A trial package Of Munyon's Paw Paw
Pills will be sent free to anyone on re-
quest. Address Professor Munyon, SD &
jefferson Sts., Philadelphia, Pa. If you are
in need of medical advice, do not fail to
write Professor Munyon. Your commune
cation will be treated in strict confidence,
fully as though you had personal inter.
view.
Munyon's Paw Paw Pills are unlike
all other laxatives or cathartics. They
coax the liver into activity by gentle
methods. They do not scour, they do
not grippe, they do not weaken, but they
do start all the secretions of the liver
and stomach in way that soon puts
these organs in healthy condition and
corrects constipation. In my opinion
constipation is responsible for most all
ments. There are 26 feet of human
bowels, which is really sewer pipe.
When this pipe becomes clogged the
whole system becomes poisoned, caus-
ing biliousness, indigestion and impure
blood, which often produce rheumatism
and kidney ailments. No woman who
suffers with constipation or any liver
ailment can expect to have a clear
complexion or enjoy good health. II
had my way / would prohibit the sale
of nine tenths of the cathartics that are
now being sold for the reason that they
soon destroy the lining of the stomach
setting up aerious forms of indigestion
and so paralyze the bowels that they re
fuse to act unless forced by strong
purgatives.
Munyon's Paw Paw Pills are a tonic
to the stomach, liver and nerves. They
invigorate instead of weaken; they en-
rich the blood instead Of impoverist
it; they enable the stomach to get al
the nourishment from food that is put
into it.
These pills contain no calomel, ne
dope; they are soothing. healing and
stimulating. They school the bowels
TO act without physic.

Chadbourn, N. C.-In letter from this place, Mrs. NJ. D. McPherson says: T suffered five years with aw- full pains. They grew worse, till at all, for two or three days at time, and had an awful hurting in my side, and headache, and backache. l could not do anything.
 I gave up, and thought I would die, but my husband said, Let's try Car dui.' So I began and the first bottle helped me, and l could do my cooking, and by the time the third bottle was used, 1 could do all my work.
 The Cardui home treatment will do more than you recommend it to do. All the people around said l would die, but thanks to Cardui, I was re- lieved."
 Cardui is composed of gentle-acting, herb ingredients. It's action is mild and natural, and it has no bad after eHeCts, de nave lndiiy ol tue pomeiIui drugs sometimes recommended.
 No other medicine or tonic has ex- aetly the same results as Cardui.

A trial package of Munyon's Paw Paw Pills will be sent free to anyone on re- quest. Address Professor Munyon, 53d & Jefferson Sts., Philadelphia, Pa. If you are in need of medical advice do not fail to write Professor Munyon. Your communi- cation will be treated in strict confidence, and your case will be diagnosed as care fully as though you had personal inter view.
 Munyon's Paw Paw Pills are unlike all other laxatiyes or cathartics. They coax the liver into activity by gentle methods. They do not SCOUT, they do not gripe, they do not weaken but they do start all the secretions of the liver and stomach in way that soon puts these organs in healthy condition and corrects constipation. In my opinion constipation is responsible for most ail- ments. There are 26 feet of human bowels, which is really a sewer pipe. When this pipe becomes clogged the whole system becomes poisoned, caus- ing biiousness, indigestion and impure blood, which often produce rheumatism and kidney ailments. No woman who suffers with constipation or any liver ailment can expect to have a clear complexion or enjoy good health. If l had my way I would prohibit the sale of nine-tenths of the cathartics that are now being sold for the reason that they soon destroy the lining of the stomach, setting up serious forms of indigestion, and so paralyze the bowels that they re- fuse to act unless forced by strong purgatives.
 Munyon's Paw Paw Pills are a tonic to the stomach, liver and nerves. They invigorate instead of weaken; they en- rich the blood instead of impoverish it; they enable the stomach to get all the nourishment from food that is put into it.

 Shortsighted people demand the abolition of the fly. Little do they realize that without the fly the de- mand for window screens would fail, thus destroying one of our leading in- dustries The window screens them selves are not so much, but think of throwing out of employment the hun dreds of thousands of men who charge 60 cents an hour for putting the screens tn each spring. Also the market for sticky paper and for in- genious fly-swatters would end

PUNCHING HIS HARD LUCK
Sufferer From Toothache Summoned Philosophy to Ills Aid During
 Period of Trouble.

Philosophers are not all dead yet" said the dentist. T met one this morning who knocked me out of two hours work on a day when I have nothing to do anyhow, and will make me work overtime tomorrow, when I shall be crowded with engagements. He was bowling with toothache.
 Better come around and have it at tended to-" I said.
 Cant do it today" he said. Pm too busy"
 But you cant work when you are crazy with the toothache," I argued.
 "Oh, yes I can," said he. There are half dozen other things I want done to me that hurt pretty bad, and if 1 have them done when my tooth is on the rampage they won't seem so bad, because one hurt will neutralize the other. I always take advantage of a toothache to dispatch those dis agreeable jobs"
 Maybe not many people could stand that kind of philosophy, but ap- parently that man is going to get away with it."
