Usually the first sign cf the disease is a little nore or tilcer, hut ns the blood
becomes more deeply poisoned the severer symptoms nre manifested, the
mouth nnd throat ulcerate, the glands iu the groins swell, a red rash breaks
out on the body, the hair and eyebrows come out, and often the body is cov

those who contract the poison sutler,
but unless the virus is diivcn from
the blood the awful taint is handed
down to offspring, and they ate its

Get What You Ask For!
First Knulnt-a ere l'uii'.
If our modern railway engines had
the same power to lnuh that they
have to nereniu they niinht, as you
children say, "nearly die" hutfihin
over tho way our first railway enjiines
looked. Little, ipieerly shaped, puny
things they were. Tho "Stourbridjie
Lion" it Id n't weiidi onet wenty-tlfth
part of the weight of an engine of to
day, nnd it looked ns if people might
well hesitate about risking their lives
behlud It. It was first used nt llones
dnle, in Pennsylvania, nnd It ran on
wooden rails with a thin layer of Iron
on them, l'eople gathered from near
nnd from far that 8th of August in the
year 1820, when the little British Hon
of iron and steel was to make its first
run. Tho wiseacres shook their heads
and prophesied all aorta of probable
disasters, nnd peoplo said that "noth
ing on enrtli" could tempt thein to
rlde.ncross the bridge spanning the
Lncknwaxen Itlver on "that thing."
Hut the little Hon went safely over
the bridge and over the eight or nine
mllea of track, which was tho entire
length of this Hue of railroad. St.
Nicholas.

the inuuicipiil clerks in Kansas City the

s fsHERE Is a Reason-
Why the Good Peoplo of
America buy Cascarets as
Fast as the Clock Ticks.
Every second some one, somewhere,
is Buying a little Ten-Cent Box of Cas
carets.
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 SO times to the Minute,
60 Minutes to the Hour, 3600 Boxes an
Hour, 36,000 Boxes a Day of Ten Hours,
1,030,000 Boxes a Month, and then some.
Think of it 220,000 Peoplo take a
Cascaret tablet each day. Millions use
Cascarets when necessary.
The Judgment of Millions of Bright
Americans is Infallible. They have been
Buying and Takifig Cascarets at that rato
for over Six years.
a true, faithful, loyal servant of Mankind.
Over Fiva Millions of Dollars havo
been Spent to make the merits of Cas
carets known, and every cent of it would
be kst, did not sound merit claim and
hold the constant, continued friendship.
Patronage and Endorsement of well
pleased people year after year,
There Is also a Reason
Why there are Parasites who attach
themselves to the Healthy Body of Cas-
caret's success Imitators, Counterfeiters,.
Substitutors.
They are Trade Thieves who would
rob Cascarets of the "Good Will" of th
people, and sneak unearned profits,
earned and paid for by Cascarets.
It IS not an Experiment, not an Acci
dent or Incident, but a sound, Honest
Business, based on Time-Trled-and-Tested
Merit, never found wanting.
Thero is a Reason.
Cascarets are tha implacable foe of
All Disease Germs; tho incomparable
cleanser, purifier and strengthener of tho
entire Digestive Canal.
They Act like Exercise on the Bowel
Muscles, make them strong and active
able to Help Themselves do their work
keep themselves clean.
Cascarets are the safe-guard of Innocent
Childhood against tho Dreadful Death
dealing Dangers that threaten tho Lives
of tho Little Ones.
They are Purely Vegetable, absolutely
Harmless, always Reliable and Efficient,
A Dishonest Purpose means a Dishonest
Product and a Disregard of tho Purchas
ers' Health or Welfare.
Beware of the Slick Salesman and his
ancient "Just as Cood'' story that com
mon sense refutes.
Cascarets are made only by tho Sterling
Remedy Company, and tho famous little,
ten Cent "Vest Pocket" box Is herej
shown. They are never sold in bulk.
Every tablet marked "CCC.,r
Bo sure you get tho genuine.
