GOTTEN RID OF
Simple Home Treatm e n t
Without Salves or
Lotions.

The cause of nine-tenths of the
pimples people have is faulty dige.-
tlon' stomach trouble, inactive liver
ana constipation. When this is un-
derstood the matter of getting rid of
plmples becomes a very simple one.
once the right remedy is found The
great success of Mr. Tablets as a
treatment for pimples lies in the fact
that this remedy not only rouses the
liver to activity and relieves consti-
patton but it also contains certain
vegetable elements which tone UP and
correct the stomach, promote the flow
OF gastric Juice and relieve fermen-
tation in stomach and intestines.
1t Is recommended that anyone with
pimples take Natures Remedy (NR
Tablets) every night before retiring
do this for a few nights running and
they will find that their compilations
will clear. the pimples will disappear
and they will feel better in every way.
For everyone that is constipated or
"liverish" or anyone suffering with
rheumatism-young or old-our advice
is, take an Mr. Tablet tonight and
you'll feel better in the morning

In Pulmonary Troubles
of Every Nature

one Of the first needs is rest combined
with pure food and abundance Of fresh
air night and day. Sometimes these
agencies are sufficient to effect relief. In
other cases, rundown systems need tonic
help.
Where the latter is indicated, It is wise
to try Eckman's Alterative-a lime bear
ing compound which Is easily assirnilated
by the average person.
For more than twenty years this prepa-
ration has been widely used and many
recoveries are attributed to It. Even IN
advanced cases of pulmonary affections
it has proved beneficial
One feature not commonly found In ef-
fective medicines Is its absolute freedom
from poisonous or habIt-forming drugs
Therefore a trial is safe.

THE CROOKED FURRow.

Perhaps you've heard Of Napoleon
Bonaparte. the wonderful soldier
whose skill In fighting the enemies OF
France won him the love of the French
people and at last made him their EN-.
peror.
One day Napoleon. with one Of bis
officers. was passing along q country
road when he saw a farmer blowing
In a field.
Napoleon watched this man blowing
for a minute, and then he said:
my friend, your furrow Is not
straight You do not pillow right"
The countryman did not know that
the little man In the simple uniform
was the head Of the French nation.
and he answered rather sharply:
III you can pillow It any better LET
me see you do So
Napoleon smiled. He was quite sure
he could Had he not been brought
up In the country And he took hold
Of the pillow and started out bravely.
But the furrow was nothing but a lot
OF zigzags. and the farmer laughed
long and loud as he took the pillow
from the hands OF the stranger.
"Every man to his trade. SIR" said
the farmer. 1T Is plain that yours Is
not blowing"
Napoleon put his hand into his pock-
ct and handed the farmer a handful
Of gold pieces.
The man was amazed and told the
next persons who passed him OF his
good fortune and Of the stranger.
The farmer went on to tell what the
giver OF gold pieces looked like.
why. THAT was Napoleon Bonaparte.
the ruler Of all Francer' the farmer
was told.
Overcome now with shame at his
rude speech. the farmer put on his
best clothes and buried to the palace
where Napoleon was staying.
The place was so grand that the
farmer almost lost his head, but when
he was shown into the room where
Napoleon sat and the great man was
so very kind he plucked up courage to
ask favor, and that was that his son
might become a soldier.
my son cares more for a gun than
q plow," the old man explained. His
burrows are no better than, those Of
your excellency."
Napoleon agreed to take the boy and
promised that he would help him to
get on.
And he sent the old man home happy
with another handful of money and
blessing that crooked furrow that had
made his fortune.

We'll Known Remedy
 Relieves Chronic Case
Important to Dispose Of Waste from the Stomach With
 Regularity

People frequently attribute to failure of the digestive organs conditions that are primarily due to inactive bowels, and apply remedies that from their very nature are more apt to aggravate than to relieve the disorder.
 When the bowels act regularly the stomach is in better shape to perform its allotted tasks and can usually be depended upon. To keep the bowels in condition there is no more effective remedy than the combination of sim- pie laxative herbs known as Dr. Cald- wells Syrup Pepsin which is sold in drug stores for fifty cents a bottle.
 Dr. Caldwell has prescribed this rem edy in his practice for over quarter of a century and it is today the standard household remedy in thousands of homes. MT. Thos. DeLoach, with the Department of the Interior, Office of Indian Affairs, at Washington, wrote Dr. Caldwell recently that ''Dr. Cald- wells Syrup Pepsin is the best laxative I have any knowledge of and the clean ing up guaranteed by it's use relieves every organ"
