A little forethought will also save much expense and valuable time. A prudent and careful man will keep a bottle of Chamberlain’s Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy in the house, the shiftless fellow will wait until necessity compels it and then ruins his best horse going for a doctor and have a big doctor bill to pay, besides ; one pays out 25 cents, the other is out a hundred dollars and then wonders why his neighbor is 'get ting richer while he is getting poorer.
