The Red Light.

DANGER SIGNAL THAT MUST ALWAYS BE OBEYED. When there is danger on the railroad a red light is displayed. To run by this signal means death or injury to the passengers. All through life we see the danger signals and, if unheeded, sorrow, despair and sometimes death' result. These warnings are out by man or nature for our protection. Nature sends out a warning signal when her laws have been disobeyed and there is danger going farther before the wrong has been righted. The best machinery needs oil, so does the human machine. The system becomes run down and needs to be built up. It must be placed in a healthy condition before it will do its work properly. If the blood is impure aud the liver torpid, the stomach fails to do its work and dyspepsia, nervousness, catarrh, headaches, and constipation are the result. These are nature’s signal; Heed them before it is too late. A new combination of thoroughly tried and tested remedies called Knox Stomach Tablets are now offered to suffering humanity. This new vegetable remedy goes to the seat of those disorders, builds up the whole system and transforms the weak and infirm into healthy men and women. A single box will be a most forcible argumeutr to the sufferer. --- ------ ---- - : Knox Stomach Tablets immediately relieve indigestion and are a positive cure for dyspepsia. If your druggist does not sell them, send fifty cents with your address and that of the druggist to the Knox Chemical Co., Battle Creek, Mich., and a full sized box will be sent postpaid.
