tried many remedies, all Of which
seemed to cause pain without giving
much relief. L finally tried DR.. Miles
Laxative Tablets and found them ex-
cellent. Their action Is pleasant and
mild. and their chocolate taste makes
them easy to take. l am more than
glad to recommend them"
"Clean up the bowels and keep
them Clean" is the advice of all
physicians, because they realize the
danger resulting from habitual con-
stipation. Do not delay too long,
but begin proper curative measures.
DR.. Miles Laxative Tablets are
new remedy for this old complaint,
and a great improvement over the
cathartics you have been using in
the past. They taste like candy
and work like a charm. A trial
will convince you.
DR.. Miles Laxative Tablets are
sold by all druggists, at IS cents

found satisfactory after trial. re-
turn the box to your druggist and
he will return your money.

people Of Illinois are not only sick and
tired of the bathroom boys he said,
but they are equally sick and tired
of the system Of politics that makes
distribution of money in bathrooms of

the issue Is a moral one, that 1t is

TRUE FRIEND
He Knew What Food Alone Would
Do.

He Knew What Food Alone Would
Do.
Three years ago my brother was
suddenly attacked with acute stom-
ach trouble that ultimately reduced
him to a mere skeleton. He consult
ed three physicians and two special
lists but they gave him no relief
Eating ordinary food, even the
smallest quantity, meant for him
terrible pain which kept up until he
had vomited almost all of the food
up again.
HE tried many prepared foods but
not one OF them seemed to help, and
he said they even aggravated his
trouble, and when a friend urged
him to try Grape-Nuts he bluntly re-
fused This friend being persistent
went out and bought a package of
Grape-Nuts, prepared a small amount
of It and actually urged him until
he ate IT with some cream. The re-
suits were pleasant; for the first
time in q long, long time he had
found food that would stay on his
stomach
mot only that, but the Grape-Nuts
rapidly brought him back to health.
He lived on Grape-Nuts and cream
the following week and nothing else
and the effects were magical and the
following three months he ate al
most nothing else, taking absolute
ly no medicine and in that short time
not only was his health entirely re-
gained, but his weight also and to-
day he is strong and in perfect
health once more" Name given by
Postum company, Battle Creek,
Mich.
When trouble comes from improp-
eI food no medicine can cure until
that improper food and its effects
have been corrected by a change OF
diet to the proper food. Grape-Nuts
being absolutely the most nourish-
ing and the most digestible food in
the world, work wonders in such
times, as a ten days trial proves
