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,
and your case will be diagnosed as care
fully as though you had personal inter
view.
Munyon's Paw Paw Pills are unlike
oil other laXatives or cathartlcs They
coax the liver into activity by gentle
methods. They do not scour. they dc
not grippe, they do not weaken. but they
do start all the secretions OF the liver
and stomach in a way that soon put,
these organs in n healthy condition and
corrects constipation. In my opinion
constipation is responsible for most all
ments. There are 20 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 clear
complexion or enjoy good health II
l had my way 1 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
purgatlves.
Munyon's Paw Paw Pills are n 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.
These pills contain no calomel, no
dope; they ore soothing healing and
stimulating. They school the bowels
to act without physic.

Anne was crying and saying she

down suddenly. Mr.. HARRISON was
looking at me. and he brought me a
glass of wine.
1T won't be so bad as you fear
he said comfortingly. There will be
no danger once we are vaccinated, and
many hands make light work. They
are pretty raw now, because the thing
is new to them, but by morning they
will be reconciled."

instead OF allowing her to carry

to the basement the moment the
house was quarantined, and got her
out the areaway or coal holel And
now time was flying, and Aunt Selma

situation to explode with bang.

"Oh. look here, you people," he OBJ
jected, I'm not going to let you do
that. Well get some servants in to-
morrow. I'll go down and put out the
lights. There will be enough clean
dishes for breakfast"
1t was lucky for me that this started
a new discussion then and there about
who would get the breakfast. In the
midst Of the excitement l slipped
away to carry the news to Bella. She
was where had left her, and she had
made herself cup of tea, and was
very much at home, which was
