During the hot weather of the sum
mer month the fl rat unnatural loose

immediate attention, w as to check
the disease before it becomes serious.
All that is necessary is a few doses of
Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Di

castor oil lo cleanse the system. Rev.
M. O. Btockland, pastor of the hrst M.
E. church, Little Falls, Minn., writes:
"We have used Chamberlain's Colic,
Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy for
several years aud find it a very val
uable remedy, efjiecially for summer
disorders in children." Sold by P. M.
Kirkland, the druggist.
Children In Pain
never cry as do children who are suf
fering from hunger. Such is Ibe cause
of all baby's who cry and are treated
for sickness, when tbey really are suf
fering from hunger. This is caused
from their food not being assimilated
but devoured by worms. A few doees
of White's Cream Vermifuge will cause
them to cease crying aud begin to
thrive at once. Give it a trial. Sold
by D. G. Dove.
