Henry Wilson, the postmaster at
Welsbton, Florida aays he cured a case
of diarrhosa of long standing In six
hours, wltb one small bottle of Cham
berlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhea
Remedy. What a pleasant surprise
that must have been to tbs sufferer.
Such cures are not unusual with this
remedy. Iu many Instances ouly one
or two doses are required to give per
manent relief. It can always be de .en
ded upon. When reduced with water
It Is oleasaut to take. For aale by Alex

After counting hla money until bo
was tired a grocer of Salem Just for un
experiment weighed some of his green
backs and found It took Just twenty-
two oue-dollar bills to weigh as much
a silver dollar.
W. A. McOuIre, a well known ( itlzeu
of McKey, Ohio, Is of the opinion that
there Is nothing na good for children
troubled wltb colds or croup as Cham
berlain' Cough Remedy. He bus used
it In bis family for several years with
the best results and always keeps a
bottle of It lu the 'house. After having
la grippe he was himself troubled with
a se vere cough. He used other remedies
without benefit aud then conaluded to
try the children's medicine aud to his
lelight it soon effected a permanent
cure. 50 cent bottles ror sale by Alexander-Cooper

For a pain In the chest there is no
thing so good as a piece of llannol dam-
dened with Chamberlain's Pain Balm
and bound over the seat of pain. It
affords prompt and permanent relief
aud if used iu time will often prevent
a cold from resulting in pueumonla
