There are men who still use a forked stick in place of a modern plow. There are also men, who, when they are troubled with a disordered stomach or liver, resort to the old-fashioned violent remedies that rack and rend the whole body, and while they give temporary relief, in the long run do the entire system a great amount of harm. Modern science has discovered remedies infinitely superior to these old-fashioned drugs, that do their work by promoting the matural processes of excretion and secre- tion and gently correcting all circulatory disturbances. When a man feels generally out of sorts, when he loses sleep at night, when he gets up headachey and with a bad taste in his mouth in the morning, when he fee] ll and 1 gic all day, when his and his food distresses im. when work comes hard and recreation is an impossibility, that man, though he : yt believe it, is a pretty sick man.
