A ten CENT BOX
OF "CASCARETS
lnsures You For Months Against a
Sick Headache, Biliousness, Con-
stipation or Bad Stomach.

Put aside-just once the Salts,
Cathartic Pills, Castor Oils or purga-
tive waters which merely force a
passageway through the bowels, but
do not thoroughly cleanse, freshen
and purify these drainage or aliment
airy organs, and have no effect what
ever upon the liver and stomach.
Keep your inside organs pure and
fresh with Cascarets, which thor
oughly cleanse the stomach, remove
the undigested, sour and fermenting
food and foul gases, take the excess
bile from the liver and carry out
of the system all the constipated
waste matter and poisons in the in
testines and bowels.
A Cascaret tonight will make you
feel great by morning. They work
while you sleep-never grippe, sicken
and cost only 10 cents a box from
your druggist. Millions of men and
women take Cascaret now and then
and never have Headache, Bilious
ness, coated tongue, Indigestion, Sour
Stomach or Constipated bowels. Cas-
carets belong in every household
Children just love to take them. (Ad

There Is a host of pills, powders, tab

they all lack the first essential to being

reached by irrigating the entire blood sup

dote True, the pains may be eased with
narcotics or the acids may be neutralized
for the time being with other acids. But
these merely temporize and do not even
lead to a cure There is but one stand

the best thought of the day. 1t is pre-

shipments are made to every store hand
ling it, so that while other coffees may
stay on the grocers' shelves for some con-
siderable period before being sold, you
can always rely on French Market Coffee
being fresh stock and but short time
on the grocers' shelves, because it sells so
much quicker than any other coffee that
has ever been sold in the South.
Think what it means to you to be able
to go to any grocery store in the South,
order a can of French Market Coffee and
be sure of obtaining this identical, famous
old blend, absolutely fresh from the won
derful French Market Mills, which were
built expressly to roast and perpetuate
the genuine French Market Coffee.
Approaching the honor the Southern
people have paid them-in making French
Market Coffee the National Drink of the

Mills will continue to rigidly maintain
the standard of this famous old blend
which in future, as in the past, they guar
antee shall in every way be worthy of
its reputation as the National Drink of
