Life 100,000 Years Ago.
Scientists have found in a cave in
Switzerland bones of m‘\n, who lived
iuo.000 years ago, wh a life was in
constant danger from wild beasts.
Today the danger, as shown by A. W
Brown of Alexander, Me., is largely
from deadly disease. “If it had not
been for Dr. King’s New Discovery,
which cured me, I could not have liv¬
ed,” he writes, "suffering as I did
from a severe lung trouble and stub¬
born cough.To cure Sore Lungs,colds
obstinate Coughs, and prevent Pneu¬
monia its the best medicine on earth.

What Kodol Will Do
For you, when you need it But the longer you ne
lect Indigestion^the^more you will suffer before Kodoi
And, of course, indigestion If neg¬
lected long enough, brings on seri¬
ous diseases in which Kodol cannot
benefit you. Some mt these there
'is no help tor at all.
There are, in fact, very few ail¬
ments which cannot be traced di¬
rectly to impure blood. And im¬
pure blood is always due to a dis¬
ordered stomach.
Use Kodol and prevent Nervous
Dyspepsia.
Kodol will effectually assist Na¬
ture to secure a complete .•estera
tion of good digestion. It does
this by at once digesting all food
in the stomach and keeping it di¬
gested, until the stomach is rested
and can resume its own work. Ko¬
dol removes the cause—and the
effect quickly removes itself.
When it is recalled that Apo¬
plexy, Heart Disease, Cancer—and
even Consumption—are due to
poor digestion and poisons thus
transmitted to the blood, and
throughout tWe system—the impor¬
tance of maintaining good diges¬
tion is at once realized.
