Some member of the family circle may occasionally suffer from Biliousness and Indigestion, and one or the other will from From these little troubles more time to time exhibit the well-known symptoms of Constipation, serious complaints arise, and should therefore not be neglected. The slight headache, bad breath, and a discoloured tongue are the index to a disordered stomach; and the necessity of keeping a safe, sure, and reliable remedy in the house is apparent. By following such a course the more expensive method of calling in a doctor will be found quite unnecessary, That Dr. Morse's Indian Root Pills are the very best Family Medicine is vouched for by thousands of grateful men and women who speak from personal experience.
Dr. Morse's India
Root Pills are not simply a purgative medicine which forces the food out of the body, depriving the stomach of its nourishment and thus starving the system. They contain the essential properties that are temporarily lacking in the stomach through weakness, and complete the digestion and assimilation, and so restore the functions of the digestive organs by obtaining the maximum of nutriment from the food which sustains the body and assures good health,
DR. MORSE'S INDIAN ROOT PILLS are an efficient, reliable, and safe remedy placed on the market at a price within the reach of all. The Pills being sugar-coated, are pleasant to take, and retain their full medicinal properties. They are packed in amber-coloured bottles-not in cheap wooden or pasteboard boxes--and are thus always fresh and clean, impervious to moisture; unaffected by clunatic conditions, and do not deteriorate by keeping as all liquid medicines do.

Mr. Lloyd George, Prime Minister, said that any settlement acceptable to the Irish as a whole would be welcomed with delight by the United Kingdom. He was grieved that some means could not be found for unising Ireland in the interests of the Empire. The present Government did not depart from the attitude taken up by their predecessors. There must be no attempt to settle the question in a manner which would proroke disturbance in one part of the United Kingdom and divide the rest into two warring factions. The discontent of Ireland was not a material one, but the invincible fact remained that after all the record of beneficent legislation

The Prime Minister's pronouncement would have a very bad effect in neutral countries, and would take the heart aut of Irishmen fighting at the front.
