MALARIAL DISEASES. How to Avoid Them and the &c., rious Consequences of Neg Iect.

"Fix me up something to knock the malaria, doctor" remarked sallow faced, sickly looking man, entering prominent physician's office the other day.
 The doctor stepped to his medicine case, took down a couple of bottles, mixed a preparation which he handed to the patient with the customary advice to shake well and follow directions and resumed his seat.
 "Such cases are frequent" replied the doctor Tn answer to a question. "The warm days and damp, chilly nights are certain malaria breeders and are most serious in those who have neglected to keep their stomach, liver and bowels in good condition. Such persons are full of the impurities on which the malarial germ thrives, and 1t is from this class that typhoid fever, pneumonia, Bright's Disease, small pox and yellow fever claim most of their victims whenever these dis cases are prevalent.
 The proper way to guard against the malarial germ and the serious diseases which follow 1t is to get into good condi, tion by taking a reliable remedy tha, will keep the bowels clear and the liver healthy, and to continue with it at ire quent intervals during the sickly season.
 A dose of Prickly Ash Bitters three or four times a week will do all of this, be- sides stimulating the digestion, improv tug the appetite and keeping the bodily energy at the highest pitch.
 Prickly Ash Bitters is known every where as a system tonic and bowel regu- lator. It not only removes all traces oi tnalarial poison from the system, but tones up the vital organs, gives new strength and vigor, makes the body strong and the brain active.
 "Prickly Ash Bitters is the best all-arounc medicine for the family ever used During tho past ten years have always kept il in my house Whenever any of my family show signs of mala tia. kidney trouble, indigestion or constipation few doses is all that is needed to make then we'll and hearty again.-W.
