Dexter, Col., Feb. 9.—The eloquence
and logic of the western democracy gushed

evening was a reply to the “Democracy iu
ISfti” by Horace Boies, governor ofjlowa.
When Gov. Boies arose to speak he wes
greeted with deafening cheers, aud it was
some time before be could proceed. Dur
ing Gov. Boies’ speech he was frequently
cheered and at its conclusion the applause
was immense.
LETTERS FROM VEST AND CLEVELAND.
A letter was read from Senator Vest, and
al9o the following:
Lakewood, N. J., Feb. 5,1892.
jpm. A. B. McKinley, President, Etc.
Mv Lear Kir— My absence from home has
necessarily postponed until this time a re
sponse to the courteous inviiation 1 have re
ceived on behalf of the Greystone Club to
attend its annual banquet in commemoration of
the birth of Samuel J. Tilden on tbo Oth inst.
1 am not sure that tins acknowledgment and
•expression of my regret that I am unable to
accept your iuvltatiou will reach you before the
evening tlxed for the banquet; but I cannot re
frain from an attempt to indicate to those who
may tie present my satisfaction m being re
membered in the selection of your guests. This
is a most excellent and appropriate time to
recall the virtues aud attributes of Samuel J.
Tiiden. the late great leader of the democracy
of the laud. In these cays our party may re
member with extreme profit his pure patriot
ism, his ambition permeated with a desira for
the welfare of his fellow-uountrymcn,
his splendid organizing ability, stimu
lated by his love of country and
untainted with Ignoble motives; hta unyield
ing r sisranoe to all that was un democratic
and unsafe, and Iris stubborn insistence upon
everything which had the clear sanction of party
principles. The characteristics, combined
with his love for the people and his unfaltering
trust in their intelligence and lair mindedness,
made him a great democrat, and. we cannot go
amiss if we accept him as onr 'political examnle.
I hope tho banquet contemplated by votir
club will be an occasion full of invizoration
to those who in the ee'qorotlou of Fob. !) de
monstrate thoir devqrfon to the political honesty
and sincerity whlcj characterized Samuel J. Tii
den,and that tho.se who are fortunate enough to
particifuite will see plainer than ever their duty
and mission in resistance within their party to
ali that is not safely and surely in accord with
democratic doctrine aud in bold advocacy at all
times and in all places of the saving qualities of
the true democratic faith. Yours very truly,
Grover Cleveland.
VEST’S LETTER.
Senator Vest’s letter is long and covers
Several subjec a He says that the develop
ments of the sjieakerobip contest has con
vinced him that ex-President Cleveland
will be defeated for the nomination. He
disagrees with Senator Hill’s declaration iu
favor of the tariff of 1883.
Following are extracts from the letter:
Our party is now practically united on the
tariff, but hopelessly divided on the silver
question. * * * * *
“The only difference between ex-Prssident
Cleveland and Senator Hill as to silver is that
the former leaves no doubt of his position,
while the latter’s friends even are unable to un-,
■iiorstand him.” Seuator Vest adds that not
withstanding the clamor which will be
raised that this is a base sur.
Tender to the eastern money power,
and cowardly betrayal of tho western interests'
he (Vest) declares deliberately that free coinage
made an issue by the actions of the democrats
in ci mgress, or by thedemocratic national con
vention means division, and division means
defeat.
In conclusion Senator Vest’s letter says:
The nomination of ex President Cleveland
seems to me a just and logical result of the
present political conditions, but the life of the
Democratic party depends on the fortunes of no
one man. The managers and tacticians, of
whom I am not one, have determined that he
shah not be nominated, and I know enough of
them and of conventions to be certain that they
will achieve their purpose. Recent events place
beyond question the fact that Senator Hill will
secure the entire New York delegation to the
democratic national convention. Nos' York is
m cessary to success in the presidential election,
and nothing c mid be more disastrous than the
nomination of Senator Hill over ex-Presideut
Cleveland, followed by a bitter factional
fight in the Empire state and widespread
discontent among democrats throughout the
country, if the nominee is to come from Now
> ork then Roswell P. Flower is beyond ques
tion our strongest candidate He has ben
elected governor by 50,000 plurality, lias the
confidence of both factions and is a safe, relia
ble aud popular democrat. If the controlling
element of the New York democracy
persists in forcing Senator Hill upon
the psrty and will accept no other con
clusion, it seems to mo our oandidatc should
come from the west. In that event mv personal
preference would be for that tried aud taithful
democrat, William R. Morrison of Illinois, but
Senator Palmer. Senator Carlisle, Gov. Gray or
Gov. Boies can command the full dom
ocratic vote. The nomination of Gov.
Mower would make “assurance doubly
sure," but every raal democrat will help
to elect the ticket nominated at Chicago iu
June next, no matter what name is at its head.
A paramount necessity for tho country’s wel
fare is the termination of republican supremacy
with its system of plunder based upon partner
ship of the government with tho favored
classes, and the profligate expenditure of the
publio money. Very truly, etc. G. G. Vest,

STRAUSS AND HIS SOUL.
He Believes In Transmigration Up to
a Certa’n Point Only.
From the Sew York Sunday Advertiser.
Dr. Bedloe, the United States consul to
j Aruoy, is over here on a visit at present,
! and uptown he is adding to bis well-de
served laurels as a story teller. It is not
\ exactly the thing to steal the after-dinner
thunder and lightning of a brother bon
vivaut, aud it sonn.it something lixa a crime
| to publish one of his best stories. This was
j the thought I ventured to express to Hr.
! Dedloe after a little tale over which I
laughed the other evening. “Go ahead, I
don’t miud,” he said. Iu fact, he has such
a stock of good stories that he will never
miss one. “This is how it goes" he cn
tiuued:
•‘I was crossing Europe on my way here,
and had in my compartmeut a gentleman
who, after we had traveled some miles to
gether, handed me his card. This read
“ Michael Strauss, Laces.” I found Mr!
Strauss an interesting traveling companion,
and he talked on a variety of subjects with
a great deal of inteligence. But he grew a
little tiresome at last, und when he started
the subject of religion I was determined to
shut him off. No diplomat, as you know,
will permit himself to be drawn into a dis
cussion on that subject.
“No. to a large extent, I permitted him to
do all tbs talking himself, incidentally
throwing out Battering hints as to the anti
quity of the Hebrew faith and be religious
fads of the Chinese and Japanese, on which
latter subject X am fairly well posted, but
did not wish to let myself out betore him.
“‘Veil, yes; but dere vas dot new re
leeshon, dot tramps inigrashun of sould,’ be
remarked. s'Herr Bedloe, please you tell me
vot dot vasT
“So I started in to tell him. ’You mean,’
I said, ’the transmigration of souls. Ido
not know that it is anew idea; in fact, it is
oue of the beliefs of ancient Greece. I can
best explain it in this way, Mr. Strauss.
When your body dies, you know, the soui
goes marching on and enters into some
other being. For instanoe. at the exact
time when ycur widow is disposing to the
best advantage the flowers on yonr corpse,
your soul has found a home in a beautiful
yellow canary in a gilded cage, and the
dainty finger-tips of a lovely girl with
blonde hurls are dropping seeds for you into
a golden cup.’
“ 'Dot’s goo-ood, goo-ood,’ murmured Mr.
Strauss.
“ ‘But one day, my friend, tho door of
the gilded cage is left Insecurely fastened,
and the Maltese cat, who for days has been
watching her opportunity, presses the but
ton aud does the rest. Her mistress comes
in opportunely for your soul, Mr. Htrauss,
and instead of being devoured, the yellow
canary receives decent burial in the back
garden. Tnen your soul passes into a beau
tiful crimson flower, which blossoms i y a
dusty wayside, filling the tired air with per
fume and adorning the landscape.
“ ‘ Un’ dot pootiful flower —dot was me?
Yah?’
"Yes, Mr. Strauss; but just at tho
moment when you are nodding to tbo
brees in self-complacent pride a weary,
hungary donkey cotnes along aud bites off
the lovely crimson flower, and you pass
into the anatomy of that muoh-abused
beast.’
“Maig o’est embettant; ca.’
“Yes. Mr. Strauss, |t was a trifle disa
greeable, but presently one of your friends
happens along the dusty road and p its the
tired donkey. Stroking the long, silky
ears, he gently sighs; "Poor, poor wtrauss,
my dear old frieud. How little you have
ucbangadl' ”
‘Hein? Got in himmell’!”
MEN WHO HAVE NO FEAR.
A Story Teller Thir.ks That Pome Feo
ple Cannot Realize Danger.
From the New York Tribune.
“Courage,” he said, “has often struck me
as rather being the loss of something than
the possession of something. Of course I
know that a brave man will walk deliber
ately into death, knowing full well what he
is doing, but having made up his mind to
do it at any cost. It is no sign of ooward
ice when a man sees that it is useless to die
when he might live with just as much
credit and honor to himself, und so refuses
to walk into the jaws of death.
“But there is the man who does not know
what fear is. I have seen in my life a few
such men—men who would go into any dan
ger for the simple reason that they did not
seem to have the power to perceive that
wbat they did was likely to cost their lives.
“I remember once iu the late 60’s 1 was
in a Wyoming towu which was bad. There
were men in that town whose actions were
never questioned and there were many law
less deeds at which even the good citizens
shrugged thoir shoulders—aud that was all.
“A man came into towu who had the
mildest of manner of any one whom I ever
saw. He was very tali, had broad shoulders
and huge fists, but his eye was of a soft
blue and his smile was always friendly.
“One day two drunken outlaws had been
riding around town, running things to suit
themsal ves. One of their tricks had been
to ride into barrooms aud scatter people
there. Th*y were lot alone at this amuse
ment until they both tired of it, fur they
w ere'bad men’and no one cared to have
them begin a savage attack on him.
“When the two riders, inflamed with
whisky and brutality, found the barro, m
charges too flat for their tastes, they looked
around for other mischief to do. They
found it iu a little store, which was a notion
shop, drug store and everything else. They
charged it on the trot, and with spurs jing
ling, arms waving and hoofs clattering,
in they went. An instant later two scream
ing women rushed from tho place, aud ran
down the street. When the outlaws rode
out to the sidewalk they sat in thoir saddles
and howled like savages.
“Now the mild-mannered, blue-eved
giant, oorning down the street had seen
enough of the affair to understand what
had happened. He stopped and looked at
the two whisky-mad riders for a full
minute. Tbe whole affair was over. The
women had disappeared aud the horsemen
wore sitting there, still laughing. But the
giant, walking close to oue of them, reaohed
up quickly and took him by his coat near
the throat. He pulled the man from his
saddle as if he had been a sack of bran, and
giving him a terrific shake, dashed him to
tbe ground, where he lay all in a crushed
heap.
“The other rider bad seen all this at first
with a look of stupid astonishment, and then
with a Bavaga light on his lace, ho whipped
out his revolver; but before he could use it,
the giant had snatched him from bis 6addlo
aud with one hand around his throat and
one gathering up the fellow’s clothes low on
his chest be literally wrung the strength out
of him."
‘•‘Better get out of this town as soon as
you can,’ be said In a low voice, and ho flung
him into the street on top of his companion.
The two sneaks actually whimpered when
they got up. They had their revolvers, but
tbey climbed into their saddles as if they
were half frightened to death and rode out
of town.
“Now, my point is this. No man who had
an idea of danger would have attacked those
men when the peril of the women was past.
The chances were 10,000 to one that he
would be killed. He was absolutely ignorant
of fear, for he afterward became a deputy
marshal, and while trying to arrest tnreo
desperate men in his fearless way was shot
to pieces.”

THE WATER COkE.
The Abbe S ’bastion Kneipp and Bla
Patients ta a Bavarian Hamlet.
Ft cm the Sere York .San.
London, Jan. 15—The new cure has as
serted itself definitely, if cot wholly, in the
| mind of science, at least in the faith of
those who are always seeking new subjects
! of enthusiasm and fresh remedies for thoir
i ailmenta, whether real or Imaginary, in
1 strange and distant countries. The cure
per se is remarkably uuinviting, but never
tneless, it hat become common. Sufferers
are willing to leave their comforta
ble homes, to renounoe the* habits
of a lifetime and the pleasures of
the Riviera to bury themselves iu the primi
tive village of Woerishofen aud place them
selves under the strict rule of the Abbg
Kneipp. It is but fair to state that the
priest has worked miracles in the treat
ment of lupus, and that be has in many ia
stances caused stiff, impotent limbs to re
gain suppleness and activity. He has re
stored power and purity to enfeebled or
i vitiated blood, but whether his drastic
1 measures are suitab e for all constitutions
lias not been proved, and some patients may
try the experiment at their [teril.
Woerishofen is a small village in Bavaria
with about 800 inhabitant*. The last rail
way station before tho the sinuous carriage
route isTurkeira, and from that point bread
flat meadows, spare*ly dotted with clumps
of firs, constitute a mournful and lonely
landscape. As soon as the village spire ap
pears in the distance the slrargor is filmost
startled to find the solitude invaded by
pedestrians; taking exercise deliberately
without shoes or stockings, although, in
other respe ts comfortably and sometimes
elegantly dressed. The men turn up their
trousers and the women tuck up their skirts.
Near the central part of the hamlet the
health seekers are more numerous, and
what seemed to be at first a dexerted locality
is ia reality a populous hiva.
The oracle, the idol of the whole country
side, is tho Abbe Kneipp. Strongly built,
with a massive head, robust shoulders,
bnshy eye brows, full lip)if n broad fore
head, a square chin, the hands of an athlete,
Sebastian Kneipp bag indomitable energy
aid perseverance that lilted him froni an
obscure origin to his present position. His
pareule were poor weavers, who intonded
that their Bon should follow their occupa
tion ; but his dream had been to become a
priest, and while submitting to his father’s
orders aud standing at tho loom all day
w.rked for the achievement of
his cherished purpose and spent the greater
part of the night in stud}’. The double ex
penditure of energy nearly exh-usted his
strength, and when 1 is parents allowed
him to learn Latin from a kind cure who
took him in, bis health was shuttered.
When ready, at the age of ‘JO years, to
enter a seminary, he was refused admit
tance on the plea of his extreme delicacy.
Undeterred. Sebastian stili harbored his
one hope. He was determined to get well,
and, imbued with notious ho hud
gathered in an old hydro-tberaoic
treaties, found accidentally in the public
library of Munich, be began to treat lum
self with cold water. Ha bathed in tho
river throughout the whole of a severe win -
der, breaking the ice with his hobnailed
shoes in order to take his plunge. Ho re
gained his health, became n strong and
hardy man, embraced holy orders at the
age of 30 nnd while performing his religious
duties he never forsook the study of hydro
pathy during his leisure moments, and in
course of time he made many converts to
his system- Patients from the four quarters
of the globe rush to the presbytery of
Woerishofen to ask his advice.
The abbe is 70 years old. He rises bafore
4, and bo is the prie.-t till Ba. m., and from
that hour until 0 in the evening is tho physi
cian, with the exception of an hour at noon,
vtheu he takes his meal, and occasionally
admits to his frugal board bishops, scien
tists, functionaries, and the distinguished
foreigners passing through his villiage. In
the eveaing be attends to his voluminous
correspondence, takes notes and reads, re
tiring late. He lives with two unices, who
jealously g 'ard his privacy and allow no
oue to disturb him at the hours reserved
for himself, be they for rest, study or
prayer. He was the outwnrd appearance,
the roughness, tho i oihotma aud
the oausticity of the peasant; he never
hurries, nor does he lose a minute; he wastes
no time in conventional courtesies. If ad.
dressed ho answers briefly, but not harshly;
he laughs heartily at any simple, honest
joke; he has a warm, excellent heart, a
boundless charity and inexhaustible sym
pathy for suffering. He loves plants, flowers
aud children. liisdog Bpitz awakens him
every morning by pulling the sheets and
blankets off his bed, aud then, sitting down
upon them, waits patiently until the Abbe
returns from saying mass in the neighbor
ing convent—the . nJv place where lie is not
allowed to follow him. Anywhere else
Bpitz is the abhe’s companion.
On the ground floor of the presbytery are
two small rooms divided by a passage. In
one the patients are received. They crowd
iu long before the appaintod hour, and are
provided with numbered tickets and books
in wbioh their names are w ritten, with de
scriptions of their diseases. In each book
the directions to be followed are Inscribed
after each visit. They are summoned to
the next room in groups oi' twelveorfifteen,
according to the numbers on their tickets,
aud without any other distinction what
ever. In that apartment th walls are
whitewashed, and the furniture consists of a
few straw chairs and a long deal
table, at which three or four assistant
physicians are seated. Behind them
several monks and priest take
notes, endeavoring to master the methods
of their master. In the center the Abbe
leans back in his arm chair, with a cigar
between his ltps, a snuff box in one hand,
and a large tumbler of cold water before
him. When a patient approaches tho table
an assistant physician takas his book, reads
a brief synopsis of the ease, and as rapidly
as possible states any changes, each consul
tation lasting only three minutes. Men,
women aud children are treated
alike. Sometimes delicately nurtured
women hesitate te exposo their
ailments so publicly, but on
learning that there is nothing strange in
that, and, moreover, being compelled to
speak by the overmastering dominance of
the abbe, they soon regain confidence. The
priost does not appear to look at his patients,
but the questions lie puts and tbo directions
ho gives show that he has, surely and ex
haustively searched them through aud
through. He rapidly indicates tho treat
ment to lie pursued, an assistant physi
cian writes it in the bo k, amt "the
consultation is ended. From sixty to eighty
patients are interviewed at each sitting.
The methods of the abbe are to re-estab
lish a perfect circulation of the blood from
one extremity of the body to the other.
Forty years of experience and close obser
vation have convinced him that noxious
elements in the system vitiate its most im
portant principle—tbe blood —and that the
only possible cure is in restoring the blood
to its original purity. He does not admit
that the human body is a piece of clock
work that can be kept in order if a damaged
wheel be repaired. He declares that any
imperfection of ono organ impairs the
entire organization, and tbao it is on
the whole organization that medical
tcienco mst operate. To attain that
end there is, m his opinion, only
one principal factor, the sifliplest, the most
abundant, nnd tbe easieit of application—
water, always water! He advocates the con
stant use of it internally aud externally, and
even forbids his pationts to dry themselves
after tho cold bath and to wipe no more than
their hands and faoe. Ho compels them to
walk barefooted, preferably in humid places,
drink large quantities of watir, and often
orders them to retire to rest wrapped iu wet
sheets.
The number of patients he has cured
within the last five or six years have pro
claimed the excellence of his system, and
public attention has been turned to Woer
shofen. Sufferers from inpus who went to
the abbe disfigured and with features half
eaten away by the horrible plague, and left
the village in a fair way of recovery, have
been examined. Fnysioians began to
acknowledge the facts and to concede the
good done oy the masks of clay used by the
| priest in the worst cates. The clay Is
nqlied with rain water and a tenth part
of vinegar, and applied in thick layers
on the affected parts. That opera.lon
is carried out by a benevolent, prim, old
spinster, in accordance with the minute la
; structions she has received freni the priest,
and it is renewed twice a day. Between
e-ich renewal of the mask the faoe is bathed
| with a lotion made of simple herbs. The
' abbe does not refute to avail himself of the
| healing properties of the country flowers
and plants he knows so well, but hit chief
, confidence is in water. Even in the m tsl
' inveterate cases improvement sets in soon,
and it is hastened by the diet and accessory
measures.
Apparently unconscious cf the celebrity
now attached to bit name, indifferent to
the controversy raised by his discov
ery, barely aware of the ever-increasing
number of bis patients, the old priest re
mains in his presbytery, altering nothing
in his laborious, simple, philanthropical
existence, impervious to ambition, praise,
flattery and even gratitude. He fulfills his
mission like an apostle; be has the strong
and simple faith that moves mountains,
and childlike ignorance of bis powers.

'OLD 81CCUM.”
A Fhort History of Bylvania’s Early
Days.
From the Si/tvania(Oa.) Telephone.
Occasionally we hear a man, in speaking
of Bylvania, refer to It as "Old Siccum."
This is a nickname that our county site re
ceived at its birth over forty year j ago, and
which has clung to it ever since, with the
tenderest affection. Wo do not hear it in
these days ss much as formerly, ror is
it spoken in the game spirit of with
ering ridicule; nevertheless, despite her
vigorous growth, Bylvania will never be
able to completely efface tbisdeftsive brand
from hor fair proportions. Like all nick
names, it w ill cling to her through life, and
when at lasi she falls into tho decay that
sooner or later must come to the cities of
the earth, wo have no doufit agoJ inhabi
tants who will be heard to lament over the
sad fall of * ‘Old Slicum. ’’
It will be interesting to many, perhaps,
to hear the origin of this funnv soubriquet
and the causa that led to its bestowal. For
thereby hangs a tale of two cities.
iu 1847 Jacksonboro was the county, eeo"
of Scrivon. It tvaa there tho superior court
convened; it was there the infer! r court
with its five judges hold undiputed swny
over coutity affairs; it was there the wh.es
and democrats met to vote on election
days—and it wus there, according to
the stories that have come to us, that
eyeballs were gathered up by tho saucerful
the next morning aft r elections. Old
Jacks inboro was a beautiful little village,
wo rjro told, and was quite a lively place iu
many respects. Houvor, it was not cen
trally located, nnd ’tfce people in the lower
part of tba county, near Kllingham, felt
the inconvenience of driving so far to court
and wanted tm court house equi-distant
from both ends of the crunty. Bo they be
gan to agitate a removal.
This of course mot with tho bitterest ki 'd
of opposition from thoso who loved the old
town on the hanks of flho Beaver Dam—aud
there were many who did, It was entirely
natural that they should. Some had lost
an eye, some a tooth, some an e rr, porhop3,
and it was not strange they should resist
any attempt to have elections held at any
other place than in this old town where
they had left so many mementoes.
At this time tho circling stars knew no
such place as Bylvania. Where now stand
her busy streets the wild tot dug his hole
unscared, and tho whangdoodle mourned in
her iousliness. Nevertheless, the people of
Jaeksonboro began to grow alarmed.
For they had heard an ancient rumor fly.
Long cited by the people of the sky,
That limes to come should see another race
Her court house ruin ana its towers deface.
They pondered this, and though it seorned
like Fate, yet they determined—presumptu
ous mortals—to battle again*? the decrees of
the gods. So it was inaue an issue In the
race for the legislature tbnt year, and the
voice of the people doomed Juoksonhoro, the
fair city of tho waters, to forgetfulness and
decay.
A survey was made and the center of the
county located near where the court house
now stands, and our representative in the
legislature had an act pnssed to “establish
and make permanent the new county site”
to “provide for buildiug anew court house
and jail.” nnd "to appoint eomnilnioners to
carry the same into effect, n and to
provide for the payment of the necessary
expenses.”
By the net Moses N. Mclali nnd
others wore then made commissioners to lay
out the new town and sell'its lots nod’ to
sell the old court house and lots at Jackson
boro. And for whatever other inouey
might be noedod the justices of the inferior
court, who managed county affairs, were
required to levy an extraordinary tax, cot
exceeding 50 per cent, on the state tax.
* After soiling some of RylvaninV choice
corner lots, and the temple of justice and
depreciated lots at Jaeksonboro, the com
missioners found that they had In hand
$973 75 and that they heeded $1,162 52 more.
Therefore they requested the inferior court
to levy the additional tax at once.
But those justices wre nil loyal friends to
the old town and as lustily hated tho new.
And they Hatly refused to obay. Judge
John, S. Mailer, tho chief justice, so to
spent:, seoms to have 1 oen as bitter against
the little tow* that was ab >ut to spri.ig up
among the pities as Hannibal was against
Rome, and the others were not lacking ia
loyalty.
This refusal of course called for a man
damus from the superior court requiring
them to show cause why they should not
levy the tax. The ca-e was tried before
Judgo Holt and decided iu favor of the
counnjssiouers, the judge ordering a per
emptory mandamus to is iu. The inferior
court justices then aonevled to the supreme
court of the si ate at Miliedgeville whore the
judgment of the court below was affirmed.
Then they woro compelled to levy the tax,
and tho new court house was built.
Amid such warring of factions Svlvania
was born into tho world. JudgeMauor.it
is said, never got over his dislike for the
new county scat. Coming here once on
business, just after it began to assume the
appearance of a villago, someone asked him
what he thought of it.
Said he: “It looks just like my old hound
dog Sicoum."
And that’s the way the nickname came
about and has clung so tenaciously through
these years.
It is pleasant to be able to add In conclu
sion that Jacksonboro will soon be rebuilt—
not with a court house, with barrooms or
for election brawls, but with a camp-meet
ing shed and tents and for the purpose of
religious worship. Thus doe* time work its
revenges.

It's a strong stomach that can staad the
ordinary pills, with their griping and vio

It’s someone who doesn’t know about

every trouble of the liver, stomach, anil
bowels. They do more good, do it easily
and naturally, and do it so that it lasts—
cleansing and regulating the whole sys

stipation, Indigestion, Bilious Attacks,
Dizziness, are surely prevented, quickly
relieved, and permanently cured.
They’re the cheapest pill, too, for they’re !
