In sickness, if a certain hidden nerve goes wrong, then the organ that this nerve controls will also surely fail. It may be a Stomach nerve, or it may have given strength and support to the Heart or Kidneys. It was Dr. Shoop that first pointed to this vital truth. Dr. Shoop’s Restorative was not made to dose the Stomach nor to temporarily stimulate the Heart or Kidneys. That old-fashioned method Is all wrong. Dr. Shoop’s Restorative goes directly to these failing inside nerves. The remarkable success of this prescription demonstrates the wisdom of treating the actual cause of these failing organs. And it is indeed easy to prove. A sample five or ten days test will surely tell. Try it once, and see! Sold by A. F. Long.

In fact, so far as we know, the members of the board knew nothing about the deal and if sucn is the true conditions, who wui fall for the same? We trust the advisory board will see that the acts of the trustee are legal and that they fulfill their oath in looking after the taxpayers’ interests, and that no special taxpayer shall profit at the expense of others.
