To do this quickly, safely and at little nse, there is nothing so effective as Parisian sage (liquid form) which you can get at Lee & Osgood Co. and all good drug and teilet counters.

It's in great demand by dis- criminating women becauee it makes the hair so soft, lustrous, easy to ar- range attractively and appear heavier Lhtn it really is. A massage with Parisian sage is a rea] delight—easy to use, not sticky or greasy, and delicately perfumed—an antiseptic liquid free from dangerous ingredients and guaranteed mot to color the hair or scalp. If you want good looking hair and plenty of it by all means use Parisian sage—a little attention now insures beautiful hair for years to come.—Adv.

Gas_ distends the stomach and causes that full, oppressive, burning feeling sometimes known as heartburn, while the acid irritates and inflames the del- icate lining of the stomach. The trou ble lles entirely in the excess develop- ment or secretion of acid. To_stop or prevent this souring of the food ,contents of the stomach and to neutralize the acid and make it bland and harmless. a teaspoonful of bisurated magnesia, a good and ef- fective corrector of acid stomach, should be taken in a quarter of a glass of hot or cold water after €ating or whenever gas, sourness or acidity is felt.

UNSHAKEN TESTIMONY Time is the test of truth. And Doan’s Kidney Pills have stcod the test in Norwich. No Norwich resident who suffers backache, or annoying urinary ills can remain unconvinced by this twice-told testimony. Mrs, Margaret Brown, 340 W. Main St., says: “My back and kidneys were in a bad way. I suffered a great deal from_a dull, heavy ache in my back. It gradually srew worse until it was almost impossible for me to get out of bed mornings. I was in that condi- tion for nearly a year, trying different medicines witjout help. Finally 1 heard of Doan’s Kidney Piils and got some at Sevin & Son’s Drug Store, and I found they were just what I.needed. They- made me feel like a different woman, better than I had felt for vears. My Kkidneys are now acting regularly and the pains have left.” (Statement given July 22, 1911). On May 18, 1916, Mrs. Brown sai “Doan’s Kidney Pills certainly are ex- cellent and they do what is claimed for them. At times, when a cold settles on my kidneys and causes my back to ache. I use Doan's and they never fail to give me prompt relief.” 60e, at all dealers. Foster-Milburn Co., Mfgrs., Buffalo, N. Y. visit. in Bridgeton, R.
