Smith, Yager & Falk. a Let us frankly say when we do wrong or make a mistake that we did wrong and made a mistake.

What a Tale It Tells. If that mirror of yours shows a wretched sallow complexion, a jaundiced look, moth patches and blotches on the skin, it’s liver trouble; but Dr. King’s New Life Pills regulate the liver, purify the blood, give clear skin, rosy cheeks, rich complexion. Only 25c at Page Blackburn's drug store, a Frenchman has invented a pipe which has a whistle in the stem in order to enable the smoker to summon a cab without taking the pipe out of his mouth. What this country needs is a cigarette with the same attachment in order to enable the smoker to signal an undertaker without disturbing the peace. The laws of health require that the bowels move once each day and one of the penalties for violating this law is piles. Keep your bowels regular by taking a dose of Chamberlain’s Stomach and Liver Tablets when necessary and you will never have that severe punishment inflicted upon you. Price 25 cents.

Good salesjare reported from Vincennes, Indiana, where a farmer got 81,000 for his crop, and at Benton Harbor, Mich., where a fruit grower got $2,500. The apples in this county are very small and will not be verydesirable. Wm.

It is an honest and reliable remedy, a sure cure for all kidney diseases." Holt house. Callow & Co. a Those of our people who usecanned goods and that is about everybody, will find them almost a luxury the coming year. This is of course due to the shortage of small fruits and vanner's products, and the strike may add a small jiercent owing to the scarcity and high price of tin. It altogether will make us appreciate canned goods more than we ever have. Don’t l>e satisfied with temporary relief from indigestion.
