; $5,000
Reward will be paid to any
person who can find one atom
of opium, chloral, morphine,
cocaine, ether or chloroform
in any form in any of Dr.
6 Miles' Remedies.
This reward is offered because
certain unscrupulous persons
make false statements al>out
these remedies. It is undcr,n
stood that this reward applies
n only to goods purchased in the
(j open market, which have not
been tampered with in any way.
Dr. Miles' remedies cure by
0 their soothing, nourishing,
strengthening and invigorat1
ing effects upon the nervous
>y system, and not by paralyzing
and weakening the nerves as
would be the case if these drugs
were used.
:n For this reason Dr. Miles'
Anti-Pain Pills are universally
' considered the best pain remedy
ill "I have mirrored for 25 years with
severe pains In my head, heart and
to back, and havo tried everything I
could got and could not find any relief
until I got u box of Dr. Miles Antlrain
Pills. I suffered as long as 12
hours at a time with such severe
j<5 pains that I feared I would lose my
mind. The Antl-Paln Pills gave mo
ic relief In from 10 to 20 minutes. I do
not havo to use Morphine any more.
I wish you wouhl publish this so that
other sufferers may find relief."
