Aids Nature > great success of Dr. Pieroe's Gotdefi Medical Discovery in curing weak stomachs, wasted bodies, weak WJhfl lungs, and obstinate and lingering coughs, is based on the recognition of the fundamental truth that “Golden Medical Discovery” supplies Nature with body-build- ■ ing, tissue-repairing, muscle-making materials, in con- ■ dented and concentrated form. With this help Nature >4 supplies the necessary strength to the stomach to digest • 1 food, build up the body and thereby throw off lingering ‘ Obarinata nonghs. The “Discovery” re-establishes the digestive and nutritive organs in sound health, purifies and enriches the blood, and nourishes ths nerves—in | short establishes sound vigorous health.

CASTOR IA For Infants and Children. The Kind You Have Always Bought Bears the /ir S/fy . Signature of Captain M. B. Stokes, of the 10th Infantry, which is stationed at Fort Benjamin Harrison, arrived here yesterday evening to be on hand for the inspection of the local company this evening. He was to have inspected the Monticello company last evening but on account of the smallpox situation there it was necessary to postpone the inspection, which will now be held on the 23rd of this month. Captain Stokes has been in the army since he was 18 years of age, having served as a militiaman, then as a cadet at West Point, later as a Major of South Carolina troops during the Spanish-American war and after the close of the war he returned to the regular army in which he retained his commission. For two years before the 10th Infantry was returned to the states and stationed at Fort Benjamin Harrison, it was stationed in Alaska, where they have winter for eight months out of the year and where the temperature reached at times as low as 80 degrees below zero. Uncle Sam, however, took good care of his soldiers and provided them with the warmest clothing, big fur coats and caps and warm boots and comfortable quarters. Captain Stokes enjoyed the Alaska service, notwithstanding the hardships, but he considers Fort Harrison the ideal army post. The inspection of the local company will take place at the armory at 8:30 o’clock this evening, the property Inspection having taken place during the afternoon.

They wear so much longer that the slight advance over unidentified cheaply-built clothes doesn’t at all cover the saving they bring. One XZ£A9. OO D suit will survive more boyhandling than two average suits. Every pair of X TRAGO 9D knee-pants is lined all through. This not only means extra endurance, but also extra fullness and grace to a degree not to be found in clothes that are not XTRAGOOp. The G. E. Murray Co. Rensselaer, Indiana

Meyers, of Chicago, the new owner es the K. of f. building, was in Rensselaer yesterday looking after the building and meeting his tenants. It is quite probable that he will dispose of the building either by sale or by trade, and that it will not be a great while until it has another owner. , t Perry Gwin, son of Mr. and Mrs. J. C. Gwin, returned yesterday afternoon from Austin, Texas, where he has been attending the Texas state university. He will remain at home for a time, but is undecided as to what he will do.

' I B. F. FendJg Sells the Great Remedy That Cured Mrs. Karberg. f Here is a very stable yet wholly sincere statement of a Michigan woman, who was cured by using HyomeiX. the no cure no pay remedy for catarrh, asthma; hay fever, croup, coughs and colds. “A bad case of catarrh was cured for me' J by the use of Hyomel. The trouble affected my head, nose and eyes, and was very annoying and disagreeable, and the cur/, from the use of Hyomel, was very gratifying. Hyomei has from me a strong recommend and indorsement.”—Mrs. E. Karberg, 213 Kingsley St., Ann Arbor, Mich., Nov. 16, 1908. Thousands of just such letters are | in existence, and thousands more would be but for the desire to avoid publicity. If you have catarrh, bestir yourself, and drive it out of your system. Kill the germs. You can do that easily if you use Hyomel (pronounced Hlgh-o-me). It is a dry, antiseptic and very pleasant air, that when inhaled, quiekly relieves all forms of catarrhal inflammation, stops snuffles, hawking and. blowing.
