The soldier was an inmate OF the

I.eavanworth.
About three years ago this same
soldier attacked another prisoner with
a knife. Then the government au-
thorities said he was insane and sent
him to the Washington asylum.
After his Incarceration the soldier
began to improve. and recently seem

 T used Parisian Sage for faillhlF 5 hair and find it the finest thing l ever heard of. My ilair was falling out by combs full, and I could run my fingers through it and they would hang full of loose hair.

My hair was lus- trous and nice and had almost stopped falling out, and bx the use of one more bottle it stopped altogether"
 For women. for men or for children.

To secure prompt and healthy digestion is the one necessary thing to do and when normal digestion is se- cured the catarrhal condition will have disappeared
 According to Dr. Harianson. the saf- est and best treatment is to use after each meal a tablet, composed of Dias- tase, Aseptic Pepsiu. a little Nux, Golden Seal and fruit acids. These tablets can now he found at all drug stores under the name Of Stuarts Dys- pepsia Tablets and not being q patent medicine can be used with perfect safety and assurance that healthy appetite and thorough digestion will follow their regular use after meals.
