Ve are In the drug business to make money, and If. in mak ing money, we can also be of material help to the residents of Portland, then the knowledge of having been an aid to the afflicted will be.

' Lest we did not make our statement of yesterday strong enongh, and because It may not have been understood by some, we again repeat that we Invite every person suffering from Rheumatism, Sciatica or Neuritis to call, send or telephone their order to us for a Si. 00 box of Nurlto. and that If Nurlto,; If taken In accordance! with the directions, which will be found In each box, dives not relieve the sufferer, we will refund the purchase price. Nurlto should not be confused with a patent medicine which It Is not, Nurlto Is a physician's prescription, free from opiate or narcotics aad Is absolutely harmless. It Is used and recommended by prominent physicians all over the country, and It Is because of Ita being so used that we were placed In a position to obtain It for Portland. If there la a skoptlc In this town who thinks that In any way w have overstated the facts who thinks that his raws is of such long standing thst Nurlto will do him no good let him, or her. come to see us and we will satisfy that person of tlio merits of this prescription.
