' " Pitcher's Castoria. ! The man with a weight on his leg can't hope to win in the race. A man with a weight on his health can't expect to compete in life and business with those who are not handicapped. A man who spends two-thitds of his time in business, and one-third of his time being sick, cannot be expected to ac complish more than two-thirds as much as the man who at tends to business all the time. If his brain is heavy, and his blood sluggish, because of constipa tion, he will not suc ceed in doing any thing very .well. Constipation is the cause of nine-tenths of all sickness. It isn't considered sickness by most people, but it is just the same. ; It is serious sickness, because it causes almost all of the.ill nealfch of mankind. Symp tomsr of if are sallowness, listlessness, poor appetite, bad taste in the mouth, diz ziness, biliousness, and las- Constipation can be-cured , easily and certainly by the use of , Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets. They are periectly sim ple perfectly safe. They are not at all violent in their action, and yet they are more certain than many medicines which are so strong that they put the system all out of order. The great advantage of the "Pleasant Pellets" is that they cure permanently. You don't have to keep on taking them. You don't acquire a " pellet habit." Take them regularly for awhile, and you are cured permanently. After that, take them only when you find your self suffering from indigestion.
