COOK ON ftlAPPER TROUBLES Bladder troubles make life miserable te those who suffer from them, and unlesa they are promptly overcome they are cer> tain to cause serious conditions. Inflam* mation of the bladder la becoming mora and more common and when neglected II develops ulceration and this may be'fol* lowed by perforation and death. The lrrl* table condition that demands frequent evacuation during the night as well as day time, is a source of great mortification an4 discomcomfort to old and young. Dr. Cook, of Chicago, an authority oa kidney and bladder troubles, says: "It is impossible to find a single agent that is a specific for this class of troubles, because there are so many different struo- tures involved in the organs. However, we are able to combine the best known remedies and obt&In most excellent re* suits. The preparation known as Four's KIDNEY CUBX is an ideal combination* I use it exensively in my practice and find It can he employed successfully in every form of kidney and bladder trouble." FOLEY'S KIDHBY CUKE IS an honest preparation. It is not a decootion of soma hitherto unknown root or herb claimed to be a cure-all. Common sense tells us that such preparations have but little it any value. FOLEY'S KIDNEY CURB con* tains all the best known agents used by kidney and bladder specialists combined in a manner that renders them most effeo> tlve and pleasant to take. In even the most hopeless cases its use gives relief and when taken in time cannot help but curt every form of kidney or bladder troobl* N. H. PETESCH. Proverbs "When the butter wont come put a penny in the churn,w is an old time dairy proverb, it ofte'n seems to work though no one has ever told why. When mothers are worried because the children do not gain strength and flesh we say give them ,Scott's Emul­ sion. It is like the penny in the milk because it works and because there is something astonishing about it. Scott's Emulsion is simply a milk of pure cod liver oil with some hypophosphites especially prepared for delicate stomachs. Children take to it naturally because they like the taste and the remedy takes just as naturally to the children be­ cause it is so perfectly adapted to their wants. For all weak and pale and thin children Scott's Emulsion is the most satisfactory treat­ ment. We wlH send you the penny, L e.m a Mmple free.
