GROWING OLD
ought not to mean growing weak and feeble. It does 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 food. The Rev T. B. Swift, who for many years has> been a preacher of the gospel in Alexandra, Vie, tells of the benefit he has. derived from taking Dr Morse's Indian Root Pills. We use his own words: — "I have been a preacher of the gosnel for fifty -two y*ars s am now in my eighty^firsfc year.^ I suffered for a long time" from «ostiVeness, arid consequent indigestion. Dr Morse's Indian Root Pills was urougnt unaer my notice'some two yetu s ago. I took one pill every evening, and soon 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, in"crease 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 yeatrs ago." We commend the statements in this letter as being worthy of the fullest confidence. 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. 10
