. Robbed The Crave
A startling1 incident, of which Mr
John Oliver of Philadelphia, was
the'subje U, is narrated by him as
follows:"I was in a most dreadful
condition. My skin was almost yellow,
eyes sunken, tongue routed.
* 4 ? ? ? 1 l_ .1 ? 1
pain conunnauy in o;ick ami sums,
no appetite?gradually .growing
weaker day by day. Three physicians
had given me up. Fortunately,
a friend advise/1 trying 'Electric
Bitters;'and to my great jey ami
surprise, the first bottle made a derided
improvement. I continued
their use for three weeks, and am
now a Well man. I know they saved
my life, and robbed the grave of
another victim." No one should
fail to try them. Only 50 cents per
bottle at any Drag Store.
According to the UigginsviTe.
Mo., Advance, the "gentlemen who
manipulate bucksaws contemplate
raising the price of sawing wood
on account of the increased cost ol
bacon rind.*'
It is continuous, consistent,
courageous, intelligent adver'ising
in I he best newspapers, that ai:?nrl
infallible hriii"< iron 1
returns.
A now baking preparat ion is coming
and samples will be distributed free.
It is called ''Leaven" and the claim is
made that it is half as strong again as
the b >-t baking powder and more reliable
than soda because the yellow
spots and soda taste so common with
soda biscuits are avoided.
If this l>e true ''Leaven" will have a
most cordial welcome. The firm who
are advertising it are a well known
Iuiikp nf tlio liiolio^t rerml :i! i(in :?nrl
this fact makes it certain that the
poods will justify all they claim for
them.
Success to "Leaven'' seems assured
in advance.
liawaiian servants think their
employers are pulling dfi airs if
they are not allowed Jo address
them by their Christian names. The
very lact that only a few
merchants are wise enough to ad1
kertise in dul.J seasons makes it ali
the more profitable for those who

Two Lives Saved.
Mrs. Phoebe Thomas, Junction City
J!l, was told by her doctors she had
consumption and that there was
ao hope for Jier, but two bottles .of
Dr. King's New Discovery com
pietely cured - ner and she says it
saved he,r lifp. Mr. Thus Eggers,
139 Florida St., San Francisco suffered
from a. dreadful cold approaching
Consumption, tried with>ut
result everything el^e, then
bought one bottle of Dr. King's
New ])is overv and in two .weeks
was cured, lie is naturally thankful.
It is such results, of which
these are samples, that prove the
wonderful efficacy of this medicine
in coughs and colds. Free- trial
