How to prevent pneumonia. You are perhaps aware that pneumonia always results from a cold or from an attack of lagrippe. During the epidemic of lagrippe a few years ago when so many cases resulted in pneumonia. it was observed that the attack was never followed by that disease when Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy was used. It counteracts any tendency of a cold or lagrippe to result in that dangerous disease. It is the best remedy in the world forbad colds and lagrippe. Every bottle warranted. For sale bv Holthouse.

The inventive genius of the present day is employed in making housework easier for the women.

The world grows easier ever} - day for the women who like to gad about. “Isn't it queer? - ’ says an exchange, “that when farmers wish to retirethey | move to town and when town laborers wish to rest they move to the country. I A farmer has poor health, so he moves to town to rest up and get where he will not be bothered with hard work. The merchant or banker when his | health fails will go to the country with his tent and pitch it 'neath some shady tree where he can inhale the country air and rusticate in enjoyment of a perpetual picnic." Lagrippe successfully treated. “I have just recovered from the second attack of lagrippe this year.” says Mr. Jas. A. Jones, publisher of the Leader. Mexia, Texas. “In the latter case I used Chaml>erlain’s Cough Remedy, and I think with considerable success, only lreing in lied a little over two days against ten days for the former attack. The second attack I am satisfied would have been equally as bad as the first but for the use of this remedy as I had to go to tied in about six hours after being .struck’ with it, while in the first case I was able to attend to business about two days before getting ‘down.’ ” For sale by Holthouse.

Among the many well known people who will be seen enlisted in the ranks of “The Late Mr. Early” company when that organization plays its engagement at Basse's opera house, Friday, January 6, is Miss Rose Sutherland, the clever little dancing soubrette, who played the roll of “Flirt” in the original production of Chas. E. Hoyt’s “A Trip to Chinatown” companv. Miss Sutherland’s success in this production was of so emphatic a kind that Mr. Hoyt afterwards chose tmr to create the soubrette roles for the New York run of two of his other famous productions, namely, “A Contented Woman” and “A Black Sheep.” After remaining with the Hoyt farces for five seasons Miss Sutherland was last season engaged to create a lead img role in one of Chas. E. Blaney’s farces in which she duplicated her former great successes. In “The Lite Mr. Early” this talented artist is said to have the most congenial role she has yet created and to have scons! the hit of her life. The dancing specialty which she does in the third act of the comedy has elicited no end of praise.

This is one of the most Remarkable True Statement on Record.—lt is made by an Indianian. He has spent SSOO in patent medicines and doctor bills without being cured. One dollar’s worth of Morrow’s Kid-ne-oids done the work. Many Decatur people are interested in the cure of Mr. Josephus Osbourn, who lives at 925 Jackson street Columbus, Ind. Listen to the repetition of his story and perhaps you will find you have had similar experience: “For the past three years I have been afflicted with kidney complaint. My symptoms were as follows: Fearful kidney backache, urinary disturbances and nervousness from which I was unable to sleep xvell at night, which produced a general broken down condition in my health. My condition was so serious that I would lose two weeks at a time from work. I grew so weak that I felt unable to perform a day’s work. I have taken several kinds of kidney pills and all the various kinds of kidney remedies I ever heard or read about without being benefited in the least. I have been treated by doctors in this city and by specialists for kidney and bladder trouble without getting any relief. A short time ago I read about Morrow’s Kid-ne-oids and my wife advised me to give them a trial. I got a sample package and used them, being greatly relieved in three days’time. Up to date I have taken less than a dollar's worth of Kid-ne-oids and I consider myself cured. During the continuation of my illness I have spent fully SSOO in doctor bills and medicine which amounted to nothing This makes quite a striking comparison, which is worth your time and consideration. My wife declares that I appear like a new man since my cure: that I am more pleasant and agreeable and not so nervous and irritable. You may also understand that our hearts are filled with thankfulness to be relieved from this great burden, which made our home miserable and unhappy." To confirm the statement of Mr. Osbourn we want you to write him about Kid-ne-oids. enclosing stamp. He is a grateful man and will be glad to write you how much he was Irenefited by their use. Do not confound Morrow's Kid-ne-oids with any kind of kidnev pills; they are not pills at all but Yellow Tablets and are put up in wooden Iroxes which sell at 50 cents a box, aud are never sold in bulk. Morrow’s Liver-Lax will cure constipation and seiis at 25 cents a Ik>x, Boili of these remedies are for saie by all first-class druggists and at Holthouse, Callow A Co's drug store, or will Ire mailed by the manufacturers on receipt of price, John Morrow A Co., Chemists, Springfield, Ohio.
