Safe Treatment for Headache.

The rational treatment for headache
is to get at the cause, if possible, ana
remove 1t. Headache is only a symp-
tom of trouble somewhere in the sys-
tenn, and dosing with tablets or powders
containing acetanilid or other coal-tar
derivatives which stop the pain tempo
rarily but weaken the heart, is at once
unsafe and unwise. The headache may
come from your eyes, then good ocu-
list can help you at once with proper
eyeglasses; but if it comes with furred
tongue, loss of appetite, nausea, and
constipation, it is usually the result
of disordered digestion, or torpid liver,
| and one or two doses of L. F. Atwood s
Medicine will speedily help you by
carrying off impurities and restoring
the clogged digestive organs to their
normal activity. In using this old re,
liable remedy, you take no chances of
weakening the hearts action.

Premier Laurier issued his uItimatum
last Monday warning the Opposition that

would resort to the only other measure
left open to him-an appeal to the cleo
