Tablets', Will give three boxes of their Specific worth 52.50 to any one who may have used as much as one box of their tablets without decided benefit. We have never heard of a single case where the tablets have failed to give satisfactory re¬ sults, and if there is a person to he found who has used them without benefit we want to know who he is and where to find him. They never fail to cure kidney and bladder troubles and affections of the genital organs and overcome all debility and weakness in botli men and women. They improve the appetite, aid digestion and assimilation and overcome constipa tion. Thcy have vital effect, on all of the secretory organs and establish a healthy condition of the mucous and gland secre¬ tions in every part of the body: capillaries overcome and all torpid conditions of the secure perfect circulation of the blood, so that every organ is and supplied healthy. and Being every function is normal the only lemcdy ever compounded that fully meets the logical physiological is COll ditions of the human system, it no won¬ der that they give results unknown to medical science. No matter it the, doc¬ tors and all remedies have failed, try the Tablets and be convinced that they I’lieir arc superior to all known remedies, effect on the nerve centres is a complete surprise to physicians who have used them. Oases that have baffled the skill of best ph vsicians and no remedies seemed to benefit, have ’men promptly controlled and permanently cured by the I ablets. Cases where injections cf morphine have been resorted to as the only means of even temporarv relief have been promptly trouble con trolled by the Tablets and the complete!v overcome bv their use.
