Would you like to know the
secret of the wonderful cures
effected by Nature's "great remedy
Acid Iron Mineral? The explanation
is a simple one. It is
King of all inflammation. Put
it on a sore and in a few hours
the inflammation is gone. Put
it on a bleeding wound and it
stops the flow of blood and
quickly cures the wound. Put j
.it on any kind of 'an abrasion,
wound, cut or other inflammation
of the body and the result is
always the same?inflammation'
driven out and a quick cure.
Now do you not know that nine
tenths of all disease is of an inflammatory
character? The inflammation
is internal and so
beyond your vision. Nevertheless
it is there and since A. I. M.
will cure imflammation quckly
on an external sore, it will do
precisely the same work internally
where bidden from view.
The poor raw stomach of the
y , dyspeptic is cured just as rapidly
as a cut would be cured
on his hand. The ulcerated
throat, or inflamed bowels of a
person afflicted with diseases of
the throat, or with piles, etc.,
are just as amenable to A-I-M
as if they were external and
could be cured before the eye.

bottle. Sold by druggists.

The Siejel-Meyer-Dainty Co.
In lyceum attractions, as in
other things, the merit of a performance
may be guaged, as a
rule, by the price, mat a Hundred
dollar show is far better
than a tifty dollar one may al-'
most be set down as axiomatic.
The next number presented by
the Kingstree lyceum is a $115
attraction, "The Siegel-MyerDainty
Co." Each member of
this company is an artist of national
repute and competent critics
say that there is no lyceum
attraction on the road more popular
than the Siegel-Uyer-DuintyCo.
This splendid exhibit ion
will be here on Tuesday, December
6. Secure seats early and
give these talented artists the
rousing reception they deserve.
