Experience has taught us that the best remedy for the aged is Dr. J. H. McLean’s Strengthening Cordial and Blood Purifier. It strengthens the nerves and builds up a vigorous and healthy appetite. For sale by Holt house, Callow A Co. f The limit of realism has just been reached by a writer of sensational dramas, which has a hen swallow a last will, which turns up in the last act in a hard-boiled egg just in time to foil the yillian.

McLean’s Liver and Kidney Balm will correct irregularities peculiar to their diseases.

A misunderstanding. Misunderstood symptoms of disease lead doctors to treat something else when the kidneys are out of order. Foley’s Kidney Cure will bring you health when other medicines have failed. Holthouse, Callow A Co. f It is stated than Theron P. Keator, formerly editor of the Wabash Plain Dealer and later editor of the Fort Wayne Gazette, has begun the publication ot a periodical known as Town loans and City Bonds, in Chicago. Frequent coughing inflames the lungs. Foley's Honey and Tar stops the coughing and heals the lungs. The ordinary cough medicines which are simply expectorants, will not do this, as they keep the lungs irritated in throwing off the phlegm. Holthouse, Callow A Co. f Low Rate of Interest. Money loaned at five per cent, interest, payable annually or semi annually, at option of borrower, with privilege of partial payments at any interest paying time. No delay in making loans. F. M.

We advise the use of One Minute Cough Cure in all of these difficulties. It is the only harmless remedy that gives immediate results. Children like it.

There is a great deal of unfairness in this world. An Indiana court decides that a man cannot haveadivorce because his wife kisses male acquaintances, but a Wisconsin court holds that a woman can get a divorce be cause her husband smokes bigarettes. A powerful engine cannot be run with a weak boiler, and we cannot keep up the strain of an active life with a weak stomach; neither can we stop the human machine to make repairs. If the stomach cannot digest enough food to keep the body strong, such a preparation as Kodol Dyspepsia Cure should be used. It digests what you eat and it simply can’t help but do you good. Smith, Yager & Falk. ts According to a secret circular, just issued, the United States Rubber Co., the “trust,” has put in effect a cut of IS per cent, on all its manufactured goods. It is declared the independent companies will meet the reduction. Chicago agents of independent companies declare that the reduction was merely another attempt of the trust to force the independent manufacturers out of business or into a “sister” organization. So many people wonder and ask themselves why it is that among so many cough syrups Dr. Marshall’s Lung Syrup is so far superior for coughs. This is not so strange; this medicine was a life time study of Dr. Marshall, and perfected by him while searching for his own health. The! purest drugs are used in its manufac | lure hence the results. The only way we can convince you of the true merit of this medicine is for you to give it a trial. It is guaranteed to give satisfaction. Price 25, 50 and $ 1.00.

This applies to newspapers as well as letters. To say it was the postmaster's fault cuts no figure under the ruling. Bet ter look over your mail before leaving the postoffice. Danger of Colds and LaGrippe. The greatest danger from colds and lagrippe is their resulting in pneumonia. If reasonable care is used, however, and Chamberlain's Cough Remedy taken, all danger will lie avoided. Among the tens of thousands we have yet to learn of a single case having resulted in pneumonia, which shows conclusively that it is a certain preventative of that dan gerous malady. It will cure a cold or an attack of grippe in less time than any other treatment. It is pleasant and safe to take. For sale by Holt house, Callow ft Co. f
