The Lexington Dispatch. Wednesday, June 22 1904. An 'Unknown Angel. Sbe walks umiotied in the street ; The casual eye Sees nothing in her fair or sweet, The world goes by Unconscious that an angel's feet Are passing nigh. She little has of beauty's wealth; Truth will allow Only her priceless youth and health. Her broad, white brow; Yet grows she 011 the heart by stealth, 1 scarce know how. She does a thousand kindly things That no one knows; "? ' i- - *1 : A loving woman s neair sne i To human woes; And to her face the sunlight clings Where'er she goes. And so she walks her quiet way with that content That only comes to sinless days And Innocent ; A life devoid of fame or praise. Yet nobly spent. Startling Evidence. Fresh testimony in great quantity is constantly coming in, declaring Dr. Bang's JSTew Discovery for Consumption Coughs and Colds to be unequaled. A Tecent expression from T. J.

Unhealthy Kidneys Make Impure Blood, j i j All the blood in your body passes through { your kidneys once every three minutes. fThe kidneys are your j blood purifiers, they filter out the waste or ! impurities in the blood. I If they are sick or out ; of order, they fail to do their work. Pains, aches and rheumatism come from excess of uric acid in the blocd, cue to neglected kidney trouble.

Chamberlain's Stomach and Liver Tablets Better Than a Doctor's Prescription. Mr. J. W. Turner, of Truhart, Ya., says that Chamberlain's Stomach and Liver Tablets have done him more good I than anything he could get from the doctor.
