 his life and happiness was eaved by reading the following prescription in his paper. He is quoted as saying Strange how a little incident changed my entire life. Wealth came to me after years of toll, and naturally as most men I abused it's privileges until I became a nervous wreck, with throb- ping brain. aches and pains, loss of appetite, energy and ambition. In fact life seemed not worth living Hope was dead and pleasure had fled. Then I read a prescription for just such ailment as beset me. My druggist
 filled it for me. Improvement followed improvement and I continued it's use until hale and hearty once more. Judf- eious living has kept mez strong, stronger than before. I kept the pre- scription and want it published to help others. Here it is: One oz. each of tinctpre of cadomene compound. com pound fluid baImwoTt, compound es- sence cardio1 and three ounces com pound syrup sarsaparilla, mix together shake well and take a teaspoonfuf after each meal and one at bedtime My what vdm it gives only one such as I can ever realize"
 NOTE-Loca1 druggists ana physf-a clans commend highly the peculiar virtues fof this prescription and any rood druggist can i'll it.
