OREGON CITY COURIER FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 5, 1909 2 A Clean Man Outside cleanliness is less than half the battle. A man may orub himself a dozen times a day, and still be unclean, (nod health means cleanliness not only outside, but inside. It means olean stomach, clean bowels, clean blood, a clean liver and new, clean, healthy tissues. The man who is clean in this wy will look it and act it. He will work with energy and think clean, clear, healthy thoughts. He will never be troubled with liver, lung, stomach or blood disorders. Dyspepsia and indigestion originate in unclean stom achs. Blood diseases are found where there is unclean blood. Consumption and bronchitis mean unclean lungs. Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery prevents these diseases. It makes a man's insides clean and healthy. It cleans the digestive organs, makes pure, clean blood, and clean, healthy flesh, It restores tone to the nervous system, and cures nervous exhaustion and prostration. It contains no alcohol or habit-forming drugs. Constipation is the most unclean uncleanliness. Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pel lets cure it. They never gripe. Easy to take as candy.

The Kramer adds very little draft, the average being less than 100 pounds even in the heaviest soils.

THIS WEEK'S SPECIALS Currents-Raisins - package 10c Pic-nicHams . per lb. lie Prunes ..... Der lb. 5c A. ROBERTSON Seventh Street Grocer, Oregon City " Do you know of any woman who ever received any benefit from taking Lydla E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com pound?" If any woman who is suffering with any ailment peculiar to her sex will ask her neighbors this question, she will be surprised at the result. There is hardly a community in this country where women cannot be found who have been restored to health by this famous old remedy, made exclusively from a simple formula of roots and herbs. During the past 30 years we have published thousands of letters from these grateful women who have been cured by Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, and never in all that time have we published a testimonial without the writer's special permission. Never have we knowingly published a testimonial that was not truthful arid genuine. Here is one just received a few days ago. If anyone doubts that this is a true and honest statement of a woman's experi ence with Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound write and ask her. Houston, Texas; TVhen I first began taking Lydla E. Pink ham s egetable Compound I was a total wreck. I had been sick for three years with female troubles, chronic dyspepsia, and a liver trouble. I had tried several doctor's medicines, but nothing did me any good. "For three years I lived on medicines and thought I would never get well, when I read an advertisment of Lydia E. Pink ham's Vegetable Compound, and was advised to try it. "My husband got me one bottle of the Compound, and it did me so much good I continued its use. I am now a well woman and enjoy the best of health. I advise all women suffering from such troubles to give Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound a trial. -They won't regret it, for it will surely cure you." Mrs. Bessie L. Hkks, 819 Cleveland St, Houston. Any woman who is sick and suffering is foolish surely not to give such a medicine as this a trial. Why should it not do her as much good as it did Mrs. Hicks.
