Should I die before awakiug take

From her heart u sob Is breaking

For she knows he heard the sum

AS the gentle eyes look downward on

And her voice, in supplication, sends

TO the King who has received him

A WEAK BODY

When you're fifty, your body begins to
creak a little. at the hinges. Motion is
more slow and deliberate. mot SO young
as I used to be- is a frequent and unwel-
come thought. Certain bodily functions
upon which good health and good spirits
so much depend, are impaired. The weak
spot is generally the bladder. Unpleasant
symptoms show themselves. Painful and
annoying complications in other organs
arise. This is particularly true with ell
derby people. If you only know how, this
trouble can be obviated.
For over 200 years GOLD MEDAL
HARLEM Oil has been relieving the in
convenience. and pain due to advancing
years. 1t is standard, old-time home
remedy, and needs no introduction. 1t is
now put up in odorless, tasteless capsules.
These are easier and more pleasant to take
than the oil in bottles. s
Each capsule contains about one dose of
FIVE drops. Take them just like you would
any pill, with a small swallow of water.
They soak into the system and throw off
the poisons which are making you old be-
fore your time. They will quickly relieve
