Dr. GiisttiT' Linnird's Taste Restorative Troches,
the Great Substitute, for Tofiacco. lt is a well
known and incontrovertable fact that the use of
J.obacco is the promoting cause of many of the
most severe MENTAL AND PHYSICAL disorders
to which the race of man is subject, as curcful an-
aiaMs inu long ana pamtui experience have clear
ly proven that it contaiasccrtain narcotic and poi

which by entering into the blood derange the
functions and operations of the Heart, causing ma
ny to suppose that organ to be seriously diseased.
TOBACCO affects also she entire nervous system,
manifesting itself as all who have ever used the
noxious weed will bor testimony in Lassitude,
Nervous Irritability, Water Brash. Dyspepsia, and
many other disorders of a similar character. The
'Taste Restorative Troches" are designed to coun
teract these baneful influences, and have proved
completely successful in a multitude of cases, and
wherever used. Being harmless in themselves
they exert a beneficial effect upon the entire sys
tem, restoring the Taste which has become vitia
ted or destroyed by great indulgence, complete
ly removing the irritation and accompanying tick
ling sensation of the Throat which are alwsvs
consequent upon abstaining from the use of To
bacco, and by giving a healthy tone to the Stom
ach, invigorate the whole system.
Persona who are irretrievably undermining
their constitutions and shortening their lives.
should nse these Troches immediately and throw
off tho injurious and unpleasant habit of Tobacco
