For Catarrh
Medicine Free in Every Case
Where 1t Fails to Relieve

Neglect or pessimisn, we believe,
is the greatest enemy the public has
to contend with when applied to the
loss or recovery of health. Practically
every case of consumption might
have been cured if hope had been
maintained and proper treatment had
been resorted to at the first symptom
of the disease. Until the advanced
stage is reached consumption is cur
able. Catarrh is responsible, we be-
1ieve, for many cases of consumption.
1t is about catarrh we want to talk to
you today, incidentally consumption,
since the two are so closely allied.
We have a medicine made from a
prescription of one of the most sue
cessful catarrh specialists known. We
believe it is positively without an
equal. We are so satisfied that we are
right, that we will supply the medi-
cine free in every instance where it
is used according to directions for a
reasonable length of time, should it
fail to give satisfaction in every par
ticular. We want every one to try
this medicine at our risk. There are
no conditions attached to our offer.
We put the user under no obligation
to us whatever.
The medicine we want you to try
is Rexall Mucu-Tone. It is a catarrh
remedy that. goes direct to the seat
of trouble. 1t is carried by the blood
to every part of the system. 1t puri-
fies and enriches the blood, tones up
the mucous cells, and brings about a
condition of health and strength that
! tends to prevent the germs of con-
sumption from getting a start. Be
sides this, Rexall Mucu-Tone is a
wonderful appetizer. digestive aid

The brothers thought he was a bit too
awkward to pitch. His arms were tre-

and pick up apples without STOPPING.
That immense length of arm has been
one of his physical advantages that has
gone to make him the greatest of all

Out of State.

Guthrie, Ok, Jan. 25.-A bill il
now being drawn to prevent the pip
ing of gas from Oklahoma. The Van
deventer bill. enacted by the first
state legislature, to keep Oklahoma
gas at home, failed of its purpose.
and another attempt is to be made.
It is understood. too, that Gov. Has
kell will submit special message
recomme ending such legislation.
The new bill will seek to limit the
pressure on gas pipe lines, following
the Indiana law. 1t is maintai~ ed
that 800 pounds pressure to the
square inch will carry gas but fifty
to seventy-five miles. The trainers
of the bill, too, are going on the as
sumption that in Northern Oklahoma
the natural gas is fast waning, espec-
tally in the Usage Indian country,
and, therefore, that pumping stations
on the Kansas side of the Oklahoma
border would have little effect on Ok
lahoma gas henceforward.
