To Save Her Child From frightful disfigurement Mrs. Nannie Gallegc-r. of LaGrange. Ga., applied Bucklen's Arnica Salve to great sores on her head and face, and writes its quick cure exceeded all her hopes. It works wonders in sores, bruises, skin eruptions, cuts burns, scalds and piles. 25c. Cure guaranteed by Page Blackburn, druggist, a Notice to the Public. Dr. G. Thain wants to be understood that he is not a traveling quack and all those that have weak or sore eyes will get just as good a treatment by me as they will in New York or Cincinnati. All those that come to me will save the expense in going to those cities. Dr. Thain comes to the Park hotel from Fort Wayne every Thursday. It is now reported that Buck Taylor alias John Winters, who stole the gold bullion from the Shelbv Smelter Coat Vallejo. California, has confessed and told where he secreted the treasure. which is being recovered from the bottoai of the bay. His motive is said to have been retaliation for the i alleged use by the company of an appliance invented by him. and for* which he had not been compensated. Don't be satisfied with temporary I relief from indigestion. Kotlol Dyspepsia Cure permanently aud completely removes this complaint. It' relieves permanently because it allows the tired stomach perfect rest. Diet-1 tng won’t rest the stomach. Nature i receives supplies from the food we eat. j The sensible way to help the stomach i is to use Kodol Dyspepsia Cure, which ; digests what you eat and can’t help i - but do you good. Smith. Yager Falk. a A dispatch from Boston says that | Admiral Sampson will ire detached > from the Charleston navy yard about September Ist and will be succeeded by Rear Admiral Johnson. Admiral Sampson's poor health and the fact that his presence will be desired be-i fore the Schiey court of inquiry, make this action imperative. There is so much news that even if' it comes by telegraph we overlook some of it. Isn't it a fact that you have seen Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsis advertised several times and have neglected to to trv it? An ounce of Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin is as good as a three week’s vacation. Ask any druggist or anyone who has taken it. Sold by Smith. Yager Falk, a Progress in variation has lieen remarkable with the sweet pea.

The Top Sh.lt, Dr. Marshall’s Lung Svrup has reached the top shelf, there is nothing j that equals this medicine for coughs, i colds, asthma bronchitis or any affection of the throat or lungs.

By all druggists. a Twenty-five dollars a mouth on a farm, says a man who is posted, is a ' great deal better than SSO a month in . a city store. As a general thing at the end of nine months the farmer | has $l5O in cash, three pairs of overI alls and a straw hat, while the latter has two suits of clothes, a pair of bij cycle pants and sl7 in the hole. Yet there are 75 applicants for the latter to one for the former. Their Secret Is Out. All Sadieville. Ky., was curious to learn the cause of the vast improvement in the case of Mrs. S. P. Whittaker. who had for a long time, eni dured untold suffering from a chronic : bronchial trouble. “It’s all due to Dr. King's New Discovery." writes her husband. “It completely cured her and also cured our little grand I daughter of a severe attack of whooping cough.’’ It positively cures coughs, eolds. la grippe, bronchitis, all throat and lung troubles.

Columbia, by Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diaorrhoea Remedy. Dr. Chas. H. L'tter. a prominent , physician of Panama, Columbia, in a I recent letter states: “Last March I had as a patient a young lady sixteen years of age, who had a very bad at tack of dysentery." Everything I prescribed for her proved ineffectual and she was growing worse every hour. Her parents were sure she would die. She had become so weak that she could not turn oyer in bed. What to do at this critical moment was a study for me. but I thought of Chamberlain's Colic. Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy and as a last resort prescribed it. The most wonderful result was affected. Within eight hours she was feeling much better: inside of three days she was upon her feet and at the end of one week was entirely well. For sale by Holthouse.

There is only one way to cure deaf ness. and that is by constitutional remedies. Deafness is raused by an inflamed condition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube.
