Last summer my t little danghter liad the dysentery in i its worst form. We thought she would J i die. I tried everything I could think 1" of, but nothing seemed to do her a1 y J s good. I saw by an advertisement in < our paper that Chamberlain's Colic, i Cholera and Diarrhoea Kernedy was e highly recommended and sent and got ? a bottle at once. It proved to be one ' t of the very best medicines we ever I had in the house. It saved my little p daughter's life. I am anxious for every | mother to know what an excellent i medicine it is. Had I known it at first < it would have saved me a great deal i of anxiety and mv little daughter < much suffering.? Yours truly, Mrs. Geo. F. Burdick, Liberty, K. I. For sale by J. F, llaclrey A C?.

The 16th day of August, 1899, vill be long remembered by those eho attended the Woodman Piclic given in honor of Cedar camp, 'Jo. 79, at what is known as the steward place. A more beau iful grove would be hard to find vitli the many natural advantages han this one,?plenty of good \va er and shade for both man and >east.
