It will not cure everything. It is not claimed that it will cure but one complaint, that is, dyspepsia. We cannot say that it will cure every case of dyspepsia, but it will eurea large majority of them. Such cases as are adapted to its use will derive immedi? ate benefit. One small bottle will te suffi? cient to test it. The Shaker Digestive Cordial is especially adapted for emaciated or elderly people j whose food does them but little or no good ? because it is not digested. The Cordial con- | tains an artificially-digested food and is ai digester of food happily combined.

Nervous Prostration Cured by Dr. Miles' Nervine. Prolonged derangement of the nervous system not only affects the brain and men? tal powers, but develops disease in some of the vital organs. The most dangerous of these indirect results is when the heart is affected. This was the case of the Kev. N. F. Surface, Fawn River, Mich., who writes under date of Feb. 14,1S05: "Fourteen years ago I had a slight stroke of paralysis. Overwork brought on nervous prostration, i was exceedingly nervous and the exertion of public speaking caused j heart palpitation that threatened my life. | i used two bottles of Dr. Miles' New Heart | Cure for my heart trouble, and two of Dr. j Miles' Restorative Nervine for my nervous- j ness and feel better than I ever expected to | feel again. I can speak for hours without ! tiring or having my heart flutter as it for? merly did, and I have you to thank that I am alive today." On sale by all druggists.
