After a great deal of effort and cor

ed in getting the Dr. Howard Co. to
make a special half-price introductory
offer on the regalar fifty cent size of
their celebrated specific for the cure

Dr. Howard’s specific has been k,?
remarkably successful In curing con^

paid in every case where it does not
give relief.
So great is the demand for this
specific, that the Cherokee Drug Co.
have been able to secure only a
limited supply, and every one who is
troubled with dyspepsia, constipation
or liver trouble should call upon them
at onoe, or send 25 cents, and get
sixty doses of the best medicine ever
made, on this special half-price offer,
with their personal guarantee to re
