DAILY HEALTH TALKS
What Doctor Pierce Has
Done For Humanity!
By DOCTOR cRIPPs.

10 has always seemed TO me that
Dr.. Pierce, of Buffalo, N. Y, should be
placed near the top when n list Of
Americas great benefactors is written.
He studied and conquered human dis
eases 20 a degree that few realize.
Whenever he found remedy that over
came disease, he at once announced it
I'm the newspapers and told where it
could be bought at small price. He
did not follow the usual custom of
keeping the ingredients secret, so that
the rich only could afford to buy the
medicine, but openly printed the name
of each root and herb he used. And
DO to-day the names of DR.. Pierce and
bis medicines are widely known, and
they stand for better health and better
citizenship.
One of this great physicians most
successful remedies is known as Doctor
Pierce's Pleasant Pellets. These are
little, sugar-coated pills, composed of
Mayapple, leaves of aloe, root of jalap-
things that Nature grows in the ground.
These Pellets are safe because they
move the bowels gently, leaving no bad
after effects, as SO many pills do.
Very often they make a person who
takes them feel like N new man or
woman, for they cleanse the intestines
of hard, decayed and poisonous matter
that accumulates when one is costive.
If you are constipated, by. all means
90 20 your druggist and get some Of
DIR. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets. They
may prove 90 be the very thing your
system requires to make you well and
happy.

May Find Priceless Tables
With the Ancient Furniture

There is tremendous demand to-
day for old mahogany or oak tables.
If there are any historic associations
attached to these tables they bring
fabulous prices. There are plenty OF
tables In the country possessing real
historic interest, but none Of them Is
In the least likely at the moment to
