TITO Flesherton ymiiiu ladies, Misses Few men on the road are better Known than genial George Fox. whose friends throughout the Wet are legion In the following letter he expresses gratitude for signal services rendered by Dr. Hamilton's Pills. He goes on tc say: "Until I used Dr. Hamilton's Pills and experienced their wonderful mildness and curativ.- power, I esti- mated th<> value of every pill by its activity. Talking about this to a well- known physician I met on the train the other day. he explained there are different kinds of drugs that act upon the bowels, the most active being known as drastic- Except in extreme cases where the life of the patient depends upon speedy evacuation ot the bowels, pills should never be dras- tic. Purgatives cause catarrh of the bowels and inflammation: their dose must be increased, causing even more harm. With such a clear explanation I could see why Dr. Hamilton's Pills are curative and not Irritating, why they are mild, yet most searching. "From my experience I recommend everyone that takes pills to give up the old-fashioned harsh, purging pill, and. Instead, to use Dr. Hamilton's. They cure headache, biliousness, con- stipation, bad stomach, and keep the system In perfect condition." Refuse any substitute for Dr. Ham- ilton's Pills; 'sold for 25c., all dealers.
