In The Spring -Time.
Any fool knows
enough to carry
an umbrella
when it rains?
but the wise man
is he who car-
ries one when
it is only: cloudy.
Any man will
send for a dec-
for when he gets
bedfast, but the wiser one is he
who adopts proper measures befog
his ills become serious. During I
hard winter or the following sprint.
one feels rundown, tired. out, weak.
and nervous. Probably you have
suffered from cold .; or influenza
which has -left you thin, weak and
pale. This is the time to put your
system in order. It" is time for
house-cleaning.
A good, old-fashioned alteative
and temperance tonic is one made
of wild rootsand"barks without the
use of alcohol, and called Dr.
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery,
in .tablet or liquid form. This is
nature's tonic, which restores" the
tone- of the stomach, activity of
the liver and steadiness to the
nerves, strengthening the:whole
system.
CENTRAL BtrrrE, SASK. -" I have used the
Giolden Medical Discovery' for a number of years
and am pleased to recommend it as a blood pur.

Discovery.' I also keep it on hand for cough*
