KEEPS YOU IMMUNE FROM DISEASE. May Sound Extravagant, But Investi- qatien Will Cenvince You.

Negligence and indifference to the drainage organs (fxidneys, liver, bowels, etc.) are the causes of disease. The poisonous, wern-eut tissues are permitted te accumulate thereby pre- venting the organs frena resisting dis ease.
 The best remedy is to keep the sys- tenn under the influence of BIOPLASM 1Bower)-a strictly ethical. nen-stim- ulating, poisonous preparation which drives out all disturbing ele- ments and enables the starving nerve cells to receive normal nutrition.
 While under the influence of BIO- PLASM, (Bower) infection can get no hold, because the persistent guardians (the white cells, of the blood) destroy the body poisons and compel their elimination through the bowels.
 One physician wrote "Bioplasm (Bewer) is better than quarantine-it's s the best kind of health insurance"
 If you suffer from Mal- Nutrition, Indigestion. Anenia, Neurasthenia, Melancholia, Weak Vitality, yeu should try the BioplaSm treatment
 BIOPLASM (Bower) has been sold exclusively on doctors prescription for many years. However, arrangements have been made with the Lee & Os- good Co, of this city and other repu- table druggists to supply the public di- rect. BIOPLASM (Bower) is sold in ta blet form, at $1.00 per bottle, on guarantee of satisfaction or money back
