I felt an improvement at once and after a few bottles am sound and well.” Kodol is the only preparation which exactly reproduces the natural digestive juices and consequently is the only one which digests any good food and cures any form of stomach trouble.

Farmers in the south part of the state are out about $2500 because of their plaeing confidence in a grocery shark. The man’s name was W. G. McKay and his victims number 200. His plan was to organize a farmers’ trading association, the members of which were to receive 15 cents per dozen for eggs and 20 cents a pound for butter in cash all summer, at a time when a legitimate market pays only 6 to 8 cents for eggs cents for butter. A membership fee of $lO was collected from each farmer. If he didn’t have the money his note was taken and sold at the banks. From thiß source McKay got about $2500. All produce brought him was takbnat an agreed price, but paid for in due bills, redeemable in cash or goods, and the produce sold for cash. Farmers who had unbounded faith in McKay, and were jubilant to receive such high prices for produce, now are mourning in sackcloth and ashes.

Blood. We live by our blood, and on it We thrive or starve, as our blood is rich or poor. There is nothing else to live on or by. When strength is full and spirits high, we are being re* freshed, bone muscle and brain, in body and mind, with continual flow of rich blood. This is health. When weak, in low spirits, no cheer, no spring, when rest is not rest and sleep is not sleep, we are starved; our blood is poor; there is little nutriment in it. Back of the blood, is food, to keep the blood rich. When it fails, take Scott’s Emulsion of Cod Liver Oil. It sets the whole body going again—man woman and child. If you have not tried it, send for free sample, its agreeable taste will surprise you. SCOTT & BOWNR, Chemists 409-415 Pearl Street, New York. 50c. and $1.00; all druggists.
