majority of them lived to a ripe
old age; the same treatment that
kept them so we'll and vigorous will

SEVEN BARkS is made from the
extracts OF several different kinds of
leaves, roots and herbs, and has for
nearly 50 years been recognized as
the most reliable remedy for COR

of the stomach, liver kidneys and
bowels. Get the stomach and bowels
working right and most other all

SEVEN BARKS restores a
healthy, natural bowel action, in
most eases II promotes appetite, and
quickly puts the digestive organs in
shape to assimilate food. 1t also
acts on the liver and kidneys, failure
of these to act properly allows the
whole body to be poisoned, and
brings about other complications.
The principal cause of backaches is
the kidneys when they don't perform
their duty, and il not flushed and the
poisons thrown off, serious trouble

VENUS NEVER WITHOUT VEIL
lnpenetrabIe Cloud Mask Envelops the
Planet and Above No Glimpse Of
Anything Beneath. -

Whit makes the planet Venus so
sllver-bright? Many one has put
this question to himself, and must
have been unable to find satisfactory
answer, London Answers states.
But the answer Is that we see the
silver Hnlng Of the cloud-mask which
covers the features of Venus, for, as
dazzling as this planet appears to us,
II Is enveloped In somber clouds that
never seem to break and afford us a
glimpse of what is below. At least there
Is no real proof that the markings
which have been seen are on the plan
cts surface at all. Slow-movlng
cloud masses would be liable to be
very deceptive and might well be mis-.
taken for something more solid.
The perslstency Of Venus vast
envelope Is remarkable; 1t is
present year In and year out, reflect
ing the sunlight with mIrrorllke bril-
liuncy. ''e
How Venus would appear without 1t
IL hard to say, as we have no knowl-
edge whatever of the real composition
OF her globe
All that can be said With any GER
tiiinty is that she would lose large
share OF her radiant beauty II this
Iight-reflecting shell OF clouds were re-
moved. "+i rhr.S
She might look like Mars or like
Mercury, and would certainly fail to
bewitcli mankind as she does now.
The true secret of her peerless
beauty, therefore, Is her veil OF clouds.

NOT TO KNOW
is NO EXCUSE
To Know How to Keep Well Is Better
Than to Call in a Doctor % Get Well.
Sickness Is a Penalty Not an Accident.

One of the best and most depend
able and important preventatives Of
getting sick, one Of the surest ways
of keeping well is to form and main
tain the exceedingly good habit Of
regular, thorough, daily bowel evacu-
alton.
That is Natures "best bet. You
should do your best to help Nature,
not hinder her in her efforts to keep
you well. With the best of good in
tentions YOU may employ many me-
thods. Strong, drastic acting medic
ines that force the bowels to act sim
ply replace one evil by another evil.
1t may secure temporary action but it
produces more than temporary ir-
rltatlon and other bad effects. Don't
judge by promise in selecting a sim
pie remedy TO assist Nature. Per-
Torrance is the true test. Take
Beechams for example.
Over 20 years ago people began
to take Beecham's. Today millions
OF people all over the world take
Beecham's, recommend Beecham's TO
their friends, hand the use of Beech
ans down from father to son or
from mother to daughter for gener-
alton after generation That means
much. You never hear any unfavor-
able criticism or complaint regarding
Beecham's. That means much II
not more. 1t takes real merit to
withstand the tests of time and trial.
You can do much to help Nature
keep you well by keeping box Of
Beecham's in the house, ready for
use at the first warning Of disorder
or arrangement. All druggists
sell Beecham's-are glad TO sell
Beecham's.
