A Wise Deacon.

“ Deacon Wilder, I want you to tell me how you kept your«plf and family well the past season, when all the rest of us have been sick so much and have had the doctors visiting us so often.” “Bro. Taylor, the answer is very easy. I used Hop Bitters in time; kept my family well and saved the doctors’ bills. Three dollars’ worth of it kept us well and able to work all lhe time. I’ll warrant it has cost you and the neighbors ono to two hundred dollars apiece to keep side the same time.” “ Deacon, Pll use your medicine hereafter.”

He is greatest who desires the greatest good to mankind.
