| OLD-TIME COLD CURE DRINK HOT TEA! •• «• Got a small packace of Hamburg Breast Tea, or as the German folks i call it, “Hamburger Brunt Thee,” at any pharmacy. Take a tablcspoonful of the tea, put a cup of boiling water upon it, pour through a sieve and drink a teacup full at any time during the day or before retiring. It is the moat effective way to break a cold and cure grip, as it opens the pores of the skin, relieving congestion. Also loosens the bowels, thus breaking up a celd. Try it the next time you suffer from a cold or the grip. It is inexpensive and entirely vegetable, therefore safe and harmless. RUB RHEUMAfISM FROM STIFF, WG JOINTS Rub Soreness from joints end muscles with a small trial bottle of old St- Jacobs Oil Stop “dosing” Rheumatism. It's pain only; not one case in fifty requires internal treatment. Rub soothing, penetrating “St. Jacobs Oil” right on the “tender spot,” and by the time you say Jack Robinson —out edmes the rheumatic pain. “St. Jacob’s Oil” is e. harmless rheumatism cure which never disappoints and doesn’t burn the skin. It ’ takes pain, soreness and stiffness from aching joints, muscles and bones; stops sciatica, lumbago, backache, neuralgia. Limber up! Get a 25 cent ,bottle of old-time, honest “St. Jacobs Oil” from any drug store, and in a moment you’ll be free from pains, aches and stiffness. Don’t suffer! Rub rheuma tism away. MEAT CAUSE OF KffINEY TROUBLE Take a glass of Salts if your Back hurts or Bladder bothers—Meat forms uric acid. If you must have your meat every day, eat it, but flush your kidneys with salts occasionally, says a noted authority who tells us that meat forma uric acid which almost paralyzes the kidneys in their efforts to expel it from the blood. They become sluggish and weaken, then you* suffer with a dull misery in the kidney region, sharp pains in the back or sick headache, dizziness, your stomach sours, tongue is coated and when the weather is bad you have rheumatic twinges. The urine gets cloudy, full of sediment, the channels often get sore and irritated, obliging you to seek relief two or three time during the night. To neutralize these irritating acids, to cleanse the kidntjs and flush off the body’s urinous waste get four’ ounces of Jad Salts from any pharmacy here; take a tablespoonful in a glass of water before breakfast for a few days and your kidneys will then act fine. This famous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia, and has been used for generations to flush and stimulate sluggish kidneys, also to neutralize the acids in urine, so it no longer irritates, thus ending bladder weakness. Jad Salts is inexpensive; cannot injure, and makes a delightful effervescent lithia-water drink. iMI GMT HSIR NOW Well-known local druggist says everybody is using old-time recipe of Sage Tea and Sulphur. Hair that loses its color and lustre, or when it fades, turns gray, dull and lifeless, is caused by a lack of sulphur ;n the hair. Our grandmother made up a mixture of Sage lea and Sulphur to keep ler locks dark ami beautiful, and tboutands of v.v.tr.eii and men who value that ■ven color, that beautiful dark shade of lir which is so attractive, use only this ■ld-time recipe. Nowadays we get Ibis famous mixture ■y asking at any drug store for a 5C ent bottle of ‘ Wyeth's Sage and Suldiur Hair Rcntcdy,” which darkens the ;air im n-’ilira!!-,-, so evgyjy, that nobodv t -»n possibly tell it Ins !*v»n applied.
