If you arc suffering from Malaria in any
form, ask any druggist who has sold Shal
lenbergers Anti ’ote what he knows of the
medicine. Ignorance in regard to its w n
derful power over all malarious disease, is
the only possible reason why it is not in
universal use,b cause it never fails to cure,
never injures the system, and strikes di¬

A Novel Bet.
While I ara not a betting man, said F J
Cheney, of the firm of F J Cheney & Co.,I
considered it my religious duty to make
that fellow a bet, you see he was about
dead, and I guess he would of died before
spring, if I had not of got him on the bet.
You know some men had rather loose their
life than lose a hundred, well he was one
of that kind, and we both came near being
out, but I saved my hundred and it only
cost him ten dollars Kow's that ? He
sent for me one day and said the doctors
had ill given him up to die, with catarrh
I told him that I would bet him S100 that
Hall’s Catania cure would erme him or I
would give hi u $100 if it failed. He took
the latter proposition. This was three
months ago You see how he looks now,
don’t you, as well as any one,and a dandy.

M. A. Briggs:
i Dear Sir:—My step son, 16 years
old, has been sick 9 years, suffering
with sallow complexion, thin blood,
loss of appetite, great weakness and
swelling of his feet, legs and stomach.
His face was bloated,puffed and watery
looking (dropsical) his complexion be¬
ing very pale and yellow. He bad no
regular appetite and was too weak to
work, not having worked six months,
all told, in two years. I had tried 6
or 7 doctors and spent $300 to cure
him,but all failed. I had offered one
doctor $150 to cure him, but he re¬
fused to take the case. I had heard
so much about your Nunbetter Tonic
Pills I got 5 bottles (for $1) and gave
them to him. He is now entirely well
and has worked for 3 months in the
field steadily,and I consider him finally
cured. Your pills are a paying in¬
vestment for sick and puny people.
Yours resp., W H Cooper.
