There 1 3 will be a currency law enacted, prob- t ably within a tew days and at farthest 1 1 within a few weeks, and while no one ' 1 claims it will be perfect, it is sure to * be an improvement over present condi-! ( tions and the foundation for a splendid i < control of the currency. Even such , 1 standpat papers as Leslie are now fa-' ' voring such a law and are urging th republicans to join the democrats and < progressives in passing a law that will; | be a credit to the nation. 1 — ENDING NOVEMBER 29.

a Muua—reara -j- rmranara the good bargains here, or tell us of him and we will mail him a list or cal! and see him. GOOD REASONS ROR READING THE ADS. Many times real estate is sold and a neighbor says '‘That was cheap, if I hud known it I would have paid more for it,” and the same was advertised for weeks. If you would only toad the ads carefully, think for instance, how many farms can be bought for SIOO per acre or less—yet here is a farm of 120 acres in our list we can sell you for $75 per acre, good buildings, and 4 miles of Decatur. How many farms in this radius can you buy for this money? NONE. Then this must be the cheapest and best bargain. But then you say there are so many for sale. This is always the case. Then again you say there is but little selling now in the farm line; a GOOD reason for buying. If the country was full of buyers, which It will be next year, "you could not buy near so cheap or on such easy terms." Farm and city property in Decatur and Adams county were never more I staple than now and the fellow who tried to sell a tew years ago and failed was fortunate in this failure for the same has since advanced in price from $5 to sls per acre. Many who have left Adams county have return ed to invest and now see the folly of going away, while all who have stuck see their wealth increase by steady and substantial growth, with good revenue, while the values of lands increase. Now is the time to buy while there is plenty to select from at reasonable prices. - o HOW TO PREVENT The Prevailing Contagious Disease* from Getting in Your Home. By keeping yourself and children’s blood in good condition; build up your nerves. Keep your stomach, bowels, liver and kidneys in proper condition, preparing your stomach to digest what you eat. 49 General Tonic was prepared by Dr. Hensley 60 years ago to meet all these condi tions. Its virtue and value has never been equaled for the regulation of these conditions. By giving your children a spoonful morning and evening you will prepare them to slush off those irresistable attacks of diseases, and will preven. you from i having those attacks of headache.‘ backache, dizriness, dull heavy feel ing. dyspepsia, fluctuation of gas, nervousness. 49 General Tonic makes you feelj like a new person and saves you a ; doctor bill.* 49 Tonic is sold by all. druggists. u&aw CHICHESTER S PILLS W •».
