ward to with great interest by

the Burlington immigration agent,
thoroughly believes in dairying as
being a profitable thing for the
farmer, and he Is giving his sup

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.

CAUGHT SOME FINE FISH
The many Alliance people who
remember the good work done by
Rev. G. C. Jeffers while pastor 0

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

a very wealthy community. The

miles from us. Had a delightful time
filching, with the result that we had
all the fish to eat we cared for.
Will not attempt to tell yo:i the
size of some of the fish I caught

caught some fine fish.
In connection with the parsonage
here, there are three acres of land,
and I have it all planted. I wish
I lived near the Herald offica; the

good visit with us. Our latch-string
is out for any of you.
Success to the work of the Her

people of Alliance.
