RHEUMATISM
' Shouldn't Exist
It is a pity to suffer with any
kind of rheumatism or gout on
earth. That Trunk's Prescription
has been beneficial in the treat
ment of rheumatism, gout, lum
bago, sciatica and neuritis is a
well known fact, for Instance, a
prominent Pacific Coast Druggist
says: From reports we nave naa
on Trunk 8 Prescription we are
confident of its merits In recom
mending it." This prescription
does- not contain any mercury,
salicylate soda, oil wintergreen
nor narcotics, but combines in
gredients of potency designed to
throw off any kind of rheumatism
in the human body. , Trunk's
Prescription does not depress the
heart nor rain the stomach, and
no dieting is required to make it
effective. Superior Liver Medicine
and Uric Acid Solvent; a splendid
prescription. v Sold- and 1 recom

A COAL SHORTAGE OF 100,000,000
TONS IN EUROPE
$20.00 Per Ton For American Coal
in London
But you can still obtain genuine Peerless Coal at only
$15.00 per ton! And for the present we also have a
plentiful supply of other good coals at reasonable prices.
, However, vast quantities of American coal are being
shipped to relieve the shortage in Europe.
Wouldn't it be a good idea to make sure of your own
supply before winter weather with its increased demand
and its usual interference with railroad shipments?
We'll leave the answer to that question up to you
with merely the suggestion that our telephone number is
