An attack of Fever at this time of year, with Quinine as the treat ment. means a week or ten days lost from Busi- It means ten days of unltamtiness for you and ten days of hard worjc and anxiety for those who love you. This is putting it in its very happiest asj>ect. It might mean your death, and it often means a breakdown in general health from whit * some recuperate very slowly. If you are a rich man your time is worth much 'our estate. If you I used Johnson'* Tonic 24 hours. Took it every three hours. Never felt better in my life. Did not lose an ■> in weight. Can eat anything. iu Vou* cMiuo. n you a ,,oor man, your time in worth much more to your family. The rich man might better afford to suiter a loss of $100.00 a day, as a result from en- l I pjpsence from business than the ]>oor man ran lose the value of his labor. 10 ii<,th men—rich or poor—are stupid to lose 10 days when 24 to 48 hours is the limit of time required to put them iu good condition by Johnson's Chill and 6 'Talways feel sorry for the family that is wedded to the plan of subjecting themselves'to the Quinine treatment. . The process is slow. The result uncertain. The treatment disappointing.

Harmless under all cu* cuuManiej - ^ at . (s at once . j n 30 minutes after its administration, it enters the blood and begins to undo the mischief caused by Malaria. It lues a wonderful record of 17 years of success. U9i> cases out of every 1001! are promptly cured, and the 1000th case can be easily cured by doubling the 'lose and taking it a little oftener. Johnson's Tonic is a wonderful medicine. It is not mere merchandise. It is suiierli No remedy in the whole domain of Materia Medica is more positiva in it< action and unfailing in its results. .... *. It will cure. It will cure every time. It will cure every case of leva*. Xj will cure any type of fever. It is the one great medicine ttiat seldom disappoints. Don't trifle with Fever. If allowed to run, it is like a house allowed to hurn-it will consume you. Use Johnson's Tonic. Use nothing else. Vow, take your choice, hie in bed for days, or maybe weeks, and poison vcur ligestion with Quinine, anil arise finally with all the life and vim taken out of vou or use Johnson’s Tonic and be restored at once to perfect health. \\, loss of vital force.
