_ABSOLUTELY PURE
A Household Treasure.
D. W. Fuller of Canajoharie, N. Y.,
says that he always keeps Dr. King’s
New Discovery in the house and his
family have always found the very best
results follow its use; that he would
not be without it, if procurable. G. A.
Dykeman, druggist, (jatskill, N. Y., says
that Dr. King's New Discovery is un
doubtedly the best cough remedy; that
he has used it in his family for eight
years, and it has never foiled to do all
that is claimed for it. Why not try a
remedy so long tried and tested. Trial

One reason why some men do not
have better wives is because they are
such poor husbands.
More serious sickness is produced by
allowing tin! bowels to remain in a tor
pid or partially constipated condition
than from any other cause. In many
instances diseases are produced from
which people never wholly recover.
Dyspepsia, piles and nervous disorders
are three of the most common and most
serious. 1 hey are caused by neglect
ing the bowels, and can be prevented
by an occasional dose of St. Patrick's
pills, which always produce a pleasant
• cathartic effect, and not only physic,
but cleanse the whole system and regu
late the liver and bowels. 25 cents per
box, for sale by McConnell & Co.
There are too many people who never
get religion enough to make them look

' To suffering humanity to tell the
great benefit my wife has received from
Parks’ Sure Cure, the truly great liver
and kidney cure. She has been con
stitutionally wrecked for several years.
Tried everything fruitlessly. After a
large amount of persuasion from my
druggist, backed by his guarantee, 1
bought a bottle of Parks’Sure Cure and
the results are more than wonderful.

Hints on Poultry Keeping

For Sore TnROAT.—Saturate a flan
nel bandage with Chamberlain's Pain
Balm and bind it on the throat. It will
cure any ordinary case in one night’s
time. W. B. Fuller, the leading mer
chant at Greencastle, Iowa remarked as
follows: “Chamberlain’s Pain Balm is
a good one. It cured me of a violent
sore throat. I have sold a number of
bottles for rheumatism, and always with
good results." 50 cent bottles for sale

It will not help your own crop any

One Lady Says
She had been troubled for years with
a hacking cough. Had many doctors
and tried fifty cough cures, but grew
worse all the time. She finally tried
Parks’ Cough Syrup and found imme
diate relief. It begins at the bottom
of the disease and is the best cough
remedy on the market Refer any suf
ferer to Mrs. W. J. Fahey, Le Roy, N.
Y. Sold by McMillen.

All Ills That Pills
Are good for are treated more suc
cessfully by Parks’Tea. It is not a
cathartic, no griping or pain, yet moves
the bowels every day. Guaranteed by
McMillen.
Many people mistake Thanksgiving
services for a funeral occasion.
SECOND STAGE OF CATARRH.
Things that Thousands Know by
Bitter Experience.
The second stage of eatarsli is some
times called an old cold. A neglected
cold has settled in the head,nose,throat,
larynx, bronchial tubes, lungs or other
organ of the body. If it settles in the
head it may produce roaring, cracking
in the ears, headache and confusion of
the senses; if in the nose a more or
less abundant discharge, sneezing, noisy
breathing and thickened membranes; if
in the throat, hawking, enlarged tonsils,
sore throat, follicular pharyngitis—the
preachers’ sore throat; if in the larynx,
horseness, weakness of voice, aphonia—
loss of voice; if in the bronchial tubes,
cough, pain in the chest, expectoration
and loss of appetite. Unless something
is done to put a stop to this state of
things the third stage of chronic catarrh
is sure to set in, which is not only hard
to bear but difficult to cure. Pe-ru-na
will cure all cases of catarrh in the
second stage if used without interrup
tion. Directions for use accompany
each bottle, although some cases find
it to their advantage to send to Dr.
Hartman for his direction fora month’s
treatment—sent free.
The Pe-ru-na Drug Manufacturing
Company of Columbus, Ohio, are send
ing free to any address their latest book
on catarrh, entitled “Climatic Diseases”
—a book well worth reading.
Specimen Cases.
T. H. Clifford, New Cassell, Wiscon
sin, was troubled with neuralgia and
rheumatism, his stomach was disorder
ed, his liver was affected to an alarm
ing degree, appetite fell away, and he
was terribly reduced in both health and
strength. Three bottles of Electric
Bitters cured him.
Edward Shepherd, Harrisburg, 111.,
had a running sore on his leg of eight
years’ standing. Used three bottles of
Electric Bitters and seven boxes of
Bucklin’s Arnica salve, and his leg is
sound and well. John Speaker, Cataw
ba, Ohio, had five large fever sores on
his leg, and the doctors said he was in
curable. One box of Bucklin’s Arnica
salve and one bottle of Electric Bitters
cured him entirely. Sold by McMillen.
One reason why there are so many
long faced people in some churches is
because they hardly ever think it is
worth while to praise the Lord except
when they feel like it.
Good Advice.—The editor of the
West Branch, Iowa, Record, gives his
readers some good advice: “We have
used Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy in
our family in cases of sudden colds and
sore throat, and find it all that is now
claimed for it. One bottle or less, if
taken according to directions, will, we
believe, effect a cure in any ordinary
case and save the expense of large doc
tor bills. Especially do we recommend
it in families where the children are
threatened with croup, as it will afford
immediate relief, if taken in time, and
this can always be done if the medicine
is kept on hand, as we are convinced it
should be.” For sale by McConnell.
It is about as wise to sit on the limb
of a tree and saw it off as to worry
about things we can’t help.
Distemper Among Horses
Safely and quickly cured by the use
of Craft’s Distemper and Cough Cure.
It not only cures distemper but when
administered in time prevents its spread
among horses and colts that have been
exposed to the contagion. It is not
expensive and is easily administered.
