Making Life Safer.
Everywhere life is being more
safe through the work of Dr. King’s
New Life Pills in Constipation.
Biliousness, Dyspepsia, Indiges
tion, Liver troubles, Kidney Dis
eases and Bowel Disorders. They’re
easy, but sure, and perfectly build
up the health. 25c. at Chas. I. Clough.
A Traveling Salesman.
H. F. Beers, 617-7th Ave., Peoria,
Ill., writes: "I have been troubled
for some time with kidney trouble,
so severely at times I could scarcely
carry my grips. After using one
bottle of Foley’s Kidney Pills I have
been entirely relieved, and cheerfully
recommend them to all.” Foley’s
Kidney Pills are healing and an
tiseptic and will restore health and
strength.—C. I. Clough, Tillamook.
Came Near Choking to Death.
A little boy, the son of Chris. D.
Peterson, a well know resident of
Jacksonville, Iowa, had a sudden
and violent attack of croup. Much
thick stringy phlegm came up after
giving Chamberlain's Cough Rem
edy. Mr. Peterson says: ’’I think he
would have choked to death had we
not given him thia remedy.” For
