honest, and that through it he (Morris)
was duly nominated for th< Bit;, Ridge
judgeship, and that he should, in right
and justice, be so declared by the state
committee

Physicians Recommend Castoria
r - '' ASTORIA has met with pronounced favor on the part of physicians, pharpia
ceutical societies and medical authorities. It is used by physicians with
results most gratifying. The extended use of Castoria is unquestionably the
result of three facts: first— The indisputable evidence that it is harmless:
Second— That it not only allays stomach pains and quiets the nerves, but assimi
lates the food; Third— lt is an agreeable and perfect substitute for Castor Oil.
It is absolutely safe. It does not contain any Opium, Morphine, or other narcotic
and does not stupefy. It is unlike’ Soothing Syrups, Bateman’s Drops, Godfrey’s
Cordial, etc. This is a good deal for a Medical Journal to say. Our duty, how
ever, is to expose dango, 1 ’ and record the means of advancing health. The day
for poisoning innocent children through greed or ignorance ought to end. To
our knowledge, Castoria is a remedy which produces composure and health, by
regulating the system—not by stupefying it—and our readers are entitled to
the information.— Hall’s Journal of Jleallh.

TAKING CALOMEL
LIKE BORROWING
FROM MONEY SHARK
Every Dose Means a Bigger One
Next Month—Calomel Shocks
System Into Temporary Action
Only, Weakens and Robs Or
gans of Natural Action.
Calomel is a powerful mercurial
drug. It crashes into the sour bile on
the stomach and works it up, and the
shock and working up of the bile forces
liver and bowels to action. But with
this forcible movement, and the vom
iting. and the awful nausea, the whole
system is weakened, bowels paralyzed,
and a relaxing dose of castor oil or
strong salts must be taken.
Now, as only the sour bile has been
removed from the stomach, and noth
ing donb to correct what caused this
bile and constipation, in a few weeks
is needed another and a stronger
shaking up.
JACOBS' LIVER SALT acts upon
the liver as surely as calomel, but by
stimulation, not force. It removes the
cause of the trouble. It dissolves the
poisonous uric acid that has accumu
lated in the system and carries it off in
the urine, and it quickly flushes the
alimentary tract and cleanses it of all
waste and fermentation. It combines
easily with the gastric juices of the
stomach and supplies the deficient sul
phates that nature uses to digest food
and to prevent uric acid deposits.
JACOBS’ LIVER SALT is a natural
and quick remedy for constipation, bil
iousness. indigestion," sour stomach,
rheumatism, gout, neuralgia and all
other hepatic ailments. It is effer
vescent and agreeable, quick to act,
very mild and sure. No other liver
medicine has the same natural, stim
ulant effect. Don’t take a substitute.
Large trial jar. 10c; regular size jar, 25c.
(16c extra by mail). For sale by all
Jacobs' Pharmacy Stores and druggists
generally.
