One Drop of Medicine Storied Him on the Road to Health How a strong man 'became weak as a "child because his stomach went on strike and forced him to live on soups, is a page taken from the life of Benjamin Leaf. His story is vouched for by hundreds of people in his home town. Here it is: "Four years ago I liad very serious trouble with myj stomach. It became so weak and bad that I had to live on soups, every kind of solid food hurt me, and the distress would become so great that I would almost faint. I got hold of one of your circulars, made inquiries . and found your medicine had merit, and commenced using same. Now I can . eat anything except cherry pie. I work for the City Water Company, reading meters and walk miles every day. Your medicine acts as a tonic and keeps up my strength." . ,; Mr. Leaf's story finds a parallel in thousands of homes.; For the past twenty years Hull's Superlative has been doing a wonderful work in restoring health to the sick and afflictfed, and what it has done for Mr. Leaf and thousands of others It certainly should do for you. Rheumatism, colds, grip, tonsilitis. Infantile, paralysis, dropsy, catarrh,, stomach - trouble, paralysis and similar troubles respond quickly, to Hull's ' Superlative. This medicine is made from roots, barks and one berry. All druggists sell it for $1.00 ; a ' bottle. - You can't buy health any cheaper : nor, any quicker than by investing in a bottle of Hull's Superlative. Adv, - ,

This understanding is that the British and French will expend every ounce of their available resources to hold Hindenburg in check this year and that next year the United States will take over a large section of the western front: ; The administration takes the position that despite the perils of the situation, measures conceived in panic and carried out in haste would only invite disaster, and tbat the wiser plan is to prepare carefully and fully to perform a long and arduous task."
