The most eminent medical scientists are unanimous in the conclusion that the generally accepted limitation of human life is many years below the at­ tainment possible with the advanced knowledge of which Hie race is now possessed. The critical period, that determines its duration, seems to be between 50 and 60; the' proper care of the body between this decade cannot be ^00 strongly urged, carelessness then being fatal to longevity. Nature's best helper after 50 is Electric'Bitters, the scientific tonic medicine that revital­ izes every organ of the body. Guaran­ teed by N. H. Petesch, F. Masquelet, McHenry; G. W. Besley, West McHen­ ry, druggists. 50c. Place Your Order Now. The government postal authorities have caused to be posted in every posi- office in the country a circular letter to the public, urging everyone to use en­ velopes with a return card printed thereon. Every business man, farmer or person of any occupation should have his name and address printed on his envelopes, thus insuring their return to the sender if anv mistake is made in the address. Call at The Plaindealer office and leave orders for this stationery and it will be put up in first-clasa manner. I will mail you free, to prove merit samples of my Dr. Shoop's' Restorative, and my Book on either Dyspepsia, The Heart or The Kidneys. Troubles of the Stomach, Heart or Kidneys are merely symptoms of a deeper ailment. Don't make the common error of treating symptoms only. Symptom treatment is treating the result of your ailment, and not the cause. Weak stomach nerves --the inside nerves--mean stomach weakness, always. And the Heart and Kidneys as well have their controlling or inside nerves. Weaken these -nerves and you inevitably have weak vital or­ gans. Here is where Dr. Shoop's Re­ storative has made its fame. No other remedy even claims to treat the "inside nerves." Also for bloating, biliousness, bad breath or complexion, use Dr. Shoop's Restorative. Write me today for sample and free book.

All the blood in your body passes through your kidneys'"itce every three minutes. The kidneys are your blood purifiers, they fil­ ter out the waste or impurities in the biooa. if they are sick or out Of order, they nui to do their work. Pains, aches and rheu­ matism come from ex­ cess of uric acid in the blood, due to neglected kidney trouble. Kidney trouble causes quick 07 unsteady heart beats, and makes one feel as though they had heart trouble, because the heart is over-working in pumping thick, kidney- poisoned blood through veins and arteries. It used to be considered that only urinary troubles were to be traced to the kidneys, but now modern science proves that nearly all constitutional diseases have their begin­ ning in kidney trouble. If you are sick you can make no mistake by first doctoring your kidneys. The mild and the extraordinary effect of Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, the great kidney remedy is soon realized. It stands the highest for its wonderful cures of the most distressing cases and is sold on Its mertts by all druggists in fifty- cent and one-dollar siz­ es. You may have a Sample bottle by 5Ti&n Home* -of SwaEjfr*-Hcc£. free, also pamphlet telling you how to find out if you have kidney or bladder trouble. Mention this paper when wrffing Dr. Kilmer 5e Co., Binghamton, N. Y. Don't make any mistake, but remem­ ber the name, Swamp-Root, Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, and the address, Bingham­ ton, N. Y., on every bottle. Of Special Interest to Women.
