it is certain that something can be

Indigestion is often taken for con
sumption. The word consumption
means wasting away, and dyspeptics
often waste away as badly as consump
tives. The reason people waste away i
because either they don't get enough
to eat, or they don't digest what they
do eat.
If the latter is your trouble, take
Shaker Digestive Cordial. This will
help you to digest your food and stop
you' loss of flesh.
Shaker Digestive Cordial is made
from herbs, barks and juices of fruit

Bronchitis is catarrh of the bronchial
tubes. What is consumption? Con
sumption is catarrh of the lungs.
What is catarrh? Catarrh is an old
cold. A cold which at last becomes
settled and for which no cure can be
found. People are frightened at the
appearance of an epidemic. The pa
pers are full cf it. Houses are quar
antined. A thrill of fear and excite
ment pervades the country and yet all
epidemics combined do not cause so
mauy deaths as catarrhal diseases.
One reason lor this is tnat many peo
ple have catarrh, and another reason
that there are so few remedies that
have any lasting curative effect in
chronic catarrh. Indeed, it would al
most seem as if Pe ru-na was the only
