Against Patent Medicines.
"Collier's Weekly had a shocking
drawing a skull, from which on one
side flows poison, on the other crude
alcohol into bottles of patent medi
cines, distributing death among the
poor classes. We often called the at
tention of our readers to the fact, that
neither poison nor alcohol should be
contained in a family remedy. When
ever it becomes necessary to overcome
a slight indisposition, loss of appetite
and bodily weakness, Triner's Ameri
can Elixir of Bitter Wine should be
employed. It is a true household rem
edy, made of pure wine and bitter
herbs, which has a decided effect in all
maladies of the stomach, in nervous
ness, in poorly nourished blood. In
dorsed by leading physicians who have
thoroughly tested it, indorsed by thou
sands of families who have befltn cure
with it. Guaranteed not to contain
any poison, any drug, any addition of
alcohol. At drug stores. Jos.Triner,

Quality vs. Quantity.
Hard muscles and strong body do not
depend on the quantity of food you
eat, but on its perfect digestion and
proper assimilation. When you take
Kodol Dyspepsia Cure your system
gets all the nouishment out of all the
food you eat. It digests what you eat
regardless of the condition of the
stomach and conveys the nutrient
properties to the blood and tissues.
This builds up and strengthens the
entire system, overcomes and cures
indigestion, dyspepsia, belching, sour
stomach, etc. Sold by F. G. Fricke & i
Co. and Gering & Co.
A Live Two-Headed Calf.
Edward Mitchell, manager of the
W.J. Davenport fruit farm just south
east of Glenwood, reports the birth
yesterday of a genuine two-headed
calf. It is a little brown fellow, and
is a mixture of Ilolstein and Jersey.
On account of the great weight of its
head the calf is unable to stand on its
feet and receive nourishment in the
customary way, but every effort will
be made to have it live. It will be fed
warm milk fiom a bottle until it gains
strength enough to stand up. The
two headsare joined together near the
eyes and through the center. There

four eyes, two foreheads, but only two
ears. The two inside eyes are not per

tour the country himself. The calf
should be on exhibition in Glenwood at
the next market day, June 17. Glen
