Thirty Years Together. Thirty years of association—think of it. How the merit of a good thing stahds out in that time—or the worthlessness of a bad one.

Many families have used it forty years. It’s the most infallible throat and lung medicine on earth. Unequaled for lagrippe, asthma, hayfever, croup, quinsy or sore lungs. Price 50c, SI,OO.

FROM SUNNY TENNESSEE.

W. E. Noland Writes The Democrat From His New Home. Dickson, Tenn., Feb. 16. Mr. F. E. Babcock. Editor Democrat, Dear Sir: —Enclosed please find P. O. money order for $3.00 on my subscription to The Democrat. We came here from Lee, Ind„ two years ago, and were both raised rot far from Rensselaer. We came here the 10th of March, 1909. We like the country very well. Have raised good crops of corn and potatoes, both sweet and Irish. We have a sweet potato house to cure the sweet potatoes in. They are’ finer now than w’hen dug. Our land was all in woods, but we have cleared about fifteen acres and will get it all in crop this year. This is a good country for a • man with means enough to carry him for a year, until he can raise a crop. After carefully noting the land, will say it is better land than some I know in Indiana held at S7O an acre. It is good clay subsoil, and can be bought for about ten dollars an acre, with some improvements on it. One don’t have to freeze to death in the winter, it is a fine climate. Wheat is as far advanced here now as it is in Indiana the middle of April. Alfalfa is four or five 1 inches high. If only some of our northern friends would come here, that have energy and some capital, it would scon be made an ideal place to live. There are a good many northern people here now, but we peed a lot more. The southern people are very friendly but the country needs more people to settle it up.. / The Democrat is a very Welcome letter from home each week that never fails. With best wishes to all back home, I am yours respeetfuHv, W. E. NOLAND. To Break in New Shoes Always Use Allen’s Foot-Ease, the antiseptic powder.
