DR. HOLMAN'S PAD is no guess work remedy

hodge podge OF some inventors ideas it is the
Original and Only Genuine Curative Pad, the
only remedy that naS an hOneStly-acuuired right
to use the title-Word pad in connection with a
treatment for chronic diseases of the Stomach,
Liver and Spleen.
By recently perfected improvement, effected
by the addition of vegetable ingredients of new
Undiscovered remedial value and abSOrtive
adaptability, DR. HOLMAN has greatly lncreaS-
ed the scope of the Pads usefulness and appre-
ciably augmented its active curative power.
This great improvement gives HOLMAN'S PAD
with its Adjuyants) complete and unfailiDg con-
troll over he most persistant and unyeldIng
forms of Chronic Disease of the Stomach and
Liver as well as Malariil Blood Poisoning.
HoLMAN'S PADS have cured-and are daily
curing-diseases of so many kinds, that the list
is well-nigh interminable. 1t Includes Malarl |
Poison of every type, from Aching Bones and
Low Fever to ChillS and Dunno Ague: Stomach

Stomach, Chronic DarrhGa, Heartburn, &c.,

"HOW COUNTRIFIED."

and look of honest toll
With wealth of heart, and wealth of hand,
brown beauty in his face.

And many passed with stately step, in
broadcloth and in pride.
But murmured, as they 10 ked on him,
"Oh, my how countli6et."

And high up wisdom's mount he stood, It

The managers of some of our Western
railroads ought to run swearing car with
each passenger train. Smokers are well
provided for in the matter of special cars
but as vet no railroad seems to appreciate
the necessity of running swear.
ing cars. The wants OF swear
crs, in this respect are sadly
neglected. There should be n special car in
each train where swearing can be done
without interruption or embarrassment
and all profanity should be limited to that
particular vehicle. Under the present ar.
rangement it is very annoying for swear.
ing passenger TO be compelled to retain
himself and hold in all his ex.
pletives until the end of his Jour.
ney is reached BY having one
special swearing-cur with each train, thi.
highly respectable class of travellers would
be nicely accommodated. Sleeping, eating
smoking and swearing are the four promi
ncnt luxuries of modern railroad
travel. The first three are admirably
provided for on all hrst.class rail.
roads. The last of the four should
no longer he neglected. A good, commo.
dious, strongly-built swearing ear is what
every passenger needs, II should be in
charge ola competent porter, who ut the
end of each trip, might make good thing
