11c Truing lie
In a young girl’s life is reached when
Nature leads her uncertain steps across the
line which divides girlhood from woman-
hood. Ignorance and neglect at this crit-
ical period are largely responsible for
much of the after
misery of woman-
hood. Not only
does Nature often
need help in the
regular establish-
ment of the wom-
anly function, but
there is almost al-
ways need of some
.safe, strengthening
Itonic, to overcome
rthe languor, nerv-
ousness and weak-
ness, commonly ex-
perienced at this
time.
If there is an in-
valid wotpan, suf-
fering from female
weakness, prolap-
sus, or falling of
womb, or from leu-
corrhea who has
used Dr. Pierce’s
Favorite Prescription without complete
success, Dr. Pierce would like to hear from
such person—and it will be to her advant-
age to write as he offers in perfect good
faith, a reward of $500 for any case of the
above maladies which he cannot cure.
"I wish tef tell you the benefit we have
received from'-using your remedies,” writes Mrs.
Hall, of Brodhead, Green Co., Wis. '' Two
Dan xxcull, yi -ui uuutau, viiu^a v_xi., w to. -t. v, xt
years ago my daughter’s health began to fail.
Everything that could be thought of was done
to help her but it was of no use. When she
began to complain she was quite stout; weighed
170, the picture of good health, until about the
age of fourteen, then in six months she was so
’----- ‘ ’ ‘ “ ,""t 120. She kept
there was no
use, she must die. Friends all said, ‘ You will
lose your daughter.’ I said I fear I shall. X
must say, doctor, that only for your ‘ Favorite
Prescription ’ my daughter would have been in
her grave to-day. When she had taken one-
half bottle the natural function was established
and we bought another one, making only two
bottles' in all, and she completely recovered.
Since then she is as well as can be.”

Adviser, in paper Covers, is sent free on

A Startling Test.
To save a life, Dr. T. G. Mer-
ritt, of No. Mehoopany, Pa.,
made a startling test resulting
in a wonderful cure. He writes:
“A patient was attacked with vi-
olent hemorrhages, caused by ul-
ceration of the stomach. I had
often found Electric Bitters ex-
cellent for acute stomach and
liver troubles so I prescribed
them. The patient gained from
the first, and has not had an at-
tack in 13 months.” ,Electric
Bitters are positively guaranteed
for Dyspepsia, Indigestion, Con-
stipation and Kidney troubles.
Try them. Only 50c at A. John-
son’s. __ _____
No Others
It is a class to itself. It has
no rivals. It cures where others
merely relieve. For aches, pains,
stiff joints, cuts, burns, bites,
etc., it is the quickest and surest
-devmecU We mean
hint’s Lightning Oil. 50c and
25c bottles;
A Sure Thing.
It is said that nothing is sure
except death and taxes, but that
is not altogether true. Dr. King’s
New Discovery for Consumption
is a sure cure for all lung and
throat troubles. Thousands can
testify to that. Mrs. C. B. Van
Metre of Shepherdtown, W. Va.,
says: “I had a severe case of
bronchitis and for a year tried
everything I heard of, but got no
relief. One bottle of Dr. King’s
New Discovery then cured me
absolutely.” It’s infallible for
Croup, Whooping Cough, Grip,
Pneumonia and Consumption.
Try it. It’s guaranteed by A.
Johnson, Druggist. Trial bot-
tles free. Regular size 50c, $1.00.

INDIGESTION
“I was troubled with stom-
ach trouble. Thedford’s Black-
Draught did me more good
in one week than all the doc-
tor’s medicine I took in a
year.”—MRS. SARAH E.
8HIRFIELD, Ellettsville, Ind.
Thedford’s Black Draught
quickly invigorates the ac-
tion of the stomach and
cures even chronic cases of
indigestion. If you will
take a small dose of Thed-
ford’s Black Draught occa-
sionally you will keep your
stomach and liver in per-
fect condition.
THEDFORD’S
BLACK-DRAUGHT
More sickness is caused by
constipation than by any
other disease. Thedford’s
Black-Draught not only re-
lieves constipation but cures
diarrhoea and dysentery and
keeps the bowels regular.
All druggists sell
25-cent packages.
“Thedford’s Black-
Draught is the best medi-
cine to regulate the bowels
I have ever used.”— MRS.
A. M. GRANT, Sneads
Perry, N. C.
CONSTIPATION
Herbine
Will overcome indigestion and
dyspepsia, regulate the bowels
and cure liver and kidney com-
plaints. It is the best blood en-
richer and invigorator in the
world. It is purely vegetable,
perfectly harmless, and should
you be a sufferer from disease,
you will use it if you are wise.
R. N. Andrews, Editor and
Mgr. Cocoa and RockledgeNews,
Cocoa, Fla., writes: “I have used
your Herbine in my family, and
find it a most excellent medicine.
Its effects upon myself have been
a marked benefit. I recommend
it unhesitatingly.” 50c. For
sale by Ambrose Johnson.
By entertaining good thoughts
you will keep out evil ones.
Found a Cure for Indigestion.
I use Chamberlain’s Stomach
and Liver Tablets for indiges1
tion and find that they suit my
case better than any dyspepsia
remedy I have ever tried and I
have used many different reme-
dies. I am nearly fifty-one years
of age and have suffered a great
deal from indigestion. • I can eat
almost anything I want to now.

BOILS
PYRAMIDS OF PAIN
Most Plentiful and Troublesome
During Spring and Summer.
;r m
Growing Aches and Pains.
Mrs. Josie Sumner, Bremond,
Texas; writes, April 15, 1902:
“I have used Ballard’s Snow
Liniment in my family for three
years- I would not do without it
in the house. I have used it on
my little girl for growing pains
and aches in her knees. It cured
her right away. I have also used
it for frost bitten feet, with good
success. ‘It is the best liniment
lever used.’” 25c, 50c, $1.00.

It is wonderful with what fa-
cility we accept the opinions of
those who are in accord with our
own views, and it is equally won-
derful how incredulous we be-'
come when we encounter those
whom we know to differ radically
from our position. But this is
not always wise, for we are not
infallible, and it is possible that
we may be wrong. If so, those
who agree with us will never
bring us to a right understand-
ing. Hence we often learn more
from our opponents, if we con-
sider closely what they say, than
from our friends. The man
who combats our arguments is
worthy of hearing, if he is at all
competent to cope with the sub-
ject he assays to handle.—Christ-
ian Advocate.
It takes warm weather to bring out the hidden ijnpurities,
humors and poisons in the system and stir np thev sluggish
blood, and this is why boils are so common in Spsjng and
Summer. They sometimes come singly, but of
pairs and triplets, and even in hunches and clusters,
generally upon the tenderest part of the body. They are
the most painful of all skin eruptions, and the blood is in
a turmoil, and the system in a feverish commotion from
the time these volcanoes of misery begin to form until they
burst and the matter is all discharged. But lucky is the unfortunate sufferer who gets off with
only one boil, for even if another does not follow immediately, the poison that is left in the
blood is bound to collect somewhere else and break through the#skin, and these pyramids of
pain may he coming and going all through the Spring and Summer.
Some people have an idea that boils are good for the health, that they are evidences that
the blood is too rich, but nobody’s blood ever gets too rich; neither are boils conducive t6
health. Impoverished or polluted blood, or a riotous, feverish condition of this vital fluid
causes boils, carbuncles, and other dangerous skin eruptions.
Long-continued sickness leaves the blood too weak
and sluggish to throw off the bodily impurities and re-
lieve the system of the waste and refuse, which then
concentrates at some spot and a carbuncle or boil is
the result. To one already enfeebled by disease boils
seem to come with more frequency, causing the intens-
est pain and greatest danger to the already weak and
debilitated sufferer.
All skin eruptions, from the sometimes fatal car-
buncle to the spiteful little cat-boil, are caused by bad
blood, and the only way to avoid or get permanently
rid of them is to purify and build np the deteriorated, polluted blood, and counteract the
humors and poisons, and nothing will do this so quickly and thoroughly as S. S. S., which
is the acknowledged king of blood purifiers and greatest of all tonics.
Where the blood has become impoverished and is poor and thin no medicine acts so prompt-
ly in building it up and restoring its richness, purity and strength. The time to cure aboil is
before it develops, when it is in a state of incubation or formation in the blood, for boils are,
after all, only the impurities and poisons bubbling np through the skin, and this will continue
in spite of poulticing and lancing till the blood gets rid of its accumulated poison. The way
to stop boils is to attack them in the blood, and this is what S. S. S. does. All danger of boils
is past when the blood has been thoroughly purified and
the system cleansed of all morbid, impure matter. If you
are subject to boils, then the same causes that produced
then! last season will do so this, and the sooner you begin
to put your blood and system in good order the better the
chance of going through the spring and summer season
without boils or other painful and irritating skin eruptions.
S. S. S. is guaranteed purely vegetable, and can be taken with perfect safety by old and
young, and without harm to the most delicate constitution. It is mild and pleasant in its
action,and unequalled as a cure for boils and kindred eruptions.
Write us if you would like advice from our physicians or desire any special information;
this will cost yon nothing. JHE SWIFT SPECIFIC COMPANY, ATLANTA, GA.
BOILS FOR OVER 15 YEARS.
Gentlemen For over fifteen years I have suffer-
ed more or less from Impure Blood. About a year
ago I had a boil appear on my leg below the knee,
which was followed by three more on my nook.
I s aw S. S. S. advertised and decided to try it. After
taking three bottles all Boils disappeared, and I
have not been troubled any since. I feel deeply
indebted to S. S. S. for the excellent health I am
enjoying, as I have not felt so well in twenty
years. You have certainly placed me under many
obligations, and I must say that I will always,
have great faith In S. S. S.
