The old fashioned way of dosing a weak stomach, or stimulating the Heart or Kidneys is all wrong. Dr. Shoop first pointed out this error. This is why his prescription—Dr. Shoop’s Restorative—is directed entirely to the cause of these ailments —the weak inside or controling nerves. It isn’t so difficult, says Dr. Shoop, to strengthen a weak Stomach, Heart, or Kidneys, If one Aloes at it correctly. Each inside organ has its controling or inside nerve. When these nerves fail, then those# organs must surely falter. These vital truths are leading druggists everywhere to dispense and recommend Dr. Shoop’s Restorative. Test it a few days, and see! Improvement will promptly and surely follow. Sold by all dealers.

Deafness Cannot Be Cured by local applications, as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear. There is only one way to cure deafness, and that is by constitutional remedies- Deafness is caused by an inflamed condition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube is inflamed you haVe a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely closed, Deafnebc is the result, and unless the inflammation can be taken out and this tube restored to its normal condition, hearing will be destroyed forever; nine cases out of ten are caused by Catarrh, which is nothing but an inflamed condition of the mucous surfaces. We will give One Hundred Dollars for any case of Deafness (caused by catarrh) that cannot be cured by Hall’s Catarrh Cure. Send for circulars, free. F. J. CHENEY & CO., Toledo, O. Sold by Druggists, 75c. Take Hall’s Family Pills for constipation.
