IF I WERE A FARMER. If I were a farmer I would keep at hand a few reliable medicines for minor ailments that are so serious as to require the attention of a physician, such as chamberlain's Colic and ! Diarrhoea Remedy for bowel complaints. Chamberlains Cough Remedy for i - -1 J 3 _ cougns, coias aria croup. Chamberlain's Liniment fori sprains, bruises and rheumatic pains, i Chamberlain's Tablets for stomach j troubles, bliousness and constipation. This would require an outlay of' only $1.10. By having these artic-1 Ies at hand it would often save the | trouble of a trip to town in the bus- j iest- season or in the night, and would I j enable me to treat slight ilments as i soon as they appear, and thereby j I avoid the more serious diseases that; I so often follow.

Good news bears repeating, and when it is confirmed after a long lapse of time, even if we hesitated to believe it at first hearing, we feel secure in accepting its truth now. The following experience of a Lexington j man is confirmed after three and a half years. Henry C. Hall, grocer, E. Main St. gave the following statement June j 11, 1914: "My back ached all the; time and I felt sore and lame. I j could hardly bend over to wait on! customers. Headaches and dizzy j spells bothered me and my sight was blurred. My kidneys bothered me a! grent deal, too, and the secretions i passed, too often. Finally I bought' Doan's Kidney Pills at the Sawyer j Drug Co. and they relieved me al-j. most at once. I continued using; Doan's until every symptom of kid- ' ney trouble left me." On February 2, 1918, Mr. Hall ad-! ded: "I think as highly of Doan's1 D;n? T a:a ,,.t T xviuncy Jl ma iuua) as jl urn wiicix jl j recommended them nearly four years i ago." ' I Mr. Hall had.
