MANY WHO AGE SUFFERING from the effects of the warm weather and are debili- tated, are advised by physicians to take moderat amounts of whisky twe or three times during the day. Ina little while those who adopt this advice frequently increase th» number of “drinks” aud in fime become confirmed inebriates A beverage which will not create this thirst for intoxicating Hignors. and which is intended especially for ti Benefit of debilitated persons, whether at home or ebroad, is Dr. Schenck 's Sea Weed Tonic. Cont tng the juices of many medical herbs, this prepar: ‘fon does not create an appetite for the tptoxicating up. The nourishing and the life sapporting prop- erties of many valuable natural productions con- tained fo ft and well known to medical men havea ‘most strengthening influence. A single buttle of the ‘Tonic will demonstrate its valuable qualtties. For debility arising from sickness, over exertion or from any cause whatever, a winegisasfal of Sea Weed ‘Tonic taken after meals will strengthen the stomach and create an appetite fur whol-some food. To all who are about leaving thetr homes, we desire to sy that the excellent effects of Dr. Schenck’s seasouable Femedies, Sea Weed Tunic, sud Mandrake Pills, are particularly evident when taken by thore w: fnjariously affected by a change of w 1 dist Blo persoa should leas home without taking a sup Diy of these safeguards alowg.
