I will mail you free, to prove merit. samplei of my Dr. Shoop’s Restorative, and my Book on either Dyspepsia, The heart or The Kidneys. Troubles of the Stomach, Heart or Kidneys, are merely symptons of a deeper ailment Don’t make the common error of treating symptoms only. Symptom treatment is treating the result of your ailment and not the cause. Weak Stomach nerves—the inside nerves—means Stomach weakness, always. And the Heart, and Kidney’s as well, have their controlling or inside nerves. Weaken these nerves, and you inevitably have weak vital organs. Here is where Dr. Shoop's Restorative has made its fame. No other remedy even claims to treat the “inside nerves.” Also for bloating, biliousness, bad breath or complexion, use Qr. Shoop's Restorative. Write me today for sample and free book. Racine, Win.

Columbus, Ind., July 25.—Mounted in automobiles, instead of on horses, and clad in linen dusters and goggles Instead of armor, George Medlam and E. E.
