King Edwards Forethought.

OF late years the Prince of Wales
has been more of a parsonage from a
political standpoint. This change was
entirely due to the king. The latter told
the Prince of Wales that, though he
himself had had to fulfill much public
duty during the life Of Queen Victoria.
yet he had been kept aloof from po-
litical and diplomatic influence and 1t
was not until his accession that he had
been able to show himself to the en-
pire in his true light He did not want
this to recur with his son.

Invented Manhattan Cocktail.

King Edward was accredited with
several inventions, among them being
the o'clock tea and the cocktail. The
latter, it may be remarked. has be-
come more popular in America than
the former. The kings cocktail is
said to have been almost identical
with the Manhattan Of today. Yet
King Edward was said to be rather
abstemious in regard to liquors.
A year before the death of Queen
Victoria the private secretary of Ed.
ward wrote his biography. from which
these interesting facts are condensed:
He never allows typewriter In his
house.
He spends 5000 year for tele-
grams.

to each guest at his table.

A FIERY TEMPER
Can Generally Re Traced to Chemicai
 Decomposition of the Blood


 Sudden outbursts of temper, tenn porary insanity, the so-called brain storms and other violent departures from level -headedness are now known to he the result of poisons. They are in the blood. And they are there pe- cause inactive kidneys cannot strain the uric and other acids from the blood. It is utterly waste of valuable time to fool with so-called kidney cures. The thing to do is to look after the storn- ach. get the food digesting properly nut those natural chemical elements into the blood which stimulate organic function.
 The new discovery, Curo Grains, has a wonderful influence upon kidney ac- tion. The effect is rapid. Many recen, experiments with people suffering from uric acid poisoning showed rapid disa puearance of irritable sensations.
 A pressure seems to be removed, the peculiar tension on the nerves, rapidity of thought, uncontrollable temper and other distresses are lifted. The results have been frequently commented upon by close observers as a wonderful con- tribution to medical progress.
 A free trial of Curo Grains can be had by mail If you will simply send your name and address to l.. c. Grains Co.,, 209 Pulsifer Bldg. Chicago, H. The regular package is sold by drug gists at 50 cents. or is mailed prepaid on receipt of price.

Put your mixing apparatus in order Have the stomach, intestines, liver kid news and bowels all chemically work ing right. They will mix the food and turn it into rich red blood. Let Curo Grains do all this for you. The oven of vour body is the millions of llttle capillaries that exchange this splendid Curo Grains blood for the dead blood in the myriad of tiny veins, This IS what produces bodily heat. But your stomach must have assistance of Curo Grains to extract from the food the iron. sulphur lime, salt, phosphorus and SO on, in order that the blood may he supplied with the necessary chemi- cal elements.
 Send to the L. c. Grains Co.,, 2o9 Fur sifer Bldg, Chicago, H., for 1ree trial of Curo Grains. Or If you are sick or ailing, go to the drug store and buy a 5O-cent bottle. You will get relief right away.

HOW TO GET WELL
Not How to Keep We'll But How ta
 Secure Health is the Serious Problem to Many.

Sick people want health. not advice Therefore this Is not a philosophers corner. There is too much of a ten- dency to tell sick people they need ex- ercise or they need this, that or the other. The quickest way to health is to use the recent medical discovery, Curo Grains.
 The reason is this-you get every bit of your bodily strength from your food If it doesn't digest properly tho body is deprived of these natural chem- ical elements of which it Is composed This was settled by the analysis of the human body Now, Curo Grains have the remarkable effect of causing a weak digestive system to take care of the food and thus enable the blood to distribute health building chemical elements all over the system. i Here is a simple statement of fact with a concise reason. And yet it would perhaps be more convincing If sick people would try these Curo Grains.
 If you send your name and address to L. c. Grains Co.,. 209 Pulsifer Bldg, Chicago, H., they will mail you a free trial package of Curo Grains.
 You can procure the large, regular size package of any druggist at 50 cepts, or it will be sent direct on res ceipt of price.

WILL SURELY
 LENGTHEN LIFE
Don't Worry About Your Health, But
 Adopt the New Plan of Living

large share of humanity are won- dering how many years they can hold off the grim reaper. People fear their kidneys are gone; lungs gone; liver gone; they have suspicious of cancer of the stomach; see themselves getting anaemic; are nervous and fear paraly- sis; they have catarrh that fills tho stomach full of gas visions of dropping dead of heart failure fill the mind. And yet all such symptoms of i'll health will quickly disappear if Curo Grains are used Here is remedy that exacts no nonsensical dieting; calls for no absurd exercises; exacts no faddish mental science. It Is simply a stimulant to the natural functional processes of the body and Is based upon the chemical components of the blood, and what 1t requires to make the tissues strong and healthy. and keep them so.
 Most people absolutely require Curo Grains. Their food only half digests. A constant stream of putrefaction en- ters the blood, destroys the active cells of the kidneys and liver, lowers the muscular tone of the bladder and or- gans of the lower abdominal region, and thus creates general bodily decline. It is not surprising that the nervous system, depending upon the blood sup ply for Its phosphorus and phosphates, becomes unstrung and leads to all sorts of disorders from nervous prostration to actual insanity. Ask your druggist for a 5o-cent box of Curo Grains or send your name and address to L. c. Grains Co.,, 2O9 Pulsifer Bldg, Chi- cago, Ill., ane they will send you by mall free trial of this wonderfully bracing remedy. It will not only make you feel strong and vigorous. but will surely lengthen your life.

WHY YOU ARE SICK
Your body is Deficient in Chemical
 Components.

Your body is Deficient in Chemical -. Components.
 When healthy man or woman sits
 down to hearty meal. the stomach
 receives jumbled-up mass of meat, vegetables. gravy. pie or pudding. fruit and so on. All of these foods contain what are known as ,elements-carbon, lime, sulphur, phosphorus, salt. sugar, and others. se,ast, & .'
 The stomach and intestines grind this mass into substance called chyle. It Is then separated, the hutritive elements entering the blood, the coarse, fibrous, non -nutritive portion passing on to the large bowel to be evacuated. But when the stomach, and intestines are not strong enough to handle that hearty meal, they do not secret the acids and digestive juices required to chemically separate the elements. Thus. instead of entering the blood, they pass along to the large bowel. the blood be- comes impoverished, the body suffers for want of carbon, phosph orus and the other necessary elements. And the body complains; 1t is sick. ailing, dis 
 tressed. For centuries people have blindly taken medicine for symptoms. But today. in the light of modern medical knowledge. we have that great est of all medical discoveries. Curo Grains.
 With the assistance of this remark able medicine. the digestive organs chemically change the food into It's components and provide the rich, red blood that insures restoration to per feet health.
 These wonderful Curo Grains are sold at all drug stores at 50 cents a pack age, but if you will send your name and address to L. C. Grains Co.,. 209 Pull sifer Bldg. Chicago, they will main you free trial. so you can test them your self.

STAGNANT BOWELS
Cesspool in the Body Inviting Certain

A Cesspool in the Body Inviting Certain Destruction.
 Aside from the nutritive chemical ele- ments in our food there are more or less substances which are of a poison ous nature. These are hurried along into the bowels to be cast out. There are also waste materials, such as toma- to, berry and other seeds, the fibre of meats and vegetables. undigested pulpS particles as of apples. beets and other materials which an overstrained di- gestive system fails to utilize. In con stipation all these substances mingls into a mass of corruption, their dis ease- breeding Influence Is spread al over the system and according as any particular symptom is noted the disease is given a name. It may appear as ec- zema, rash, nausea, vomiting, bilious ness. severe headache, anemia and sc on.
 Constipation is thus direct menace to the general health and is best treat ed by the new discovery, Curo Grains This is not laxative, but 1t acts on the food, helps prepare 1t for blood, stimu- ulates the natural secretions of the in- testines and bowels, tones the muscu- lar action of the bowels, and laxative Is rarely needed except in cases where the constipation has been chronic.

|CATARRH OF

The Universal Faint That Deals Daily Misery to Millions.

Ine UniVersal lHiut Inat Deals DulIy
 Misery to Millions.
 How many people fully realize that catarrh> of the stomach, intestines and bowels is the source of their illness? And yet this universal taint is at the bottom of most bodily misery.
 This fact was fully demonstrated by the action of Curo Grains, a new rem edy based upon the chemical require- ments of the human body. It furnishes the stimulant which abnormally in- creases the secretion of gastric and other juices. It causes catarrhal in- fiammation to subside, and thus en- ables the stomach to digest food prop erly. All such sensations as sour stom- ach, heartburn, gas pressure. heart |palpitation, heaviness and belching van ish like imps of darkness when the light Is turned on.
 Curo Grains has been placed In the hands of druggists to be distributed at 50 cents a package, but to enable ev- erybody to realize their wonderful res- torative effect, a free trial package Is mailed to anyone sending their name and address to l.. c. Grains Co.,, 209 Pulsifer Bldg, Chicago, III.
