Their Freeness from such Com- plaints—The Cause of the Remarkable Phy- siques of tTieir Offspring The Whole Secret—Tie Use of Prairie Plant. CAUSE.—The womb is the seat of all “ Female Weakness.” It becomes inflamed, thickens and grows heavy with congested blood or serum. The un- natural weight of the swollen organ forces it forward and downward through the vagina or opening passage, and in severe cases, were it not for the aid an artificial supporter, the womb would protrude from the body. This results in inflammation, ulcers, tumors, and often cancers form, the whole system be- comes disorganized, and the victim suffers untold agony. SYMPTOMS.—The enlarged womb pressing against the spinal nerve, causes headache, general nervous disorder, despondency and often insanity. The swollen, sodden womb bears down on the bladder, causing inflammation and frequent and painful urination. Other symptoms are leucorrhea, desire to weep, so-called “liver spots5,” dark rings about the eyes, bearing-down pains, and soreness in the lower part of the abdomen. CURE.—There is but one way to cure “ Female Weakness.” The remedy must be applied directly to the seat of the trouble. All the medicine in the world, if taken internally, will not bring relief. The safest, surest, best remedy for this malady was discovered hundreds of years ago by the Kicka- poo Indians. They called it by a name which means in English, Pkaikie Plant. It is made entirely of herbs. Is absolutely harmless, and is the same to-day as it was when used by the Indians centuries ago. ACTION.—Pkaikie Plant rapidly reduces the womb to its normal size by absorbing the serum. It allays all inflammation, heals ulcers, and even cures ovarian tumors.

Copyright, 1897, by Klckapoo Indian Medicine Co, The Kickapoo Indian Remedies Have acquired a wide-spread fame and have done more to help suffering humanity than any other medicines. This is not surprising when it is remembered that the Indians are not only the most healthy, but probably the oldest race in the world ; and their natural and practical knowledge of medicine is the result of progressive study, and steady experience, which has been acquired, increased, and handed down from generation to generation. They have been born in nature's bosom and reared in nature’s lap ; hence the mys- teries of all nature is an open boojj to them. They live up to nature’s laws and partake of nature’s remedies, and this gives them the healthy lungs, superb muscular power, strong constitution, lux- uriant hair and sound white teeth for which they are noted. No one has ever seen a deformed or a bald-headed Indian. No form of epidemic disease has ever developed among them ; nor do they suffer from rheumatism, dyspep- sia, neuralgia, liver complaint, kidney disease, or any of the thousand and one ills with which the rest of mankind are afflicted. They live longer than any other race, and as a rule die only from old age. Their women are healthy, strong, straight as reeds, with supple, graceful limbs, bright eyes, abundant hair and skin as clear and smooth as polished bronze. The Indians are also bright, and quick of perception, and of all the tribes, none are more intelloc- ual than the Kickapoos, and they have discovered superior medical qualities in certain barks, roots, herb's, gums and leaves, never ascertained or applied before. No metallic or mineral substances ever enter into the composition of their remedies, and the peculiar compounding of their medicines is known only to themselves. These Kickapoo doctors now manufacture Eight Special Eemedies : Kickapoo Indian Sagwa, Kickapoo Indian Oil, Kickapoo Indian Cough Cure, Kickapoo Indian Pills, Kickapoo Indian Prairie Plant, Kickapoo Indian Salve, Kickapoo Indian Worm Killer, Kickapoo Soap, all made from the medicinal properties of herbs, roots, harks, flowers, leaves, etc. Although simple in their nature they are ■wonderful and efficacious in effecting cures, in all cases where recommended. 4 The First Time of Everything. 5 Miscellaneous First Events.

We at e prompted to make known a few facts concerning the various forms of diseases which are increas- ing throughout the world, because of tire dreadiul, wide-spread and fatal havoc they are creating. From what sources do they spring ? It is well known, that the two most important organs in the human body are the stomach and liver ; they are the all- powerful factors in determining the conditions of health or disease. The system looks to the stomach for nourishment, where, in conjunction with the bowels, the process called digestion takes place. The stomach is the most sensitive organ of the body, ns it is controlled by the brain and nervous system. Overwork of the mental powers draws the nervous influence from the stomach and di- gestion is retarded. The liver, it is well said, controls the health or hap- piness of man. When diseased and not doing its proper wrork, the diges- tion of food, the heart movements, the vitality of the blood, the action of the brain and the whole nervous sys- tem are deranged, and unless re- lieved, sickness and death must fol- low. Therefore, if good health is to be enjoyed, the liver and stomach must perform their proper work ; as we have plainly stated, that nineteen- twentieths of all diseases of the hu- man body arise from disorder of these two organs. The list of these com- plications is a heavy one and includes all kinds of bilious disorders, dyspep- sia, headaches, constipation, female weakness, various bodily pains, neu- ralgia, rheumatism, kidney difficul- ties, colic, bilious diarrhoea, heart disease, nervousness, fevers of all types, malaria, fever and ague, and even the yellow fever in the South. If the stomach is sound and the liver healthy, all these sufferings could be avoided. A universally healthy condition has never yet been attained, and never will be. To the end of time disease of some shape will exist and claim its victims from year to year. Sources of Disease. 6 The First Time of Everything. First Chloroform discovered by Soubeirun 1831.

Suicide is a thing unknown among the people of so-called savage races. Dyspepsia is found only where civili- zation exists! Dyspepsia. We are fast developing into a race of dyspeptics. And it is an alarming fact that suicide is on the increase I Is not this a subject for thought? Dyspepsia is a disease that comes on gradually. The first symptoms are belching of wind and feeling of weight in the stomach after meals, lumps in the throat like apple cores, tongue badly coated, with bad taste in the mouth; unnatural formation of gas in the bowels; hot, dry mouth; parched lips; premature decay of teeth; con- stipation, with piles and headache. If these symptoms are not properly treated they soon develop into a more painful and dangerous form. The disease becomes chronic. The feel- ing of heaviness in the stomach is followed by sharp, intermittent pains; ulcers form, and the pain is relieved only by vomiting; constijration is followed by diarrhoea of undigested excretions; the mouth not only be- comes dry and feverish, but canker appears; the skin is sallow, with un- sightly eruptions; sharp pain in left breast; pressure on the heart; caus- ing palpitation at the least excite- ment; the eyes are weak and lustre- less; the headaches increase and are followed by prostration; the depres- sion of spirit is so fearful, the mental strain so great, the mind becomes diseased ; the poor victim grows mor- bid; his life is unbearable,"and, in a moment of mental aberration, many a sufferer has doubtless taken his own life. Or, chronic dyspepsia may develop into that dread disease, cancer! The very sound of that word strikes terror to the stoutest heart. The causes of dyspepsia are various. Irreguler mode of living, excessive use of stimulants, careless disregard The rifjc Time of h-very thing. Loss of Appetite. This is a symptom of dyspepsia, but may uot manifest itself until some weeks, or even months, after the dis- ease .has developed. Sooner or later, however, the appetite diminishes or is lost ; the sufferer prows thin ; the eyes sunken ; the complexion sallow; the voice feeble, and the spirit depressed. At short intervals the appetite may become unusually great and the mind cheerful, only to be reversed by a return of indigestion. If t he dyspeptic eats the usual amount as in health, it is followed by hours of distressing pain, and often vomit- ing. The stomach loses all desire for food ; the patient becomes fastidious and bard to please. Kickapoo Indian Sagwa is without question the finest corrective for this state of things. It gives tone to the stomach, stimulates the gastric juice and restores the appetite. THOMAS A. EDISON. Originator of nearly One Thousand Patents. of diet, grief, anxiety, overwork—in fact, everything which weakens the stomach may produce it; or it maybe sympathetic in its nature, as in liver troubles, congested womb or ovaries in woman. SICK TEN YEARS. Fayette City, Missouri. I wish to tell you what the Kicka- poo Indian Sagwa lias done for me. I was sick for ten years and I tried all the doctors in the neighborhood and found no relief. I often felt that death would be a welcome messenger for me. I was a mere skeleton until eight years ago this summer when your Indian Show came to the town of Scotland and I purchased a bottle of Sagwa and took it according to directions. In a few days I felt bet- ter, and when I bad taken another bottle I felt well, and have taken no medicine since that time. I am in perfect health and weigh 164 pounds and I feel that I owe my life to Kick- apoo Indian Sagwa. You now know the symptoms and cause of dyspepsia; we will proceed to tell you why Kickapoo Indian Sagwa will cure it, Sagwa produces in increased activity of the digestive organs; it keeps the bowels free and regular; it strikes to the root of all diseases by purging and cleansing the blood, regulating all its secretions and excretions, painly showing that it is the natural remedy for dyspepsia; and the unparalleled success Indian Sagwa has mot with in the most.ex- treme cases of this tormenting dis- ease justifies us in urging all who are afflicted with this disease to give Indian Sagwa a trial.

First Practical Electric Railway constructed at Berlin by Dr. Werner Siemens 1879. The liver is the largest organ in the body, and has many important func- tions. The chief of these is to secrete the bile from the blood of the spleen, intestines and stomach. When it fails to do this there is trouble at once, and, among the many diseases liable to this organ may produce con- gestion or enlargement of the liver, abscess of the liver, fatty liver, and what is commonly known as gin- drinkers’ liver, etc. In all these cases the liver is morbid and sluggish, to- gether with various other symptoms, such as furred tongue, with bad taste in the mouth ; a dull, heavy pain in the head ; sickness at the stomach ; rising in the throat of a sour fluid, which is of a somewhat pungent char- acter ; the eyes and skin become a greenish yellow color ; there is diz- ziness of the head and spots before the eyes ; pain in the right side under the shoulder-blade, with hacking cough ; the breathing is oppressed, the pulse quick and irregular ; the urine is high-colored, sedimentary and scanty ; there is more or less dropsy of the abdomen and lower ex- tremities, with cold hands and feet; the kidneys, forced to do double work because of the sluggish action of the liver, cause pain in the back and heat in urination ; the nerves are affected ; the sufferer becomes cross, fretful and everything goes wrong. As previously stated, the liver has be- come clogged with bile, and, instead of passing off in its natural channels, has worked its way into the blood ; and bile in the blood is poison. This makes it plain that full doses of In- dian Sagwa must be taken to give free action to the stomach and bow- els, stimulate the torpid liver to a healthy activity, and force the troub- lesome and dangerous bile which has lodged in the blood back into the channel nature has provided. We emphatically state that Kickapoo In- dian Sagwa can do all this, and thousands of our patients caa say it has done it. First Mariners’ Compass constructed by Hoang-ti, Chinese emperor, B. C. 2634.

Ailments from this cause are so common as to be alarming; and all the more so as kid- ney disease may long exist without knowing it. If you have dull pains in the loins, and over the region of the kidneys, shooting along the spine, sharp pains on suddenly rising from a stooping position, scanty flow of urine containing greasy froth, albumen, tube-casts, and, as in Bright’s disease, sometimes tinged with blood; dropsy, pallor of countenance, heart trouble, fever, preceded by rigor; flatulence of stomach and constipation—in fact, if you have any strange disorder that doctors can not permanently heal, Alien you have some form of kidney dis- ease, and we advise you to take Indian Sagwa, It is wonderful to note the peculiar penetrating power Sagwa has in all such cases. It permeates through the entire system, not sim- ply purifying the blood by dissolving the’hardened deposits in the kidneys, but actually cleansing every portion of the body and literally ridding it of the very germs of disease, thus prov- ing that for Bright’s disease and all kidney disorders the best and the most natural remedy is Kickapoo In- dian Sagwa. PROF. SAMUEL F. B. MORSE. Inventor of the Telegraph, First formal message sent, Washington, D.C., May 24, 1844. Kidney Disease. A GLORIOUS MEDICINE. In speaking of kidney disease, which includes all urinary difficulties, diabetes, Bright’s disease, etc., it is necessary to remember that among the worn-out materials that the sys- tem has no further use for is a lax-ge amount of water and various salts which nature passes off in two ways. When the kidneys are healthy a large proportion passes through these or- gans to the bladder, and thence out of the system and the remainder passes off as perspiration through the pores of the skin. The skin and kidneys in their action assist each other. When the kidneys are overworked, and the skin is out of order, as from cold, these saline waters remain in the sys- tem, and become solid, thus forming what is called uric acid, which is a poison. And we all know what to ex- Montrose, Missouri. For years I was a terrible sufferer of Liver and Kidney complaint, com- bined with dyspepsia. Hearing of Kickapoo Indian Sagwa I procured the remedy, and after taking three bottles consider myself completely cured and I feel like a new man. It is a glorious medicine and deserves the warmest confidence of the people everywhere. Rev. T. Wasler.

The Indian squaw knows nothing of those distressing complaints peculiar to their “ pale sisters,” while it is universally ad- mitted that their increase is alarming in the present generation,-and are fast unfitting woman for the higher duty of continuing the race. Owing to the considerations of a delicate nature involved in these diseases, they have too long been shut out from works intended for public distribution. But the sufferings of women and the interest of humanity require us to describe these troubles just as they are, and make known the fact that they can be cured. We will give the symptoms of the different forms of The First Time of Everything, female diseases in a plain, simple way, so that all may undei’stand. These symptoms include distressing heat flushes and constant headache; press- ing on top of the head ; hysteria; extreme nervousness, with fluttering action of the heart ; weakness and pain in the kidneys, with general sense of heat, aching and dragging- down feeling in lower part of the bowels; this pain often extends to the groins axxd thighs, with gi'eat tenderness of the abdomen, and pain- ful pressure in the region of the bladder ; scalding pain in urination ; coldness of the feet, numbness of the limbs ; irregular and painful men- struation ; dyspepsia and obstinate constipation ; piles ; prolapsus, or falling of the womb, etc. Women love to look well, and who can blame them? Beauty is thfeir dower. Yet it is not a wonder that so many of them drag on wearily from day to day, their hollow cheeks, sun- ken eyes surrounded by dark circles, slow step and want of strength, show- ing only too painly weakness in the generative organs, when we consider their natural delicacy, which shrinks from treatment by instruments and violent lotions. These lotions treat only the effects, and it is useless to attempt the cure of female diseases until the cause is removed, which can only be done as nature intended it should be, by invigorating and regen- erating theliner oi’ganism through the general health. To be naturally re- stored! That is' the sweetest music to a great majority of women, who, from the very nature of their ills and ailments, suffer indescribable misery. To all the sufferei’s nature’s own restorer Kickapoo Indian Prairie Plant comes like a God-seud. Read what we have to say on the second page of the cover of this book. The price of Prairie Plant is SI.OO a bottle. Druggists have it or we will mail the remedy on receipt of price. Send two- cent stamp for book on Female Com- Constipation. , It is hardly necessary to assert that this complaint is one of the most common to which mankind is liable. It is an exciting cause of a long train of troubles, very often present in dyspepsia. It is this sluggish condi- tion of the bowels which aggravates, if it does not px-oduce, indigestion. Thei’e is a great difference ixx persons in regard to the frequency of the movement of the bowels in perfect health, some being subject to a daily movement, others oftener than this, while some may not perform the office for two or three days, yet each may have good health. Kickapoo Indian Sagwa is the most satisfactory medicine for constipation. It stimu- lates and cleanses the bowels at the same time. Heartburn. This is a symptom of dyspepsia, and a very troublesome one. It is occasioned by a gnawing pain at the pit of the stomaclx, accompanied with acid, hot and sour emotions. There may also be faintness and oppression, of the stomach, with wind and a watery discharge from the mouth. Kickapoo Indian Sagwa acts like magic for all such cases.

Rheumatism being caused by acid or poisonous matter in the blood, is essentially a blood disease, and must be treated as such- The large veins and arteries of the body become smaller as they near the turning points. These points are the joints of the limbs, fingers, toes, and ankles. When the liver becomes feeble and ailing, and the kidneys and bowels do not expel this acid from the blood in the proper manner, the acid remains in the blood and is carried to the small veins of the joints, where, the blood current being slower, this acid lodges, resulting jn the aches and pains which are called rheumatism. It visits all cold, damp climates, and is a merciless foe to male and female, rich and poor; few there are who have ever battled with it in either its acute or chronic state who care to en- gage in a similiar contest. In acute rheumatism the symptoms include severe pains in the joints and mus- cles, with swelling and great tender- ness of the parts affected, and agoniz- ing pain at the least movement. These pains are much increased at nig!it, and are manifested through the whole system by loss of strength, shivering, beat, thirst, restlessness, sleeplessness, a white, furred tongue, hard, quick pulse, and the skin is covered with a clammy sweat, instead of being dry as in fever. These pains may attack one joint, or extend to all, and have a tendency to shift from one part of the body to the other, but wherever they are, the Kickapoo Indian Sagwa will find them, and by the peculiar virtues of its herbs, gums, barks, etc., will neu- tralize the acid, poisonous condition of the blood, and at the same time in- vigorate the tissues of the important organs of the body, so that the proper evacuations of impurities may he made in the natural way through the kidneys agd bowels.

How many people complain of not feeling well, without knowing “ what in the world ails them.” They have headache, pains in the back, joints or limbs; bad breath and coated tongue; bad taste in the mouth, poor appetite, feeling of dullness; creepy, chilly sensations; drowsiness by day and unrefreshing sleep at night. These symptoms indicate malaria, and ma- laria is a poison which may come from low, wet, marshy lands, or may arise in the poisonons gas from any decaying vegetable matter; the last cause being why it appears in seem- ingly healthly localities. To the mul- titudes who suffer from this disease we would say that Kickapoo Indian Sagwa soon rids the system of every vestige of malarial poison, and is the best known specific for malaria in all its forms. COL. SAMUEL COLT. Inventor of first practical Repeating Fire Arms, Patented in England, France and United States 1835. EIGHTY YEARS OLD. Nashville, Tennessee. Melancholy. I have been a sufferer from Rheu- matism for the last forty years, and after trying various remedies I was induced to try Kickapoo Indian Sagwa, Kickapoo Indian Oil and Kickapoo Indian Pills. I have taken one and one-half bottles of Sagwa and four bottles of Indian Oil and one of Pills. Before I com- menced taking Kickapoo Indian Remedies I could not get my hand up to my head. Now I can use my arm freely, something I have not been able to do since last Fall. I am now eighty years old. The unfortunate person who has passed through all the stages of this deplorable affliction, until he feels that life is not worth living, is indeed an object of pity. How sad to hear the poor victim finding' fault even with his nearest and dearest; to see him peevish, irritable, melancholy, haunted by a dread of impending evil; perchance death itself. What happi- ness can there be for such an one. This is the curse of the dyspeptic, and as sure as relief is not offered death is inevitable! But there is a remedy. In this case as many others, Kickapoo Indian Sagwa comes as a harbinger of peace to both patient and friends; and if a persistent treat- ment is followed—strict attention to diet and full doses of Sagwa taken— this dread disease soon succumbs.

The first warning a patient has of the approach of this disease is a severe chilling sensation. He shakes all over with a feeling of in- tense cold; the teeth chatter; the face, hands and skin become pale; the body appears shrunken; the skin is rough and wrinkled, and is com- monly known as “ goose skin.” Af- ter an interval of half an hour or so, warmth returns and the system be- comes flushed with heat. This is folloAved by thirst, headache, dry tongue and restless feeling. In about an hour a profuse sweat follows. It is really divided into three stages, cold, hot and sweating; and this is what distinguishes it from other forms of fever. It is caused by mala- ria'in the blood, thus it goes without saying that Kickapoo Indian Sagwa Will prove the best remedy. The First Time «-f Everything, 15 Spring Medicine. Sour Stomach. The reason why every one needs to take medicine in the spring is obvi- ous from the fact that all nature changes at this season. Plants, trees and shrubs put forth new leaves ; over hill and dale fresh blades of grass spring up ; the rabbit changes color; the horse sheds his coat—in fact, the vegetable and animal kingdoms seem changing to new life. This also is the season when good housewives find it expedient to clean and clear up the dust and rubbish that has accu- mulated in our habitations. All these changes are necessary in the spring, and is it not more important that human beings should make themselves ready for these changing conditions by cleaning up the human house, thus insuring it against what are called spring and summer dis- eases ? This is another symptom of dyspep- sia, and is indicated by fermentation in the stomach and bowels, from which rise acid fumes. There is also much belching of wind and general uneasiness. The digestive functions must be corrected and the bowels kept free, and Kickapoo Indian Sag- w x is famous for all such cases. BOLD BUFFALO BILL. Col. Wm, F. Cody, (Buffalo Bill) speaks in high terms of Kickapoo Indian Remedies. Note what lie says in his own words concerning the wonderful results to be obtained by the famous Kickapoo Indian Sagwra : —“ I have known of its virtue for a long time, and on the frontier this and the other Kickapoo Indian Rem- edies are considered indispensable. I had occasion to use Kickapoo In- dian Sagwa for malaria and chill with the best of results, it is far supe- rior to quinine. I have also used Sagwa and Kickapoo Indian Oil for rheumatism and wras speedily cured. You may use my name and say that for what they claim to do the Kicka- poo Indian Remedies have no equal.” The reason why every one should take Kickapoo Indian Sagwa as a spring tonic is because it is composed of the most highly curative of the roots, herbs, barks, etc., to be found in nature’s garden, and these specifics are gathered and compounded by nature’s own children, the Indians, who, having studied the secrets of nature from time immemorial, have acquired a superier knowledge of all that growTs under the sun. These facts easily prove why Sagwa cleans out and builds up the human body, expelling impurities of the blood, creating an appetite and healthy digestion, putting the whole system in trim, the functions in working order, renewing vitality and giving strength to resist the heat and ills of summer. VERY MUCH PLEASED. West Cummington, Massachusetts. I have been taking your Kickapoo Indian Sagwa and am very much pleased with the results. I think that it is the right medicine for the Spring of the year. Yours Respectfully A. C. Thayer. Kickapoo Indian Sagwa cures disorders of the very worst kind, such as require perseverance to deal with— ulcers, scrofula, obstructions, bilious disorders, piles, etc., and almost any obstinate disease gives way by its free use.

Neuralgic pains are the result of a morbid condition or irritation of a particular nerve, and generally attack the brain and abdomen; in the latter case they are often attended with dis- order of the digestive organs, and when that disorder is corrected and the cause removed, they are lessened or cured. In neuralgia there is no swelling of the part, but a darting, writhing pain, which can only be de- scribed as excruciating. It is fre- quently chronic or of long duration, and is becoming very prevalent in this country on account of climate change. The quickest remedy known is In- dian Oil, and must be applied freely. Tonics must be taken, and none stand higher for neuralgic pains than Kick- apoo Indian Sagwa, The First Time of Everything. 17 General Debility. Impure Blood. This is a disease more commonly neglected than any other; for the reason, that the sufferer is able to be up and about most of the time, yet no complaint is harder to bear, or more deseiwes our sympathy. The patient is prostrated in body and mind ; and seems to grow old while yet young. At times the appetite is good, and again fails altogether ; there is an irresistible gnawing in the pit of the stomach, the skin is dry, and the body lean ; the eyes are clear, but still have a lifeless look; the nose is pinched, there is a general lack of energy and want of ambition to work, read, or even think; the body is racked with strange aches and pains, which shift from place to place ; the mind is filled with ner- vous fears, aud apprehensions of trou- ble ; the poor soul starts at the least noise, or will suddenly burst into tears ; nothing pleases the persons thus afflicted ; they are restless and overcome by a gloom impossible to shake off. What is to effect a cure ? Don't take so-called “nerve medi- cines ;” they are narcotics, and gu'e "worse than the disease. What you need, is the strengthening, healing, soothing qualities of roots, herbs and barks, which are found in Kickapoo Indian Sagwa, and which will tone up the liver and stomach, and bring back the appetite, and cause the pure red blood to flow briskly through your veins once more ; thus bringing health and happiness, in the place of misery and woe. The vital fluid which circulates through the body, giving it nourish- ment and strength, is of the highest importance. There cannot be a healthy condition of the body if the blood is impure. The germs of scrof- ula, salt rheum, and many other diseases, which sooner or later un- dermine the health, all arise from im- pure blood. To insure good health, this state of things must be changed; the blood must be cleansed from all impurities, and allowed free and un- obstructed circulation through both veins and arteries. Kickapoo Indian Sagwa is the acknowledged Blood Renovator. Its equal cannot be found in all the science of medicine and chemistry. In all cases of blood disease, Sagwa works like magic. SAGWA A GOD-SEND. Mr. C. Bauer, 438 Noble Street, suf- fered with blood poison since 1870. He was partially cured seven years ago, but the disease reappeared five months ago worse than ever. He doctored with the best physicians in this city without avail. I induced him to try a bottle of Kickapoo Indian Sagwa, which he did. After using one bottle he felt relieved. He is using his fourth bottle now and is cured entirely and says that Sagwa is a God-send to people suffering as he did. Chicago, Illinois. J. A. Okonski, Pharmacy cor. Noble and Cornelia Streets. Indian Sagwa for sleeplessness has acquired widespread fame. And Why ? That is easily answered : Its healing qualities clear up the whole system ; under its influence, the stomach and liver become healthy and vigorous, and the tired brain is soothed ; and the martyr to indiges- tion once more enjoys his rest. Sleeplessness. Kickapoo Indian Remedies are an insurance against pain and sick- ness. It is as advisable to insure your health as it is to insure your life. After reading this it is a duty you owe to yourself aud your family, if you have one, to go to the nearest drug-store and provide yourself with the health-giving aud pain-destroying Kickapoo Indian Remedies.

In olden times of superstition this disease, was believed to be cured by the patient being touched by the royal hand of the king. It was from this that the disease took the name of “ king’s evil.” A terrible evil it is; and yet more terrible is the fact that in the veins of the majority of people this disease exists. It may bo hereditary or acquired, varies greatly in degree, and manifests itself in widely different forms. Scrofula is a more formidable foe than either con- sumption or cancer, because it com- bines the worst features of both. It may be the origin of pulmonary con- sumption or cancerous growth. It attacks the glands, producing lumps and swellings; attacks the bones and joints, causing inflammation and chronic abscesses; it appears in the form of sores on the arms, neck, legs and feet; the eyes or ears may become ulcerated, and it often causes habit- ual swelling, and catarrh of the tis- sues of the nose. All cutaneous erup- tions and ailments, commonly called “ humors,” are caused by this deadly taint, which signifies that the blood is laden with foul and putrid matters; and this is the reason why Kickapoo Indian Sagvva is a remedy that Inis no equal for this loathesome disease. Sagwa has been called the “ King of all Medicines for the Blood,” and justly, too, as it has proved beyond question its power to cure scrofula-—• a power that the king alone was sup- posed to have in the long ago. It seems strange that so many bright young lives should be wrecked and ruined by secret enemies. How many parents have seen the color go out of the cheeks of some petted household idol, and then with restless sleep, gritting teeth, and even spasms, have not been able to tell what was the matter, Alas ! the poor little intes- tines had fastened to them those horrible parasites which are so de- structive to the child’s health. Kick- apoo Indian Worm Killer will save the bright young lives. The First Time of" Everything. 19 WITH GREAT PLEASURE. Duxbury, Massachusetts. With great pleasure I give this tes- timonial for the good that the Kick- apoo Remedies have done in my family. 1 bought a box of the Kick- apoo Indian Worm Killer and I gave my little two year old child one and a half of the lozenges and she passed lots of worms. husband is using the Kickapoo Indian Sagava for a blood trouble and he is benefited wonderfully by it. There is no mistake, the Kickapoo Indian Medicines are wonderful remedies. I have all of them in my house and I wouldn’t be without them. Invented by Dr. Richard J. Gatling, Indianapolis, Indiana, 1861. THE GATLING GUN. Mes. Kate Higgins. That dread visitor, “ La Grippe,” is coming back. Last year the death- rate from this fearful disease was alarming; how will it be this year? You can escape. How? If your blood is circulating briskly through your veins, the chances are in your favor. With pure blood no one need fear diseases. The famous Kickapoo Indian Sagwa is blood-making, blo.od- cleansiug, wdiich means strength, and health. General good health means freedom from specific forms of dis- ease. The Kickapoo Indian Oil also proved wonderfully effectual in thou- sands of cases of “La Grippe” last winter. La Grippe, ENOUGH TO KILL. North Gray, Maine. I wish to give my testimony with the many others that have been bene- fited by your medicines. The Kick- apoo Indian Sagwa has cured me of rheumatism, chills and fever, piles and chronic diarrhoea. The Kick- apoo Indian Cough Cube, cured me of a bad cough, I have taken the Kickapoo Indian Medicines for several years and do not wash to be without them.

First public ’performance in a regular theatre of a play by an American citizen, “ Contrast ” by Royal Tyler, April 13, 178?. This is to certify that I have been a sufferer from rheumatism for the past two years, and have tried num- erous remedies without relief. Hear- ing of the Kickapoo Indian Sagwa, I purchased two bottles and used most all of it and am much improved in health. I can now go up and down stairs with ease, something unknown before. I also used Kickapoo Ja- dian Oil and Kickapoo Ixdiax Pills, and testify to the merits of both. Hoping that others may profit by this testimonial, 1 am, respectfully yours, Levi J. North, the American Equestrian, at Astley’s, London, England, turned the first somersault ever accomplished while standing upon the back of a horse. The question may he asked if such a perfection of health be enjoyed by the Indians, and such a course of medical treatment pursued by them, why not by the people of this coun- try? Reason and common sense alike suggest that the closer an individual follows the guidance of nature in health, the more promptly will nature come to the rescue in disease, and the more effectual the remedies pro- vided for its cure. To be born, to live, to die without sickness is nature. To be diseased is unnatural, and can only occur when nature’s laws have been violated. Asked and Answered. 1028 Scovel Street.

The same Remedy that effected his cure now used throughout Some years ago, Mr. Chas. Bigelow, now one of the proprietors of the famous Kickapoo Indian Remedies, was acting as a govern- ment scout in the Indian territory. He was known at that time as “ Texas Charlie,” and while on one of his expeditions was taken the Civilized World. sick with a severe fever, and for a few days lay at death’s door. During his sickness he was cared for by an Indian Chief and his family, in whose lodge he lay, so weak that ho could hardly raise his eyelidu. An Indian doctor visited him, and gave him that now most famous of Indian remedies, Indian Sagwa, and by its use he was snatched from the jaws of death and restored to Stealth, owing his life to the wonderful efficacy and curative power of this medicine. He then endeavored to persuade the Indians to give him the secret of its ingredients. This at first they refused to do, but after much persuasion and many discussions they at last partially yielded to his request, and the Chief of the Tribe sent East with Mr. Bigelow five of his most renowned medi- cine men, together with an ample supply of the roots, jierbs, barks, gums, etc., used in the manufacture of their medicines. What started thus in a small way has ever since increased, and to-day there is manufactured from similar materials gathered by the Indians them- selves, their famous remedies, which have done so much to alleviate suffering of every description. 26 BETTER THAN KLONDIKE GOLD Z KICKfiFOC IIDIM SAGHM Is a compound of the virtues of Roots, Herbs, Barks, Gums and Leaves.

Had he not known of some natural remedy, there would be few Indians left; but he found it in what is known as KICKAPOO INDIAN COUGH CURE, which is to-day the greatest known preventive and cure for: Deep-Seated.

THE TAPE gtVORM itself is white, very long and full of joints. It is generally bred either in the stomach or small intestines, and its exist- ence is frequently due to indigestion or a weak stomach. Its. effects, if not expelled, are very violent, and in time it eats the very life out of the sufferer. The difficulty has been with the »many remedies that have been forced onto the public, that they are either too- dangerous for the patient to take, or they only partially expel the worm. The searching properties of this Remedy are such that the worm is expelled— head, body and all. Though the market is flooded with remedies which are all extolled for their expelling power, and for killing the worm, yet no disease has so frequently baffled the physician’s skill. Here steps in the uncultured son of the forest, and with nature’s remedy sweeps away this frightful disease. Since its introduction, letters and testimonials have poured into the head- quarters, speaking in such terms of the Remedy that the success in the East is now fully established. So subtle is this Remedy in its action that there are no disagreeable after-effects which requii'e the use of strong purgatives, and by paying attention to the instructions which accompany each bottle a cure will be surely effected.
