bered In the home of F. N. Tacket, of
Alliance, Ky., as a year of blood;
which flowed so copiously from Mr,
Tacket's lungs that death' seemed very
near. He writes; "Severe bleeding
from the lungs and a frightful cough had
brought me at death's door, when 1 be
gan taking Dr. King's New Discovery
forConsumption, with the astonishing
result that after taking four bottles 1 was
completely restored and as time has
proven permanently cured." Guarante
ed for Sore Lungs, Coughs and Golds,
at W. P. McMillan's drug store. Price
50c and $1.00. Trial ottle free.
CHAFF FROM THE STRAW STACK
Too many pretty girls have fresh
paint signs on their faces.
You can easily fill the public eye,
if you only have the "dust".
After man came woman, and she
has been after him ever since.
After a man and a woman get mar
ried, they quit buggy riding.
It often happens that a duck of a
man makes a goose of a husband. .
The ideal wife and the ideal hus
band are two of a kind that never
make a pair.
A Michigan paper states that "Mrs.
G. M. Brown is at home looking after
the grip." It might be well to in
vestigate 'and see who is taking care
of Mr. Brown's suitcase in the mean
time. , . . ., ...
School ma'am's who have fellars
had better look a "leedle out." Miss
Downend, a teacher of music in the
Mansfield, Ohio, schools was recently
let out of a job and her salary withheld
because she had a beaux. She sued
the board for her pay and was beaten
in the courts, the jury holding that she
had neglected her duties on account
of her beaux. Bet that jury was made
up of a lot of old moss-backs with
whiskers a foot long, who, never sipped
the nectar from the lips of some pretty
school ma'am, nor any one else'e lips
for that matter. They simply : doa't
knew what life is,

It Is Dangmoim to Neglect a Cold, ..
How often do we hear it remarked:
"It's only a cold," and a few days
later learn that the man is on his back
with pneumonia. This . is of such
common occurrence that a cold, how
ever slight, shbuld not be disregarded.
Ceamberlain's Cough Remedy counter
abts any tendency of a cold to result in
pneumoniB, and has gained its great
popularity and extensive sale by its
prompt cures of this most common
ailment. It always cures and is pleas
ant to take. For sale by W P. Mc
Millan.
