DR., w. l.. Paine has taken down his
sign in this village and it now hangs over
his office door at Union Village. We were

who are too honest to keep patient 6 ck
when he could be brought upon his feet.
The people of Union Village may feel safe
in putting themselves under his treatment
for he thoroughly understands his business.

who make great show in the world, but
if you are sick and need his services YOU
will soon learn that there is true value in
him that one would scarce aote by seeing
him pass upon the street.
