pply Sloan's Freely for lumbago.
Your attacks of Lumbago are not
nearly so hopeless as they seem. You
can relieve them almost instantly by
a simple application of Sloan's Lini

is a form of rheumatism, and yields
perfectly to Sloan's which penetrates
quickly all in through the sore, tender
muscles, limbers up the back and
makes it- feel fine, (let a bottle of
Sloan's Liniment for 2 cents of any
druggist and have it in the house
against colds, sore and swollen joints,
rheumatism, neuralgia, sciatica and
ike ailments. Your money back if not
satifiefid, but it goes give almost in
stant relief.

Avoid Sedative Cough Medicines.
If you want to contribute directly
to the occurrence of capillary
bronchitis and peneumonia use cough
medicines that contain codine, morp
hine, heroin and other sedatives when
you have a cough or cold. An ex
pectorant like Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy is what is needed. That
cleans out the culture beds or breed
ing places for the germs of pneum
onia and other germ diseases. That is
why pneumonia never Jesuits from a
cold when Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy is used. It has a world's wide
reputation for its cures. It contains
no morphine or other sedative. For

DEATH RELIEVES
A VERY UNFORTU
NATE CITIZEN
Frank Leacch, Former Train Dis
patcher. Passes Away After an
Illness of Fourteen Months.
Friday, October 9, at 11:30 a. m.
Frank. Leach passed to the great be
yond. after a lingering illness of
about fourteen months, his death oc
curring at the Clark hotel in this
village, where he had been taken care
of since his illness began. One sad
feature of this death was the fact
that no relative wac present to
show sympathy during his last hours,
but C. W. Clark and wife made the
necessary arrangements for the bur
ial. The hearse, accompanied by
friends, conveyed the remains to the
cemetery west of town, where inter
ment was made in a private lot se
cured for the purpose, brief services
being conducted at the- grave by Rev.
W. A. Taylor. The deceased was
given a respectable burial in ac
cordance with orders from relatives
in Chicago, who paid the expense.
Frank Leach was a familiar figure
in this village, having come here
about six years ago from Omaha,
where he had formerly been employed
as an operator and train dispatcher,
at which he was an xpert who had
few equals. He was 03 years of age,
and his native state was Michigan,
where he resided and followed his
profession for many years, having a
wife and daughter now in that state.
About eight years ago family trou
bles caused estrangement and since
then he and his wife had not lived to
gether. This trouble caused him to
forsake his former temperate habits
and resulted in the loss of good po

gest cost of the Ford and the smallest
cost of any other car because of the after-expense.
The Ford is the one car

the "cost-ts-keep" that counts.

sitions in railroad work. It was then
that he came here, and at that time
it was understood that his unccle, A.
B. Leach, and two nephews of Chi
cago, contributed to his support. On
June 23, 1913, while living alone in
a small building in the west part of
town, Frank was found helpless on
the floor, an attack of paralysis hav
ing rendered him heipless. He was
taken to Clark's hotel, where medical
aid was furnished, also a nurse, for a
few weeks, and for ;he past ten
months Mr. Clark has taken care of
him, the expenses being paid by the
Chicago relatives.
It was indeed a sad ending for a
man of the natural talent and educa
tion possessed by Frank Leach sad
because in his sickness and suffering
for many long months none of his
relatives saw fit to come to his bed
side or to show him respect after his
death. It may be true that Frank
Leach erred in some ways, and it may
be true that he had lost the respect
of the relatives, but we hold to the
theory that death erases many mis
deeds, and we think that the wealthy
banker relatives in Chicago and the
wife and daughter a-e open to crit
icism in this case. Frank Leach was
a man with many good traits, and his
faults could have been overlooked af
ter death, without any humiliation to
those relatives.

A Marvelous Escape.
"My little boy had a marvelous
escape," writes P. F. Bastians of
Prince Albert, Cape of Good Hope.
It occurred in the middle of the
night. He got a very severe attack
of croup. As luck would have it, I had
a large bottle of Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy in the house. After
following the directions for an hour
and twenty minutes he was through
all danger." Sold by ali dealers.
