Cherry
Pectoral
A PREACHER'S EXPERIENCE.
"Three months ago, I took a vio
lent cold which resulted in an attack
of acute bronchitis. I put myself
under medical treatment, and at the
nd of two months was no better.
I found it very difficult to preach,
and concluded to try Ayer's Cherry
Pectoral. The first bottle gave me
great relief ; the second, which I am
now taking, has relieved me almost
entirely of all unpleasant symptoms,
and I feel sure that one or two bot
tles more will effect a permanent
cure. To all ministers suffering from
throat troubles, I recommend Ayer's
Cherry Pectoral." E. M. Beawley,

by the people of Dufur. . Mr. Merrill ap
preciates these evidences of . respect and
regard and desires to thank tne people

Assist Nature
a little now and then, with a gentle,
cleansing laxative, thereby removing of
fending matter from the stomach and
bowels, toning up and invigorating the
liver 'and quickening its tardy action,
and you thereby remove the cause of a
multitude of distressing diseases, such as
headaches, indigestion, or dyspepsia,
biliousness, pimples, blotches, eruptions,
boils, constipation, piles, fistulas and
maladies too numerous to mention.
If people would pay more attention to
properly regulating the action of their
bowels, they would "have, less fre
quent occasion to call for their doctor's
services to subdue attacks of dangerous
diseases.
That, of all known agents to accom
plish this purpose, Dr. Pierce's Pleasant
Pellets are unequaled, is proven by the
fact that once, used, they are always in
favor. Their secondary effect is to keep
the bowels open and regular, not to fur
ther constipate, as is the case with other
pills. Hence, their great popularity,
with sufferers from habitual constipation,
piles and indigestion.
A free sample of the " Pellets," (4 to 7
doses) on trial, is mailed to any address,
post-paid, on receipt of name and address
on postal card.

of Chas. M. Gutfeld of Reedley, Fresno

edy referred to and want their customers
to know what a splended medicine it is :
"It is with pleasure 1 tell you that by
one day's use, of Chamberlain's Cough
remedy I was relieved of a very bad
cold. My head was completely stopped
up and I could not sleep at night. I Can
recommend this remedy." A cold nearly
always starts in the head and afterwards
extends to the throat and lungs. By
using this Remedy freely as soon as the
cold has been contracted it will cure the
cold at once and prevent it from extend
ing to the lungs.

urers of other sarsaparillas sought by
every means to obtain a showing of their
goods, buff they were all turned away
under the application of the rule for
bidding the entry of patent medicines
and nostrums. The decision of the

"Ayer's Sareaparilla Is not a patent
medicine. It does not belong to the

one dreaded disease that science ' has

that is Catarrh. Hall's Catarrh Cure is
the only positive Cure known to the

Cure is taken internally, acting directly
upon the blood, and mucous surfaces of
