As manag- ing executor of the Kuntz estate, he is at the head of a vast business, repre- senting an investment of many thous- ands of dollars, and known to many people throughout the Province. Solid financially, Mr. Prank Bauer also has the good fortune of enjoying solid good health, and if appearanoes indicate anything, it is safe to predict that there's a full half century of active life still ahead for him. But it's only, a few months since, while nursed as an invalid at the 1111. Clemens sanitary resort, when his friends in Waterloo were dismayed with a report that he was at the point of death. " There's no telling where I would have been had I kept on the old treat- ment," said Mr. Bauer, with a merry laugh, the other day, while recounting his experiences as a very sick man, "Mt. Clemens," he continued, "was the last resort in my ease. For months previous I had beau suffering indescribable tortures. Ibegan, with a loss of appetite and sleepless nights. Then, as the trouble kept growing, I wens getting weaker, and began losing flesh and strength rapidly. My stomach refused to retain food of any kind. During all this time I was under medical treatment, and took everything prescribed, but without relief. Just about when niv condition • eo^w ans seemed most hopeless, 1 heard of a wonderful cure effected in a case somewhat similar to mine, by the Great South American Nervine Tonic, and I finally tried that. On the first day of its use I began to feel that it was doing what no other medicine had done. The first dose relieved the distress completely. Before night I actually felt hungry and ate with an appetite such as I had not known for months. I began to pick up in strength with surprising rapidity, slept well nights, and before I knew it I was eating three square meals regularly every day, with as mach relish as ever. I have no hesitation. whatever in saying that the South American Nervine Tonic cured me when all other remedies failed. I. have recovered my old weight—over 200 pounds --and never felt better in my life." Mr. Frank Bauer's experience is that of all others who have used the South American Nervine Tonic. Its instantaneous action in relieving dis- tress and pain is due to the direct effect of this great remedy upon the nerve centres, whose fagged vitality is energized instantly by the very first dose. It is a great, a wondrous cure for all nervous diseases, as well as indigestion and dyspepsia. It goes to the real source of trouble direct, and the sick always feel its marvel- lous sustaining and restorative power at once, on the very first day of its use, Sold by Deadman & McOoll BREAK IN THE WAR CLOUD, THE SULTAN SEEKING EXCUSES FOR YIELDING.
