If you suffer from rheumatism or any of the
diseases caused by poisoned blood, take Prescription
C-2228. The use of this great blood purifier is
almost the same consulting specialist, for every
bottle represents what the originator and many
other medical authorities such diseases would
prescribe for you.
Prescription C-2223 contains mercury, chloral,
strychnine, morphine, cocaine other habit form
ing dangerous drugs. 1t is concentrated liquid
preparation Of certain drugs having marked influ-
ence on those diseases caused by blood poisons
which produced within the system, well
those which enter from without. Prescription
C-2223 stands above all other remedies as an altera-
tive of great power. It restores normal functions
to those organs tissues which not naturally
performing their full work; changes diseased con-
ditions into conditions of health 1t also acts
especially the excretory organs, aiding nature in
removing impure products from the body.
valuable aid to Prescription C-2223 is mild
cathartic that does not sicken gripe. This pill
stimulates the secretions of the liver tones up and
regulates the bowels. It is known the 1928 Liver
Pill and sells for 25c. As is dose, and
no bad effects result from their use, they can be
used by young and old alike.
Prescription c. 1928 is guaranteed and sold by all
good druggists at $1.50 a bottle, or the complete
treatment of two bottles and box of Pills for
1928. If you cannot be supplied, write the 1928
Laboratory, Memphis Tenn. Send and adj
dress for literature, 1920 Almanac and sample OF
the Liver Pills.

Rheumatic Sufferers!
&c Money VIII Be Refunded IL Two Bottles
of Prescription C-2223 Do Not Give
You Satisfactory Relief.

This guarantee is made in good faith. 1t is the
expression of confidence of the manufacturers in
the merits of Prescription C-222S to benefit those
who suffer with rheumatism, gout, lumbago and
eruptve skin diseases caused by toxic poisons in the
blood.
This is the guarantee which accompanies every
package. Take two $3.50 bottles of Prescription
C2223 according to the directions given, following
suggestions to diet and daily habits. If, after
this treatment has been used, no benefit is
perenced, sufficient to justify the continuance of
the medicine, take the two empty bottles back to
the druggist from whom purchased and the $500
originally paid him will be cheerfully refunded.
Your druggist reports your and is promptly
imbursed
OF course there are cases of long standing that
require the use of several bottles to accomplish the
results desired, but if benefits derived after
taking two regular size bottles Prescription C-2223
considered fair test-then there may be some
doubts to whether further of the prescription
is advisable.
Time ard experience have demonstrated that the
reasoning of the specialist who first formulated this
prescription, was based unusual knowledge of
those diseases caused by acid toxic poisons in the
blood He made study of such diseases; by con
tinued experiments, he knew what drugs produced
the quickest and best results In the treatment of
hundreds of his patients, he had ample opportunity
70 test again and again, the curative properties of
ms own prescription, which is known as Pre-
Gcription C-2223.

Snlius Sobnfcn
The Colorado statesman., 1920-06-12

for existence may be summed up in
one word-service; service TO our
country and our comrades. Disabled
men and the dependents Of those who
died always come first.
~ regard the agreement we have ef-
fected with the f. b. V. A. one Of the
most important steps we have taken in
that direction.
THE vocational situation has been
generally unsatisfactory the country
over, though the evils of faulty admin
lstrative methods and lack of foresight
have been more pronounced in some
sections than in others-particuiariy
so in the densely populated districts OF
the East. Disabled men have not had
what they are clearly entitled to have
from the government, and the result Is
they have become discouraged ana
tbeir confidence in the board has been
seriously impaired.
..Tbe American Legion cannot re
store that confidence. The board musi
do IT. The legion only can help, ana
that it means to do. The work wouln
be felicitated ms erally If disabled
men throughout the country would
without further formaliiy, get in tourh
with the nearest local post of the
American Legion. That will start the
wheels moving"
The Colorado statesman., 1920-06-12
Aunaer is Greatest Terror.

London.-Fifty per cent of the peo-
pIe of soviet Russia are hungry. al

allowance of food, declared Benjamin
Turner, in describing conditions in that
country as he had observed them. MI.
Turner, with another delegate, Thomas
Shaw. member of the House of Com
mons, returned to England recently.
"There is no terror in Russia except
hunger, and that is very real terror
In the Cities" said Mr.. Turner.
