EMPIRE ABDOMINAL SUPPORT.

EMPIRE ELASTIC BANDAGE

THE EMPIRE ELASTIC BANDAGE

SPECIALLY ADAPTED FOR VARICOSE VEINS. We invite the attention of the Medical and Surgical Profession to the various merits combined in our Bandages:

1st. ITS POROSITY-the greatest in the "Empire." I never causes itching, rash, or ulceration under the bandage.

2d. ITS ELASTICITY. which will enable the surgeon or nurse to put it on at any required tension, and which will follow a swelling up and down, as the case may be, a feature unknown to any other bandage.

3d. ITS ABSORBENT PROPERTIES-greatest in the "Empire."

4th. ITS EASY APPLICATION to any part of the body, not being necessary to fold over as with other bandages, as it follows itself with equal uniformity around any part of the abdomen.

5th. ITS SELF-HOLDING QUALITIES. No bother with pins, needles or thread, or string, so tiresome to surgeons, as simply tucking the end under the last fold insures its permanent stay until its removal for purposes of cleanliness.

6th. The only Bandage that is SUPERIOR TO THE ELASTIC STOCKING for varicose veins.

Send $1 for 3 in. by 5 yds. Bandage on approval.

34. In pregnancy, corpulency, tumors, or other cases of abdomen, it supports weight of body from the backbone, relieving the sinews of their overwork.

4th. Its easy appliance (lace and drawn on over head or feet).

5th. It is cheap; durable. It can be washed when soiled, proper care being taken to cleanse it in lukewarm water and dry in the shade.

The Standard Antiseptic.

LISTERINE is a non-toxic, non-irritating and non-escharotic antiseptic, composed of ozoniferous essences, vegetable antiseptics and benzo-boracic acid.

LISTERINE is sufficiently powerful to make and maintain surgical cleanliness in the antiseptic and prophylactic treatment and care of all parts of the human body. LISTERINE has ever proven a trustworthy antiseptic dressing for operative or accidental

wounds.

LISTERINE is invaluable in obstetrics and gynecology as a general cleansing, prophylactic or antiseptic agent, and is an effective remedy in the treatment of catarrhal conditions of every locality.

LISTERINE is useful in the treatment of the infectious maladies which are attended by inflammation of accessible surfaces-as diphtheria, scarlet fever and pertussis. LISTERINE is especially applicable to the treatment of scarlet fever, used freely as a mouth wash or by means of the spray apparatus.

LISTERINE is extensively prescribed in typhoid fever, both for its antiseptic effect and to improve the condition of the stomach for the reception of nourishment. LISTERINE agreeably diluted is prescribed with very good results in the treatment of diphtheria, both as a prophylactic and curative-internal antiseptic-agent.

LISTERINE is used extensively, with good results, in the treatment of whooping-cough. LISTERINE diluted with water or glycerine speedily relieves certain fermentative forms of indigestion.

LISTERINE is indispensable for the preservation of the teeth, and for maintaining the mucous membrane of the mouth in a healthy condition.

LISTERINE employed in a sick room by means of a spray or saturated cloths hung about is actively ozonifying, and imparts an agreeable refreshing odor to the atmosphere. LISTERINE is of accurately determined and uniform antiseptic power, and of positive originality.

LISTERINE is kept in stock by the leading dealers in drugs everywhere.

Constipation is the "bete noir" of the home; regarded by physicians as being probably the most potent factor in causing and inviting other diseases. A remedy which will help the doctor to educate the members of the families under his care, in the direction of a regular habit as regards the evacuation of the bowels, is desirable. "Syrup of Figs," as furnished to the medical profession and to the public, seems to the practising physician to be almost an ideal domestic or family laxative.

The California Fig Syrup Co. have frankly announced that their product, "Syrup of Figs," has, as its most energetic laxative agent, the active principle of Alexandria senna, which is the best senna in the world. "Syrup of Figs" is simple, safe, and reliable as a laxative; does not irritate or debilitate, does not disturb digestion, and favors the regularity of habit, so much to be desired. It is particularly to be recommended for ladies and children, although helpful in all cases where a laxative is indicated.

SPECIAL INVESTIGATION IS EARNESTLY INVITED.

"Syrup of Figs" is never sold in bulk. It retails at fifty cents a bottle, and the name of "Syrup of Figs," as well as the name of the "California Fig Syrup Co.," is printed on the wrappers and labels of every bottle. CALIFORNIA FIG SYRUP CO., SAN FRANCISCO, Cal.; LOUISVILLE, Ky.; NEW YORK, N.Y.

The last drop...

of Goldbeck's Malt Extract is just as
clear and good as the first, but as long
as your patients have a trace of Dys-
pepsia or Anæmia they should be ad-
vised to have a supply of

Goldbeck's Malt Extract

in the house so that the last drop will
not be reached too soon. Many emi-
nent physicians pronounce it the most
reliable Malt Extract made, because
of its small percentage of alcohol and
large amount of Diastase.
