THURSDAY'S SPECIAL; Gladness Comes With a better understanding1 of the transient nature of the many nhva- ical ills, which vanish before proper ef-forta-enUeefforts pleasantefforte rightly directed. There ia comfort in the knowledge, that ao many forms of sickness are not due to any actual dis ease, but simply to a constipated condi tion of tbe system, which the pleasant xamuy laxative, csyrapoi rigs, prompt ly removes. That is whv it is the onlv remedy with .ir-r of families, and is everywhere esteeieJ ao highly by all who value rood health. Its beneficial effects axe due to the fact, that it is the one remedy which promotes internal cleanliness without debilitating the organs on which it acta. It is therefore all important, in order to get its bene ficial effects, to note when yon pur chase, that yon have the genuine arti cle, which is manufactured by the Cali- xornia. r ig syrup uo. only and sold by all reputable druggists. If in tbe enjoyment of good health, and the system is regular, laxativea or other remedies are then not needed. If afflicted with any actual disease, one may be commended to the most skillful physicians, but if in need of a laxative, one should have the best, and with the well-informed everywhere. Syrup of Furs stands highest and is most lanrelv used and gives most general satisfaction.
