A cold, cough or lagrippe can lie 1 nipped m the bud” with a dose or 1 two of Foley’s Honey and Tar. Beware of substitutes. There is nothing so good. Holthouse, Callow A Co. d Nothing so incapacitates a man in the game of life as brooding over past mistakes. Future success depends on letting “the dead past bury its dead” and turning resolutely to problems ■ before you. Have you headache? Do you feel tired? Is your tongue coated? These 1 are premonitions of liver and kidney troubles, and can lie promptly checked by taking Dr. J. H. McLean’s Liver and Kidney Balm. For sale by Holt- ‘ house, Callow & Co. ' d The National Railway News Company has ceased opperations on the Clover Leaf passenger trains. The News company was notified a few weeks ago of an advance in the yearly rental, which they refused to comply with and have withdrawn their agents from all trains. No more of those “butchers” will worry passengers with peanuts, popcorn, books, etc. No one can reasonably hope for good health unless his bowels move once each day. When this is not attended to, disorders of the stomach arise, biliousness, headache, dyspepsia and piles follow. If you wish to avoid these ailments keep your bow els regular by taking Chamberlain’s Stomach and Liver Tablets when re- ; quired. They are so easy to take and ' mild and gentle in effect.

It heals sores without leaving a scar. Beware of counterfeits. Smith Yager A Falk. t s Au exchange says: “When a married woman tells her troubles to any man not her husband, the devil wags his tail.
