the more dreadful because it is near

to render aid, because the cause may
have been developing for years unsus-

the attack that the most prominent
physician called at the last moment
cannot locate the definite source. There
may be an acute gastric catarrh or
congestion of the kidneys, or it may
he a functional disturbance or me-
chanical obstruction. A weak heart
action tends to disturb the normal ad-
iustment between the two sides of the
circulation, or there may be structural
changes of the heart, lungs or liver,
so the physician is rarely called upon
TO treat a more complicated disease
than Acute Indigestion. He can only
treat the symptoms as they appear.
While the seat of the disturbance lies
Smoldering in a diseased organ eat
ing the life away, producing symptoms
that might come from a number of
different sources, the real cause may
have been dormant for years, when a

number of immediate causes precipi-

is called it is too late to locate the
real cause and the patient is gone.
Every one should guard against
those attacks, which, like every other
disease, may be avoided if one will

A Poor Suffering Woman Who Was
Nearing These Fatal Troubles.

M. c. H. Alexander, whose address
is Union, S. c., called at the store and
said to the demonstrations of Waco
Tonic:
"Gentlemen, you have the best med
icine that has ever been in this coun-
try for Stomach trouble. / know for
l know my wife's suffering and how
pale she was, and she had no appetite
hardly and when she would eat she
would have your Sour Stomach, Heart
Burn and would spit up her food. She
had been this way until she was get
ting weak and falling away alarming
ly. Oh, we had tried so many things
and got no relief until we were out of
heart and doubtful about anything
that came along, but | finally decided
to try your Tonic as saw so many
were praising it.
"And am glad | did, for she has
now used only one bottle of Waco
Tonic and looks like a new woman.
She can eat anything she wishes and
she does not spit up her food any
more, and her color is returning fine
and she is gaining in weight.
"lt almost seems that your Waco
Tonic has given my dear wife back to
me, for tell you in her condition she
could not have been with me long.
Most of all our sufferings could be
shortened if we would lay down our
skepticism, and use a good Herb Tonic
in time, we procraStinate and suffer
the consequence. Nature is good I,
US. She speaks with light pains first,
sometimes a sluggish feeling in the
morning is signal that we need
something to help nature proffer her
functions. We neglect and spurn
these small workings of nature, and
alas, Acute Disease fall upon us!
1t is now the time of the year when
our systems are undergoing great
changes. 1t is the time for us to
come to her assistance with remedy
from natures own garden. Now Waco
Tonic is the proper thing. Those
who will lay off the skepticism and
use a course of it is pretty well in
sured against the hot SUMMER com
