THAT OLD SWIMMING HOLE
How to Develop the Highest
Degree of Vital, Nervous
and Muscular Vigor

Snakes throw off their outer skin
once year. Human beings change
their skin perhaps nine times in a
year; that is, they have q new skin
about once in six weeks.
The value of clean skin in MAIN
tanning health is not properly under
stood by the majority of people. Clean
liness is a part of health. You can
not be healthy unless yOu are clean
not only externally, but also inter-
nally.
The blood should also be assisted
occasionally, like the skin, in throw
ing off poisons so that the system may
not get clogged and leave weak spot
for disease germs to enter the system.
When the blood is clogged we suffer
from what is commonly called a cold.
DIR. Pierce's Golden Medical Discov-
cry puriies the blood and entirely
eradicates the poisons that breed and
feed disease. 1T thus cures scrofula,
eczema, bolls, pimples and other erup-
tions that mar and scar the skin. Pure
blood is essential to good health. The
weak, rundown, debilitated condition
which so many people experience is
commonly the effect Of impure blood.
Doctor Pierce's Golden Medical Dis
covery not only cleanses the blood of
impurities, but it increases the activity
of the blood-making glands, and it en-
riches the body with an abundant sup
ply of pure, rich blood.
Take it as directed and it will search
out impure and poisonous matter in
the stomach, liver, bowels and kidneys
and drive it from the system through
the natural channels.
1t will penetrate into the joints and
muscles, and dissolve the poisonous ac-
cumulations. Bad blood is driven out.
It will furnish you with rich, pure
blood full of vital force--the kind that
increases energy and ambition, that
reiuvenates the entire body.

100000 BARRELS OF OIL ON
OUR PROPERTY
Figure Gu Yourself Simple Mathematical Problem

The history Of oil shale reads
like romance. For many years
oil has been profitably distilled
from shale in Scotland and in
France. The oil wells of this
country have attracted the whole
attention of oil producers till now
when the unprecedented demand
for oil and oil products has been
so great that sources hitherto un-
thought of have been probed For
twenty Years it has been common
knowledge among geologists that
we have, in this country, oil
sbale of higher productive value
with higher oil and by-product
content, and procurable at much
less expense, than shale found In
either Scotland or France.
