It’s a pity when sick ones drug
ths stomach or stimulate the Heart
and Kidneys. That is all wrong! A
weak Stomach, means'weak stom
ach nerves, always. And this is also
true of the Heart and Kidneys. The
weak nerves are instead crying out
for help. This explains why Dr.
Shoop’s Restorative is promptly
helping Stomdch Heart, and Kid

reaches out for the actual cause of
these ailments-the failing “inside

Can any one tell what is the
matter with Hannah also the

eminent personage who said
“help your own county men first
and then give thy aid to others.”
If our county people |run oft' to
other places to do tneir trading,
how can our own city prosper.
A good motto, "stick to your
own neighbor in all things” if
conditions are anything like
equal, and stretch the blanket to
them equal; brush aside small
techinicalities and petty differ
ences. You will want your
neighbors help sometime belore
long.
