MR. and MRS. WILBERT THOMPSON,
$01 Main St., Peoria, III.
MULL'S GRAPE TONIC CURED HIM.
Gilbert Thompson never knew a well day until last June he bad been constipated all bis life many
. doctors treated him, but all failed to even help him his health failed rapidly and on January 21,
' 1903, Mrs. Thompson asked us to suggest a treatment for her husband We thought the case
too serious and recommended that a specialist be consulted but he also failed to help the
patient NOW HE IS WELL. -' .
Mull's Grape Tonic Cured Him
Mrs. Thompson first wrote us as follows: "My husband, aged 23, suffers from sharp pains in his stomach and
sometimes thinks it is his heart. Let me know by return mail what oauses the pain, if you can. Mr. Thompson
has been treated by several doctors, but they have given him up." '
W promptly advised that a first-class specialist be consulted. We quote: "We want to sell Mull's Grape
Tonic, because we know it will cure constipation, but 50c. a bottle Is no object to us when a human life is at stake,
and if your husband's case is as serious as you state, we suggest you consult a reliable specialist, not the advertising
kind, promptly." At the same time, knowing that Mull's Grape Tonic could do no harm, we advised its use until a
physician could be consulted. January 25 Mrs. Thompson wrote that a physician had been consulted. He diag
nosed the case as being chronic constipation and dyspepsia. His treatment was followed faithfully, but there was
no perceptible improvement in Mr. Thompson's health. Then he began taking Mull's Grape Tonic and on Sept.
8, 1903, we received the following letter from Mrs. Thompson:
"You will remember that I wrote to you last January in regard to my husband's health. It
Is four months since he quit taking Mull's Grape Tonio for constipation, which he suffered from
since birth. He took just 24 bottles of it and is perfectly cured. He is much stronger and has
gained oonsiderabiy in flesh. I cannot thank you enough for Mull's Grape Tonic. 'It is worth its
weight in gold.' Just SI 2 cured him and he has spent hundreds of dollars with doctors who did
him no good. Now I want to state my case to you and expect your early reply. I also have consti
pation, have had for three years. Kindly let me know as I am sure it will cure me if you say it will,
as it did all you claimed it would in my husband's case. I await an early reply."
Very respectfully yours, MRS. W. H. THOMPSON, 801 Main St., Peoria, III.

Why Every Woman Should ook Her
Best.
The hand that rocks the cradle rules
the world. But the woman who is truly
beautiful reigns over a larger kingdom
than her own family.' She is admired and
respected by all who know her. Nature
intended that every woman should have
a beautiful complexion, but intense 20th
century civilization with its starchy, rich
foods and unnatural conditions, has done
much to rob her of her rightful heritage.
The secret of good complexion is in hav
ing rich, red blood, an active liver, per
fect digestion and a regular, daily ac
tion of the bowels. Every woman who
cares for a good healthy color in her face,
for bright eyes, a ruddy glow, a clear
skin and a ruddy complexion should take
Laxakola every night until her condition
is just what it should be. Laxakola
starts the liver going, drives out the bile
that clouds the complexion, encourages
the , action of the bowels, and cures
chronic constipation by assisting nature
to do its own perfect work. If you want
the bloom and charm of a clear, healthy
skin, try Laxakola on Huntley Bros. Co's
recommend and if after using a 25c bot
tle you see no Improvement the druggist
will hand back your money without the
least argument.

CENTENNIAL NOTES.
A Japanese tea house and garden, built
on the edge of Guild's Lake, constitutes
a new feature at the Lewis and Clark
Exposition. The house is built in the
dainty Japanese style, and tea and rice
cakes are served on the cosy veranda by
cute little maids from Japan. The new
establishment is located on Gray's boule

of the liver and stomach, my heart was

very bad for a long time, but In Electric
Bitters, I found Just what was needed, for
they quickly relieved and cured me.

Pepsikola Tablets of Priceless Value In
Relieving Indigestion.
Health is everything. Many a mil
lionaire would wilingly part with half
his fortune for perfect digestion. Riches
fame and the realization of every desire
cannot create contentment if indigestion
is making one's existence miserable.
When Huntley Bros. Co. tell you that in
all their experience they never knew any
thing so ure to relieve sour stomach.
coated tongue, dizzy spells, poor appetite,
lassitude and fatigue due to imperfect
digestion, there must be some good rea
son for their confidence, and there is.
Dozens of chronic old dyspeptics right
here in Oregon City who dispaired of
ever getting relief have tried Pepsikola
Tablets on Huntley Bros. Co.'s recom
mend and today are completely cured.
Moreover, a druggist could not . afford
to keep on recommending an indigestion
remedy unless it really will cure, for
you would mighty soon lose confidence
and trade at some other store. Pepsi
kola Tablets are a grand nerve tonic,
they will give you new energy and new
ambition, improve your appetite, and
strengthen your digestive organs and un
less they give you perfect digestion
Huntley Bros. Co. will gladly pay your
quarter back. '
