GROWING OLD
ought not to mean growing weak and feeble. It docs not mean weakness or feebleness for those who eat with good appetite and sound digestion. It is of the utmost importance that old people should retain the power to digest and assimilate food, which is the sole source of physical'strength. When age brings feebleness, it is generally because of the failure to assimilate the nutrition contained in *ood. The Rev. T. B. Swifr, ■who for many years has been a preacher of the Gospel in Alexandra, Vie, tells of j the benefit he has derived from taking 1 Dr. Morse's Indian Root Pills. We use his own words: "I have been a preacher of the Gospel for fifty-two years; am now in my eighty-first year. I suffered for a long time from costiveness, and consequent indigestion. Dr. Morse's Indian Root Pills were brought under my notice some two years ago. I took one pill every evening, and sopn under that method my costiveness and indigestion were relieved, and my bowels as regular as the morning. They assist Nature in the discharge of all her functions, increase the appetite, produce sound sleep, and give elasticity of spirits. I always preach three times -on the Sundays, and drive long distances to my'appointments. I enjoy life and the Lord's work to which He called me more than fifty years ago:" Wo commend in this letter ate being worthy of the fullest conn'i dence. Dr. Morse's Indian Root Pills are a perfect and positive cure for all diseases arising from a disordered condition of the Stomach, Liver and Kidneys. Packed in amber bottles and the full name blown thereon. ACCEPT NO SUBSTITUTES.
