mon in the West may be said to carry
off the palm for wit. A better use to
which it may be put, however, is IN
clothing great truths in homely but
telling fashion which commands atten-
ton and carries conviction. Lincoln
was master of this form of expression,
and the pithy and apt stories which
are attributed to him are apparently

five bottles and am satisfied that the
medicine is a good one.''
A. H. Luchenback, the druggist in

never found anything which did him
any good until he tried bottle of Ath-

cure. 1t gives the best of satisfaction
and does all that is claimed for it.
