Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription
It the best of all medicines for the cure of diseases,
disorder and weaknesses peculiar to women. It is the
only preparation of its kind devised by a regularly gradu
ated physician an experienced and skilled specialist in
' the diseases of women.
It is safe medicine in any condition of tbe system.
THE ONE REMEDY which contains no alcohol
nd no injurioue habit-forming drugs and which
creates no craving; for such stimulants.
THE ONE REMEDY so good that Its makers
re not afraid to print its every ingredient on
each outside bottle wrapper and attest to tbe
truthfulness of the tame under oath.
It is sold by medioine dealers everywhere, and any dealer who hasn t it eaa
get it. Don't take substitute of unknown composition for this medicine o
inown composition. No counterfeit is as good as the genuine and the druggist
who says something else is "just as good as Dr. Pierce's is either nitkeB
r is trying to deceive you for his own sel6sh benefit. Such a man is not to oe
trusted. He is trifling with your most priceless possession-your nealtu
may be your life itself. Se that you let what you ask for. "

The
HARROW WHILE YOU PLOW
Half the Labor Half the Expense Half the Time
THE KRAMER ATTACHMENT not ouly takes the place of all other harrows
but it does the work in a much more satisfactory manner. With it a farmer is
enabled to harrow at the logical time, directly after the plow while the ground is
still soft and moist. The Kramer adds very little draft, the average being less
than 100 pounds even in the heaviest soils. It does not pack the dirt but throws
it loosely together preventing evaporation and prepares a perfect seed bed. It is
a thorough pulverizer. Can be attached to any riding plow.

Druggists Here in Town Say
1 hey Can Supply the In-
gredients to Make
Up the Mixture
Get from any prescription pharma
cist the following :
Fluid Extract Dandelion, one-half
onnce; Compound Kargon, one ounce;
Compound Syrup Sarsaparilla, three
ounces.
Snake well in a bottle ana take a
teaspoonful dose after each meal and

The above is considered the most
certain prescription ever written to
relieve backache, kidney tronble,
weak bladder and all (forms of urin
ary difficulties. This mixture acts
promptly on the eliminative tissnps of
the kidneys, enabling them to filter
aud strain the nrio acid and other
waste matter from the blood which
causes rheumatism.
Some persons who suffer with the
afflictions may not feel inclined to
place much confidence in this simple
mixture, yet those who have tried it
say the results are simply snrprising,
the reliet being effected without tbe
slightest injury to the stomach or
other organs.
Mix some and give it a trial. lt
cortainly comes highly recommended.
It is the prescription of an emiuent
authority whose entire reputation, it
is said, was established by it.
A druggist here at home, when
asked, stated that he could either
supply the ingredients or mix the pre
scription lor our readers, also recom
mends it as harmless.
