There is no more agonizing trouble

unceasing. DeWitt's Whitch Haze]
Salve cures piles at once. For skin diseases,
cuts, burns, bruises, all kinds of
wounds it is unequalled. J. S. Genii.

CLERK'S WISE SUGGESTION.
"I have lately been much troubled
with dyspepsia, belching and sour
stomach," writes M. S. Mead, leading
pharmacist of Attleboro, Mass. "I
I could eat hardly anything without suf!
fering several hours. My clerk sug!
rested I try Kodol Dyspepsia Cure
| which I did with most happy results.
I have'liad no more trouble and when
. one can go to eating mince pie, cheese,
j candy and nuts after such a time, their
; dic tion must be pretfy good, i cni
dorse Kodol Dyspepsia Cure heartily,"
i You don't have to diet. Eit all the
] good food you want but don't overI
load the stomach. Kodol Dyspepsia
Cure digests your food. I). C. Scott.
