passed away with the lapse of time,

Mrs. A. G. Tuson, of Live-nore, Cal,
writes: Il picked up from my door
step one day a little book in which l
0 became very much interested.
My little girl Of five years of age had
been troubled for a long time with
loss OF appetite, extreme nervousness
and undue fatigue. She was all run-
down and in a very delicate condition.
This little book was very compre-
hensively written, and told of the new
method of extracting the medicinal ele-
ments of the Gods liver from the oil,
eliminating the obnoxious oil which is
SO hard for children to take.
"tJust the thing said I, for my little
daughter and I Immediately went for

flesh and strength, and she does not
