Man is neither by birth nor disposi tion a savage. Get New Kidneys! The kidneys are the most overworked organs of the human body, and when they fad in their lvork of filtering out and throwing off the poisons developed in the system, things begin to happen. One of the first warnings is pain or stiff ness in the lower part of the back; highly colored urine; loss of appetite; indiges tion; irritation, or even stone in the blad der. These symptoms indicate a condition that may lead to that dreaded and fatal malady, Bright’s disease, for which there is said to be no cure. Do not delay a minute. At the first in dication of trouble in the kidney, liver, bladder or urinary organs start taking Gold Medal Haarlem Oil Capsules, and save yourself before it is too late. Instant treatment is necessary in kidney and blad der troubles. A delay is often fatal. You can almost certainly find immediate relief in Gold Medal Haarlem Oil Capsules. For more than 200 years this famous prep aration has been an unfailing remedy for all kidney, bladder and urinary troubles. It is the pure, original Haarlem Oil your great-grandmother used. About two cap sules each day will keep you toned up and feeling fine. Get it at any drug store, and if it does not give you almost immediate relief, your money will be refunded. Be sure you get the GOLD MEDAL brand. None other genuine. In boxes, three sizes.—Adv. • Testing Inventions. Inventions of a war nature must have prompt government attention.

HCBUIE m &EMEDI CO., CHICAGO A Great Responsibility. ’"THE responsibility attached to the preparing of a remedy for infants and children is undoubtedly greater than that imposed upon the manufacturer of remedies for adults whose system is sufficiently strong to counteract, for a time at least, any injurious drug, it is well to observe that Castoria is prepared today, as it has been for the past 40 years, under the personal supervision of Mr. Chas. H. Fletcher. What have makers of imitations and substitutes at stake ? What are their responsibilities ?j[ To whom are they answerable? & They spring up today, scatter their nefarious wares broadcast, and disappear tomorrow.; Could each mother see the painstalring care with whichTthe ’prescription for Fletcher’s Castoria is prepared s could they read the innumerable testimonials from grateful mothers, they would never listen to the subtle pleadings and false arguments of those* who * would " offer an of, or substitute for. the tried and true Fletcher’s Castoria.
