I The only reason we are constantly talking about stoves is that we are so confident that we have the best stove that we are willing to use space in the paper in order to get you to recognize that fact. When we make the statement that our stoves give 42 pe" cent more heat Dthan any other, that means something to you doesn’t it? Backed by a guar- H antee of a reliable manufacturer and Ourselves don’t you think it’s about || O time you investigated this offer? DWe can’t afford to make statements in order to sell. We must deliver the H goods or go out of business. Any one can see that we must be right in our |j Q statements. O m We do not want to misrepresent anything-that's not in our line. But we M do want it understood that our stove in practical tests have outclassed any |j other make that was entered against it. We have all kinds of stoves, a hard coal heater, a soft coal heater, laundry stoves, extra size, and in fact a stove to fill every want. We’re glad to demonstrate it. Come in and see for yourself.

I At this season of the year it is important that in this county which bears the reputation of having the 'greatest number of miles of stone roads of any county in the United I States, according to area, that we take every possible step to keep them in good condition. There are laws governing this matter and they should be enforced. Every person should see that they do not violate the law and that the other fellow doesn’t either. .

One of Adams county’s farmers, whose wife has been sick with stem ach, kidney and liver trouble for two years, after using one bottle of 49 General Tonic, says that that she has gained more under the one bottle of 49 than any other treatment she has taken, and Tuesday the 7th, bought six bottles of 49 at the Holthouse drug stare. L. J. Bumgarner, railroad agent at Cheshire, Ohio, writes the Leah Med' cine company, under date of November 4th: "I eannot express my appre ciation of your kindness in sendii _ me your 49 General Tonic. My wi'. has taken it since March and our <1 tor woEtld not believe that she could improve as she has. She has gained seventeen pounds and is feeling fine, but is hungry all the time. Life is worth living with 49 in the house. 4: has become a by-word to us. We use it for everything—colds, coughs, pains —anything that ails us. We run for 49 Tonic. Mr, Vickers wants three bottles, and I am sending you ss.ihi so please send me six bottles by ex press.” The above is a copy of Mr. Bumgarners letter. His wife has been sick for five years, and 49 Tonic made her a well woman in six months which her doctor failed to do in five years All druggists handle 49 Tonic. 264t6 o— NOTICE.
