On every hand we see - the benefits j or proaiDiwon; out, n you want lo get at the evidence to convert you to the prohibition cause, go to the wives and children of the men who habitually drink liquo.% and take deep into your souls their words. They will melt the hardest heart and convert to the cause of prohibition the firmest believer in the theory that every man has the right to do, in all things, i s he pleases, and that to say a mill shall not traffic in liquor is an abridgement of his liberties; they will convince any one that, while prohibition does not prohibit entirely, in theory and practice it is right. God speed the day when the cause i of prohibition shall prevail over this j entire land! Then may we see and! realize the answer of every God'y j mother's prayer, and know more of what true manhood and womanhood is capable.?Walhalla Courier. Good Cough Medicine For Children. The season for coughs and colds is now at haDd and too much care cannot be used to protect the children. A child is much more likely to contract diptheria or scarlet fever when he has a cold. The quicker you cure his cold the less the risk. Chamberlain's Cough Remedy is the sole reliance of many mothers, and few of those who have tried it are willing to use any other. Mrs. F. F. ; Statelier, of Ripley. W. Ya., says: "I have never used anything other than Chamberlain's Cough Remedy for my children and it has always# given good satisfaction.'' This remedy contains no opium or other narcotic and may be given as confidently to a child as to an adult. For sale by Kaufmann Drug Co. Three Thousand Clerics.

McRaney, Prentiss, Miss., writes: "I was confined to my bed for three months with kidney and bladder trouble, and was treated by two physicians but failed to get relief. No human tongue can tell how I suffered, and I had given up hope of ever getting well until I began taking Foley's Kidney Remedy. After taking two bottles I felt like a new person, and feel it my duty to tell suffering women what Foley's Kidney Remedy did for me." For sale at Derrick's Drug Store. The hardest thing about losing a lot of money on a sure investment is how much you have to give your wife on top of it to preserve her faith in your business judgment. Mothers don't give your baby anything that contains opiates or any other injurious drugs, but insist on having Dr. Thornton's "Easy-Teether", as it is the best medicine on the market for teething babies, and is absolutely harmless as it does not contain any opiates or injurious drugs of any kind.

Pos- r itively, not one weak heart in a hundred is, in itseii, actually diseased. It is almost always a hidden tiny little nerve that really is all at fault. * This obscure nerve?the Cardiac, or Heart Nerve ?simply needs, and must have, more power, more stability, more controlling, more governing strength. "Without that the Heart must continue to fail, and the stomach and kidneys also have these same controlling nerves. , This clearly explains why as a medicine, Dr. Shoop's Restorative has in the past done so much for weak and ailing Hearts. Dr. Shoop first sought the cause of all this painful, palpitating, suffocating heart distress. Dr. Shoop's Restorative?this popular prescription?is alone directed to these weak and wasting nerve centers. It builds; itCstrengthens; it offers real, genuine heart help.
