Ninety-nine of every one hundred diseases that children have are due to disorders of the 6tomach, and these disorders are all caused by indigestion. Kodol Dyspepsia Cure is just as good for children as it is for adults. Children thrive on it. It keeps their little stomachs sweet and encourages their growth and development. Mrs. Henry Carter, 702 Central St., Nashville, Tenn., says: "My little boy is now three years old and has been suffering from indigestion ever since he was born. I have had the best doctors in Nashville, but failed- to do him any good. After using one bottle of Kodol he is a well baby. I recommend it to all suffers." Kodol digests what j'ou eat and makes the stomach sweet. Sold by Belt & Cherringlon. Have You Seen The Sea Serpent?

THE VOICE, The Leading Temperance Paper, Sonndi the Call to a New Crusade in the Following Article. ANOTHER HE. VI) ON THE HYDRA." " It is time attention was drawn to a form of alcoholic traffic that seems to have been overlooked by those winged in the crusade against the rum power. If, ts is believed and taught, alcohol it most dangerous when it fights in ambush, if it is most to be dreaded when it finds its first entrance to the system in the pleasant sauces and dishes of the home, then the form of alcoholic traffic in ques tion is doubly dangerous, for it comes in the guise of medicine and attacks a sys tem prepared by weakness to easily sur render to the ass:mlt. In many PATENT MEDICINES which are largely consumed throughout the country, by all classes of people, there is a percentage of alcohol which puts them on a level with beer, rum and whisky as intoxicants. It is the small ness only of the dose presented which prevents a prompt recognition of the in toxicating effects of these so-called medi cines by those who use them. " It is safe to affirm that they are MEDICINES IN NAME ONI.Y. Their chief value lies in their alcoholic eflect as a stimulant. In fact, those who know, attribute the benefits ascribed to this class of medicines wholly to the stimulative effect of the alcohol they contain. They are used largely by per sons not in the habit of drinking liquors, and the little dose taken three or four time a day is as stimulating to these people as his regular " finger" of " bit ters ' is to ttie regular iiquor-aruiKer, WHAT CAN BE DONE? "What ought to be done at least is to compel every paient-meaicine manufact urer to put on the wrapper of his bottle the quantity of alcohol it contains. That would at least leave people to exercise their own judgments. More than that, no paper truly interested in temjwrance reform should print the advertisement of any alcoholic medicine. It should be the duty of every temperance organiza tion and branch in the country to look into this question, agitate it, and deal with the facts just as earnestly and as honestly as other facts have been dealt with." Appreciating the gravity of the issue raised by the strong statement of facts made in the foregoing article, we wish to call general attention to the fact that Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery and Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription contain NO ALCOHOI., NO WHISKY, NO INTOXI CANT OP ANY KIND. These medicines are equally free from opium and other narcotics. They are in the strictest meaning of the words, temperance medicines. Of no other medicine, put up especially for woman's use can it be truthfully a ffirmed, as of Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription, that it contains neither alcohol nor opium or other narcotic in any form. While the negative features of Doctor Pierce's medicines may ouly interest some of the readers of this article, the positive features of these medicines must be of interest to every one. The great value of "Golden Medical Discovery" in the cure of diseased or deranged con ditions of the stomach and digestive and nutritive organs is testified to by tens of thousands who have found health and healing in this great remedy. The " Dis covery" increases the action of the blood making glands, and by curing the dis eases which corrupt and cripple the stomach and digestive and nutritive or gans, it enables a full and pure supply of blood to be sent to every part of the oody. WOMEN KNOW ITS WORTH. Women who are always appreciative of benefits, have been especially appre ciative of the benefits following the use of Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription. Its wonderful cures of irregularities, inflam mations, ulcerations and female troubles, have caused women to name it, "that God-tend to women." It is entitled to wear tie " blue ribbon " of merit u well as the blue ribbon of temperance. Women as Well as Men Are Made Miserable by Kidney Trouble. Kidney trouble preys upon the mfnd, dis courages and lessens ambition; beauty, vigor and cheerfulness soon disappear when the kid neys are out of order or diseased. Kidney trouble has become so prevalent that It is not uncommon fnr chiM to be born af(MtfrA urfth ujaotr lrii4. Mf-T n If h rhllri tirln- ta v, -,,- j- . ates too often, If the urine scalds the flesh or if, when the child reaches an age when It should be able to control the passage, it Is yet afflicted with bed-wetting, depend upon it, the cause of the difficulty is kidney trouble, and the first step should be towards the treatment of these Important organs. This unpleasant trouble Is due to a diseased condition oftthe kidneys and bladder and not to a habit as most people suppose. .Women as well as men are made mis erable with kidney and bladder trouble, and both need the same great remedy. The mild and the Immediate effect of Swamp-Root is soon realized. It is sold by druggists, in fifty cent and one dollar sizes. You may have a sample bottle by mail free, also pamphlet tell Roma ot Swauip-Root. ing all about it, Including many of the thousands of testimonial letters received from sufferers cured. In writing Dr. Kilmer & Co., BInghamton, N. Y., be sure and mention this paper. Don't make any mistake, but remember the name, Swamp-Root, Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, and the address, Bingham ton, N. Y., on every bottle. Notice of Final Settlement. Notice is hereby given that the undersigned administrator, with the will annexed of the es tate of K. L.

Like most other people, I tritd to make myself believe the trouble was not in the lungs. I called it stomach trouble or ner vous disorder, but I kept coughing, spitting and wasting away right along. I lost in weight, falling from 140 to 115 pounds. Somehow or other, I got hold of Ack er's English Remedy for Throat and Lung Troubles, and after taking it according to directions, I was as well as any man in New York State. I was healthier and stronger than b. fore I took the cold which came so near killing me. I now weigh 150 pounds ten pounds more than ever. After recovering, I applied for a life insurance policy. When the doctor began examining me, I was afraid he would discover that my lungs had once been affected, but he didn't. I passed all right, and was pronounced in a first-class condition. If that isn't proof of the most posi tive kind that Acker's English Remedy is a great medicine. I don't know what you call proof. I give it my warmest endorsement. My address is given above. Anyone who wishes may write me personally about my case." Sold at 25c, 50c. and $1 a bottle, throughout the United States and Canada; and in England, at is. 2d., 2s. 3d., 4s, 6d.
