Once a Year

A "one a year" check up is
a good plan and should be carried
out by every mother. 1t is this
pian-take your child to see a
doctor at least twice each year.
Let the physician look him or
her over, just on general prin-
clpleS. Even though your child
may look healthy and act healthy
you cannot help but to profit
by such precaution.
Children's futures depend SO
much on food during the neriod
OF growth that every mother can
well afford to let an expert occa'
sionally check the good work she
is doing.
It is also a good plan to take
the child to q dentist every six
months. I believe nowadays they
have the children looked otter IN
the schools for tonSils, ETC., but
it is a good idea to play safe
and do these things that seem
very small to you.

Herb
Extract

Lasting
Relief

MR.. JOHN McANsH
Last April a year ago I bought
my first bottle Of Miller's Herb
Extract formerly called Herb
Juice), and in the past six months
I have really known the meaning
of sound health-not a pain or
ache and no sign of stomach
trouble, that had caused me
months of suffering and worry"
Before continuing with this
statement let us inform you that
the giVer, Mr.. McAIHSh, resides at
1917 10th st. NV, is a carpenter
by trade and well known in Wash
ington. Continuing, he said, BE
fore using this medicine it was a
hard matter for me to work
steady, as I was unable to eat the
food ! wanted and needed to give
me the proper strength. My
head often panied me so I could
hardly see. Bilious attacks made
me feel sick all over; liver and
bowels were out of order. I had
sharp, shooting pains in my side
and suffered greatly with gas and
indigestion. In all, have used
six bottles of this medicine. I
know it has made it possible for
me to continue working steady. I
never have a sign of my former
troubles and have found that the
relief is lasting. This is the
greatest body builder, also regula-
tor and cleanser, I have ever used
pleasant to take and worthy of
all the praise can give it,"
