insulated and so
placed in the heels of the shoes as to
be unnoticeable TO the wcarer. They
are never uncomfortable. indeed, were
IL not for the glow of energy ard
health You would never know you had
them on. They are different from any
other electric device in that they pro-
duce a current only when in actual use.
ElectrOpodes have already been dis
tributed so YOU can now get them at
any drug store at 81 a pair. To prove
to you that they do the wonderful
things claimed for them. the druggist
signs a legal binding contract that IL
YOU are not perfectly satisfied with

There is only one way to cure deafness
and that is by constitutional remedies

condition of the mucous lining of the

inflamed you have a rumJling sound

entirely closed, deafness is the result
and unless the Inflammation can he

How to Make Better
Cough Syrup Than You
Can RuV.

A full pint of cough syrup
enough to last a family a long
time-can be made by the rec
ipe given below in five minutes,
for only ga cents. Simple as it
is, there is nothing better at
any price. 1t usually stops a
deep-seated cough in "a hours
and is a splendid household
remedy for whooping cough,
colds, hoarseness, bronchitis,
etc.
Take a pint of granulated
sugar, add one-half pint warm
water and stir about two min
utes. Put 21a ounces Pinex
in a pint bottle and fill up with
syrup. Take a teaspoonful ev-
cry one, two or three hours.
1t keeps perfectly and the taste
is pleasing.
The chemical elements of
pine which are very healing to
membranes, are obtained in
high proportion in Pinex. the
compound of Norway white
pine extract. None of the
weaker pine preparations will
work with this recipe. Your
druggist has Pinex or can cas-
lily get it for you.
Strained honey can be used
instead of the syrup, and makes
very fine honey and pine tar
cough syrup.
