WHEN THE KIDNEYS
ARE AILING.
The Urgent Need of Prompt Restora
tive Measures is Something
That Every One Should
Understand.
“A Stitch in Time Saves Nine.”
Slight disorders in the kidneys or uri
nary organs are more serious than most
people think. The first warning symp
toms should receive prompt medical
treatment to ward off Bright’s Disease
or some other dangerous malady. When
the kidneys are ailing and the symptoms
become sufficiently pronounced to be
noticeable the condition calls at once
for prompt measures to stay the progress
of the disease. Prickly Ash Bitters is
the remedy needed. Taken on the ap
pearance of the first symptoms, such as
pain in the back, puffiness under the
eyes, irregularities in the urine, digestive
disorders, it will save the victim incal
culable misery and suffering, mental
torture and expense. Used at the begin
ning of the trouble it cures quickly.
Used in the more advanced stages it will
win back health and strength as rapidly
as circumstances will possibly permit.
Accept no substitute. Insist on having
the genuine Prickly Ash Bitters with the
large figure 3 in red on the front label.

LETTER TO MR* WALTER DA
VIS, NEWPORT, ARK.
Dear Sir: Three gallons saved

said it would take 15; a lead-and

They say everybody has the same
experience there.
me reason is, ui cuuise, uic;.y
are used to poor paint.
What is poor paint? Anything
not Devoe; some worse than
others.
Besides, paints wear about as
they cover. Double the $12 tq
$15. Yours truly,
F. W. Devoe & Co.,

Dr. Miles’ Restorative Nerv
ine has been so successful in
curing these brain-wrecking
diseases that there is every
reason to believe that even the
most hopeless cases can be
benefited, if not fully restored.
We will be pleased to refer
any one thus afflicted to many
who now enjoy the blessing of
health, after years of hopeless
suffering.
“I have a son that had brain fever
when two years old, followed by fits of
the worst type, and he was pronounced
incurable. I spent hundreds of dollars
for him, without relief. After about
fifteen years he became so bad that we
sent him to Long-cliff hospital for the
Insane, at Logansport, Ind. He was
there nearly three years, but he con
tinued to grow worse, so we brought
him home July 30, 3902, in an awful
condition. He had lost his mind almost
entirely. lie hardly knew one of the
family; could not even find his bed;
was a total wreck. He had from 5 to
30 fits a day. We were urged to try
Dr. Miles’ Nervine, and before the first
bottle was used, we could see a change
for the better. We have given it to
him ever since, and he has had but
two very light spells since last August,
1903, arid then he was not well other
ways. We pronounce him cured, as he
can work and go anywhere. If any one
wishes to ask any questions concerning
this, they are at liberty to do so.”
E. H. BUNNELL, Lincoln, Ind.
