Surprising Cure of Stomach Trouble, When you hare trouble with your stom ach or chroaic constipation, don't imagine that your case is beyond help jiwt because your doctor fails to give you relief. Mrs. G. Stengle, Plninfield, N. J., writes, "For over a month pnst I have been troubled with my stomach. Everything I ate upset it ter ribly. One of Chamberlain's advertising booklets came to me. After reading a few of the letters from people who had been cured by Chamberlain's Tablets, I decided to try them. I have taken nearly three-fourths of a package of them and can now eat almost everything that I want." For sale by all dealers. Advert iHement. For sale by F. E. Holsten. Newsy Letter From Rev. G. C. Jeffers Former Alliance Minister Now Liv ing at Ovid, N. Y., Still In terested in Alliance and Her People CAUGHT SOME FINE FISH The many Alliance people who remember the good work done by Rev. G. C. Jeffers while pastor 0 th; taptlst church here, will be glad to :read the following newsy letter received on Saturday: Ovid, N. Y., Aug. 28, R. F. D. 2. Alliance Herald, Alliance, Nebr. Gentlemen: I am very glad to state that the Herald has found its way to my .address here at Ovid. No paper comes to my ihome that brings more interest with it than does the Herald. I read the news to know what your people are doing. I read the editorials to know how the pub lic pulse Is beating. I read the ads to know if the business men are still doing business. 1 mark with special pleasure the improvements that are going forward. Strange as 3t may seem, I note a peculiar pride In all these. It argues to me that my love for Alliance and her peo ple has In no wise abated from what it was five or six years a,a;o. I want to see her churches built up, her schools advanced, and her com mercial interests developed. So long as the city looks to one end, the preatest good to the greatest num ber, she wilt grow and prosper. A word in regard to myself. . 1 was called to the pastorate of the Ovid Center church last Vpril, and immediately entered upon my dut ies. It is a country parish, but in a very wealthy community.
