Because of its large denomination it was easily traced to Toledo, whence it came with a shipment of money. “Both my children were taken with whooping cough,” writes Mrs. O. E.

No. 167 Kelley Block, Frankfort, Ind. The French press takes a gloomy view of the industrial situation and concludes that the U. S. will inevitably dominate South America. If this is not ably done through undue governmental interference, but as the natural result of our industrial superiority, we are unable to see anything gloomy in the situation.

In eases of cough or croup give the little one One Minute Cough Cure. Then rest easy and have no fear. The child will be all right in a little while. It never fails. Pleasant to take, always safe, sure and almost instaneous in effect. Smith, Yager & Falk, a Nearness of kin is no warrant of friendship. If you have plenty of money your friends flock around you like ducks after June bugs; but if you are poor you may stand on one foot in the lee of some old chimney, like a sparrow on a housetop, and none of them will offer to share with you a crumb. What most people want is something mild and gentle, when in need of a physic. Chamberlain’s Stomach and Liver Tablets fill the bill to a dot. They are easy to take and pleasant in effect. For sale by Holthouse, Callow & Co. a Poor people should bear in mind that this is the time of year to provide for the winter. One thing is certain about this next winter of ours, and that is: All the necessaries, such as flour, potatoes, pork, beans, tomatoes, etc., will cost a great deal more than last winter; some of them twice as much. High living,intemperance,exposure and many other things bring on Bright’s disease. Foley's Kidney Cure will prevent Bright's disease and all other kidney and bladder disorders if taken in time. Be sure to take Foley’s. Holthouse. Callow <k Co. a A lawyer in a court room may call a man a liar, a scoundrel, a villian or a thief, and no one makes any com plaint when court adjourns. If a newspaper prints such reflections on a man’s character there is a libel suit or a dead editor. This is owing to the fact that the people lielieve what the editor says what the lawyer says cuts no figure. 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 vou. Price 25 cents. For sale by Holthouse, Callow & Co. a A cure for cholera infantum. “Last May,” save Mrs. Curtis Baker, of Bookwaiter, Ohio, "an infant child of our neighbor’s was suffering from cholera infantum. The doctor had given up all hopes of lecovery. 1 took a bottle of Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy to the | house, telling them I felt sure it would do good if used according to directions. In two days' time the child had fully recovered, and is now (nearly a year since) a vigorous, healthy girl. I have recommended this Remedy frequently and have never known it to tail in any single instance.” For sale by Holthouse, Callow & Co. »

Allport, Johnstown, Pa., says: “Our little girl almost strang led to death with croup. The doctors said she couldn’t live but she was instantly relieved by One Minute Cough Cure. Smith, Yager & Falk. a A pointer to girls: Dancing makes a girl’s feet large, ice cream produces freckles; hanging on the front gate produces rheumatism: chewing gum distorts the mouth; playing the piano distorts the beauty of the hands; washing dishes causes “chaps” to come —to propose. Eruptions, cuts, burns, scalds and sores of all kinds quickly healed bv DeWitt’s Witch Hazel Salve. Certain cure for piles. Beware of counterfeits. Be sure you get the original DeWitt’s. Smith, Yager & Falk, a An agreement was signed at San Francisco on Tuesday for a twenty round fight between Champion Jafhes J. Jeffries and Gus Ruhlin, to come off before the club offering the largest purse. A forfeit of $2,500 was put up and George Seiler agreed upon as the referee. “Some solks git stuck mighty easy,” remarked Farmer Clovertop, looking up from his copy of the Pudunk CountyJClarion. “For all they think they're so all-fired smart, the city folks is having artificial ice shoved off on ’em. I’d like to see anybody fool me on ice.” Have you seen it? We keep Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Popsiu in plain view, but if you don’t happen to see it, why ask for it. The manufacturers guarntee it to cure dyspepsia and all forms of stomach troubles. Sold by Smith, Yager A Falk. a Truant officers have receiveti orders from headquarters regarding the work for the coming year. The orders states that last year’s pupils who were not enrolled or irregular in attendance must be sought and measures taken toward making them comply with the spirit of the law. Every child must be compelled to go to school. The president of the American Federation of Labor, Union 8,215, savs: “lam usingyourDr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin myself and in my family, and find it does lots of good. Yours truly, Geo. C. Campbell, Clinton, lowa. Sold by Smith, Yager & Falk. a Patronize the man who invites you to come to his store. You do not at tend a reception without an invitation.- You should not intrude on the privacy of a storekeeper without an invitation. Buy of the live business man who not only invites you, but posts you on what is popular in his line of goods. 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 An experienced merchant has told beginners how to make trade when business is slack, and he has concluded with this advice: “Don’t sit down and wait for the coming of a busier season, but hunt up good things which you can offer at bargain prices, and tell about them in your newspaper. It will keep you busy to serve customers you will draw.” Would have cost him his life. Oscar Bowman, Lebanon. Ky.. writes: “I have been using Foley’s Kidney Cure and take great pleasure in stating it gave me a permanent cure of Kidney disease which certainly would have cost me my life.” Take none but Foley’s. Holthouse, Callow & Co. a Warren is elated over its prospects for an electric line to Huntington. All the business now transacted is by stage which runs daily between the two points. The prospective line is the one under construction between Ft. Wayne and Huntington and it is now partially built. Warren will have to put up up a SIO,OOO bridge over the Wabash to get it. Do you have rheumatic pains, loss of appetite, hot dry skin, indigestion, loss of energy, puffiness under the eyes, swelling of the feet and irregular action of the bowels? These troubles come from faulty action of the liver and kidneys. Dr. J. H. McLean's Liver and Kidney Balm will cure them. For sale by Holthouse, Callow & Co. a The Kansas City Journal tells of a Boonville, Mo., man who has reconstructed an ordinary thermometer upon a peculiar principle of his own devising. He replaced the usual markings upon the instrument, “zero ' “water freezes,’ “summer heat” and “blood heat" with such legends as “heavy overcoat,” “light overcoat, ’ “gray cassimere” and “shirt sleeves.” Theowner of the thermometer consults it every few hours and invariably follows its directions.
