They promise moat wonderful results for the par- takers thoreof—yonth to the aged, strength and vigor to the decrepit, am- bitious animation to tho Indolent—In short, only limiting their restoring possibilities in cot bringing the dead to lite. A packageotthUlltc-glvlng com- modity called "Energizer" falls Into the hands ot a lazy, good-for-nothing hobo, who after eating generously ot tne palatable preparation, becomes a, giant ln strength, and performs such feats that would cause Hercules to turn green wltb Jealousy could he wit- ness them. His adventures are a series of the funniest Incidents ever chron- icled In motion pictures, and the film as a whole ln the race of laugh-pro- ducers Is the one best bet. Trade Mark.

Oentlemen:—It Is wltb a feeling of genuine pleasure that I give Gowan's Pneumonia Cure a word of strongest praise and recommendation to theatrical people and others suffering wltb colds, grippe, soreness In cnest or muscular ptlns. By Its use I obtained best results In a few hours' time; In fact, was benefited from first application. Its action Is quick and wondcrfnl, the very kind of a remedy we need as a safeguard and care. I trust my endorsement may be the means of others obtaining It and being benefited by Its use as I bave been. My advice Is to carry It In vonrgrlp snd feel secure. (Signed) JOHN a.
