WHAT IS 
HEADACHE? 
In nine eases out of ten tlie source of headache 
is not in tile brain but in the stomach. Indigestion 
is tlie most frequent cause. The digestive organs 
being disordered, they derange the action of the 
liver, tlie bowels, the kidneys, and the nerves, 
and, the whole secretive and excretive machinery 
being as it were thrown out of gear, the brain 
suffers. Restore the natural tone of the stomach 
and bowels with a few doses of Takkant’s 
Seltzkii Arr.niKNT. and headache arising from 
this cause is at once arrested. This delightful 
preparation is the best remedy for chronic and 
periodical headache at present known, and abso¬ 
lutely invaluable as a stomachic and gentle 
cathartic. SOLD BY ALL DRUGGISTS.

OUR PATENT SHEET MUSIC bears no resemblance to and MUST NOT be con¬ 
founded with the so-called MUSICAL CHARTS; 0:1 the contrary, it is an entirely new Sight Method

PROFESSOR Hermann ETZLEE, who, after numerous attempts, has at last succeeded in perfecting 
a system by which any one, however obtuse or ignorant of the rudiments of music, can at once play 
Ballads, Hymns and Accompaniments, and in a very short time render with ease Operatic 
and Dance Music without the aid of a teacher. 
The SIMPLICITY esd LUCIDITY ©f the INSTRUCTIONS which accompany 
it render this PATENT SHEET I 'USIC adaptable to tlie use of people of all ages and classes.

tions for this method, and Sin j-iccpaof Popular Music (in Patent Form), embracing Songs, Mel¬ 
odies, Accompar imento and Words, sent, prepaid, on receipt of One Dollar. 
Society owes a debt of gratitude to Professor Etzler, the result of whose efforts will promote musical 
knowledge, and enable oldand young, rich and poor alike to acquire the most delightful of all accomplish¬ 
ments at a mere nominal expense. 
This method is destined to supersede all other methods owing to its 
wonderful simplicity.
