noxious gas, however, has not beon dis

oil lamp was burning, smoking, mid there

FREE CURE FOR MEN.
A Michigan Man Offers to Send Ills Dis
covery Fiee.
Claims to Be a Benefactor to Weakened
Mankind.
j There Is always more or less suspicion
nttnchcil to anything that is ofl'ered frco hut
sometimes a man so overflows with genorosity
; that ho cannot rest until his discovery Is
known to tho world. In order that his fellow
men may profit by what ho has discovered.
It Is upon this nrlucliml that n resident of
Kalamazoo, Mich., desires to send free to
mankind a prescription which will curotlicm
of any form of nervous debility ; rellovos
them of all tho doubt and uncertainty which
such men aro peculiarly liablo to and restores
tho organs to natural size, and vigor. As it
costs nothing to try the experiment it would
seem that any man, suffering with the
nervous troubles that usually nttnek men
who never stopped to realize what might ho
the final result, ought to bo deeply Interested
In a lcuiedy which will restore them to
health, strength aud vigor, without which
tney continue to live an existence or untold
misery. As tho remedy In question was the
result of many years research as to what
combination would bo peculiarly cUectivo In
restoring to men the strength they need, It
would seem that all men sull'criiig with any
form of nervous weakness ought to wrlto for
filch a remedy at once. A request to H. C.
Olds, Dox 1712, Kalamazoo, Mich., stating
that you lire not seuding for thu prescription
out of Idle curiosity, but that you wish to
make use of the medicine by giving It a trial,
will bo answered promptly and without
eviilcnco as to where information came from.
The prescription is sent frco aud although
some may wonder how Mr. Olds can afford, to
give away his discovery, there is no doubt
about tho oiler being genuine. Cut this out
and send to Mr. Olds so that lie may know
how you camo to wrlto him. 12-2S-78t
