THE CAMEL'S HEAD.
" Where the camel's head goes his
body follows," flays an Oriental proverb.
It'B the seme way with disease. A small
WW give n u" V
when disease once nas a piace in me
body a large number of ills may touow u.
Tne opening; r uioca
is often found in a R weak"
stomach. When the
stomach is "weak" the
body also becomes weak
ened by lacic oi
nutrition, and
disease attacks
the heart, liver,
lungs, kidneys
and other organs.
Dr. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discov
ery makes the weak
stomach strong. It cures
diseases of the stomach
and other organs of di
gestion and nutrition,
and so enables the body
to resist or throw off other diseases.
Men and women who are sick are in
vited to consult Dr. Pierce, by letter, free,
and so obtain without charge the opinion
of a specialist on their ailments. All cor
respondence strictly confidential. Ad
dress Dr. R. V. Pierce, Buffalo, N. Y.
"Por th past two years I have been a vrrr
tick woman," writes Mrs. Chealey, of 108 Wood
land Ave., Cleveland, Ohio. "I tried medicines
from doctors and to no avail. At last I decided
to try Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery.
When I stsrted I was all run down and had a
very unpleasant taste In my mouth. Was
choked up, and at times H wss very hard for tne
to breathe. I had severe headaches and cutting
paina in my knee joint. Was so weak I could
not attend to my work nor walk up or down
stairs without the assistance of my brother or
some friend. I am now taking; the fourth bottle,
and am happy to say I feel Tike myself again.
I can go up and down stairs and perform my
duties as well as any one. Everything seems to
b brighter, and I can assure you that life is)
worth living.1
Accept no substitute for "Golden Med
ical Discovery.'' There is nothing just
aa good for dyspepsia or debility.
Biliousness is cured by the use of Dr.

Sick stock or poultry should not
eat cheap stock food any more than
sick persons should exict to le
cored by food. When your stock
and poultry are sick jrivtt them rued

taken in time. Secure a SB-cw.t can

Medicine and it will pay for itself ten

give more milk. Hogs train flesh.
And hens lay more eggs. It solves the

The valler is over-run with
toughs, and the papers are full of
hold-ups, house-breaking and potty
thievery. Independence has thus
far escaped, but it is well for people
to take a little precautionary
measures.
The night telephone service will
probably begin with the first of the
month. More than the suUicient
number has been secured, and the
delay is caused by the inability t
secure a suflicient number of
phones to place in subscribers'
houses.
