’Twould Spoil This Story to Tell It in
the Headlines.
To use an eighteenth centuary
phrase, this is an “o’er true tale.”
Having happened in a small Virginia
town in the winter of 1902, it is a
story very much of the present. Up
to a short time ago Mrs. John E. Har
mon, of Melfa Station, Va., had no
personal knowledge of the rare cura
tive properties of Chamberlain’s
Cough Remedy. “Last January,” she
says, “my baby took a dreadful cold
and at one time I feared she would
have pneumonia, but one of my neigh
bors told me how this remedy had
cured her little boy and I began giving
it to my baby at once and it soon
cured her. I heartily thank the
manufacturers of Chamberlain’s Cough
Remedy for placing so great a cure
within my reach. I cannot recom
mend it too highly or say too much in
its favor. I hope all who read this
will try it and be convinced as 1 was.”
For sale by P. C. Corrigan.
Portland Oregonian: The spectacle
of the people of Russia, led by the
czar, czarina and commander-in-chief
of the army, prostrate at the confes
sional, in the hope of securing divine
favor In war, is one that at this dis
tance is more ludicrous than solemn. A
partial God, one who can be propitiat
ed by offerings, or swayed by prayer
and adoration—the traditional “God
of battles”—is out of date among peo
ple who do their own thinking.
Wakeful Children.
For a long time the two year old
child of Mr. P. L. McPherson, 59 N.
Tenth St., Harrisburg, Pa., would
sleep but two or three hours in tire
early part of the night, which made
it very hard for her parents. Her
mother concluded that the child had
stomach trouble, and gave her half of
one of Chamberlain’s Stomach and
Liver Tablets, which quieted her
stomach and she slept the whole night
through. Two boxes of these Tablets
have effected a permanent cure and
she is now well and strong. For sale
by P. C. Corrigan.
The readers of the Ord Quiz were
last week startled by the announce
ment in glaring black type. “Dance
at the Methodist church next Friday
evening.” Following this in small
type the reader was informed that
Enslow would speak on the dance and
its injuries. Some of the preachers
understand advertising much better
than some of the merchants.
So Sweet and Pleasing in Taste!
Mrs. C. Peterson, 625 Lake St., To
peka, Kan., speaking of Ballard’s
Horehound Syrup, says: “It lias never
failed to give entire satisfaction, and
of all cough remedies, it is my favorite,
and I must confess to my many friends
that it will do, and has done, what is
claimed for it—to speedily cure a
cough or a cold; and it is so sweet and
so pleasing in taste.”25c, 50c and $1.00
bottle at P. C. Corrigan.
A fire at Lynch last Friday resulted
in the following losses: T. J. Coldweii,
barn building, $1,400; insurance $500.
S. W. Lightner, lumber yard, $13,000;
insurance $5,000. G. A. Orr, horses,
buggies, etc., $800; no insurance.
Nineteen head of horses belonging to
Mr. Orr were burned to death.
Cures Sciatic Rheumatism.
Mrs. A. E. Simpson, 509 Craig St.,
Knoxville, Tenn., whites, June 10th,
1899: “I have been trying the baths
of Hot Springs, Ark., for sciatic
rheumatism, but I get more relief
from Ballard’s Snow Liniment than
any medicine or anything I have ever
tried. Enclosed find postoflice order
for $1.00. Send me a large bottle by
Southern Express.” For sale by P.

Colds Are Dangerous.
How often you hear it remarked:
“It’sonly acold,”and a few days later
learn that the man is on his back witli
pneumonia. This is of sucli common
Dccurrence that a cold, however slight,
should not be disregarded. Chamber
lain’s Cough Remedy counteracts any
tendency toward pneumonia. It
ilways cures and is pleasant to take.

Climatic Cures.
The influence of climatic conditions
in the cure of consumption is very
much overdrawn. The poor patient,
and the rich patient, too, can do much
better at home by proper attention to
food digestion, and a regular use of
Herman Syrup. Free expectoration in
the morning is made certain by Ger
man Syrup, so is a good night’s rest
and the absence of that weakening
cough and debilitation night sweat.
Restless nights and the exhaustion
due to coughing, the greatest danger
and dread of the consumptive, can be
prevented or stopped by taking Ger
man Syrup liberally and regularly.
Should you be able to go to a warmer
clime, you will find that of the thous
ands of consumptives there, the few
who are benefited and regain strength
arc those who use German Syrup.
Trial bottles, 25c; regular size, 75c.
