His spotters, who are both men and women, are liberally provided with money and other means of making an appearance that Would successfully de- ceive the drivers. They engage auto- mobiles at all the principal stations and whenever an overcharge is made report It directly to the the office. "I am golng to stamp out this dis- mesty,"" sald Mr. Sanderson to-day, Kgardiess of the expense. Our drivers are the highest paid in the world and recolve numerous tips.

I have treated nearly two million oases! Surely you'll admit that such experience must baye taught me some certainties. And-—all that T know of disease and cure— --Is condensed into my six books for the Sick, Write for a free copy to-day. They tell of my great discovery that prac- tieatly all) diseares can be permanently cured through the Sympathetic Nerves. Not the nerves we feel with, see with, hear with, but the inside nerves It ts these that unconsclously operate the Vital Organs—tho Heart, Liver, Kidneys, Brain, ete, N When the inside nerves get run down, that Organ which Is weakest in the body loses its power to act properly. It then throws its work upon the other Organs. These Organs in turn become affected through overwork, and so ecarcely any case is found without complications. T proved it useless to doctor the individ- wal Organs themselves while the Nerve- power to fully operato them was lacking. Sedatives temporarily deadened the pain, Dut increased the distress afterward, ‘Tonics revived the drooping powers, only to insure relapse so soon as the stimulus was withdrawn, Of what use to nOurly move ahead the bands of a watch if its mainspring be se- rlously weakened? There 1s but one sensible thing to do, viz.—stiffen up the matnsprin, ‘That {s what my now famous prescription —Dr. Shoop’s Restorative—does, It acts directly upon the Sympathetic Norve Centres jurt as steam acts in an Engine. It provides, through these inside nerves, the power to make the weakest organ do its duty.
