Figures Which Shout The newspaper is supreme as n advertising medium; in 'both its fields local and general. There is approximately $300,000,000 expendeded annually for newspaper advertising. -: Of this sum, between $50,000,000 and $55,000,000 represents space purchased by general advertisers. This record is not approached by any competing medium, f ' There are sound reasons for the supremacy of the newspaper. It is the one medium that reaches every consumer of everything, everywhere, every day. It offers economy and exactness, and more nearly eliminates waste than any other medium. Manufacturers are invited to write to the Bureau of Advertising, American Newspaper Publishers Association, World Building, New York, for a copy of the booklet, "The Dealer and His Friends."

In order for any one to obtain the full measure of pleasure and success from life it is necessary that he or she should be possessed of health in mind and body. It is certain that the greatest thing in all the world is health; without it a man can scarcely do anything worth doing; he can acplish little that is really worth accomplishing. Attention to health then should take the place of every other object. That which is necessary to secure it should receive consideration in preference to eyerything else. Vin Hepatica, the new herbal system tonic, is bringing health to thousands and is gaining a big following here, where grateful people are daily testifying to is merits and recommending it to their

mends. The following endorsement recently received from Mr. A. J. Eyler, a travel

ing salesman, residing at 22 Sycamore street, Dayton, speaks for itself. He

says:

"I suffered from stomach trouble

for some weeks. After eating I had severe attacks of Indigestion, and felt distressed. I tried numerous remedies, but failed to get relief. I got a bottle of Vin Hepatica, which had been recommended to me by a friend, and after taking a few doses I noticed a big improvement in my condition. My stomach pains gradually disappeared; I ceased to suffer from indigestion, and began to feel like my natural self. I continued taking Vin Hepatica for several days, and am now perfectly well and have had no further trouble. I consider Vin Hepatica a splendid medicine, and highly recommend It to any one suffering as I did." The object of Vin Hepatica Is to relieve the stomach of its burden, thereby giving it an opportunity to regain its normal strength. Vin Hepatica tones up, strengthens and revitalizes the entire . system ; restores the lost power of digestion, acts- on the liver and kidneys and banishes rheumatism from the blood. Vin Hepatica is now being demonstrated at Clem Thistlethwaite's drug store, 914 Main street, where a representative will meet all callers and courteously answer all inquiries. Adv.
