FREE TRADE.

The reduction of internal revenue and the taking of of revenue stamps from Proprietary Medicines, no doubt has largely benefited the con sumers, as well as relieving the bur den of home manufacturers. Espec. ially IS this the case with GREENS AUGUST FLOWER and BoscHEE's GER MAN SYRUP, as the reduction of thir- ty six cents per dozen, has been ad ded to increase the size of the bottles con tainIng these remedies, thereby giving one fifth more medicine Tn the 75 cent size. The AUGUsr Flow ER for Dyspepsia and Liver Com plaint. and the GERMAN SYRUP for Cough and Lung troubles, have per haps, the largest sale of any medi- cines in the world. The advantage of increased size of the bottles will be greatly appreciated by the sick and afflicted, in every town and vii. lage in civilized countries. Sample bottles for 10 cents remain the same size.

CuRE FOR PILES.

Piles are frequently preceded by q sense of weight in the back, loins and lower part of the abdomen, causing the patient to suppose he had some affec- tion of the Kidneys or ncighboring or gans. At times, symptoms of indiges- ton are present, as flatulency, uneasi- ness of the stomach, etc. A moisture. like precipitation, producing very disagreeablc itching, after getting warm, is q very common attendant. Blind, Bleeding and Itching Piles yield at once to the application of Dr Bo- sanko's Pile Remedy, which acts direct iy upon the part affected, absorbing the Tumors, allaying the intense itching, and effecting . permanent cure. Price. 50 cents. Address, The Dr. Bosanko Medicine Co.,, Piqua, Ohio. Sold by J. N. Harkey & Bro, and w. s. Hin ton. Atkins. May lily.

Mother and Son.

IIOtnOI ttuu oOns
 About two years ago cancerous sore made it's appearance on my face, and as my ancestors on both sides had been afflicted with cancers, was filled with gravest apprehen- slons. The future was overcast with dark shadows, and in groping about in search of relief my attention was called to Swift's Specific (S. S. S.) I concluded at once to testlt, and did so with the happiest results. The sore disappeared, and my face is well.
 My mother had cancer on the nose, and it was eating away that organ with alarming rapidity. l sent her one dozen bottles of Swift's Specific, which she used according to directions. The sore soon ceased to eat, and all inflammation disap peared, and the great hole made by the cancer closed up and healed over completely. My mother is now we'll, aud has been for over year.

Miracles ot Christ
nY HoxEn LOGAN sAxIxsos.

He came to our world to give It light,
 Dispeii the dark and gloomy night That hung around the being man,
 Closed from his view the better land. In his being mild and kind,
 Goodness and meekness, all divine. Rose spontaneous from his heart
 For perfection reigned in every part. In him live, my being have,
 From him all Joys and pleasures come, A living miracle Of Christ am,
 Without his grace am undone. Christ it was who healed the lame.
 Bid them rejoice that he had conn, Tn their weakness made them strongs
 And so they sing his giories on. Christ it was who cured the blind.
 And they reJoiced the world to see, But the leveiiest object was-divine,
 Him who cares for you and me. Christ 1t was who raised the dead,
 From the dark. and dreaded somS. And they to life again were wed
 That he might rid death of It's gloom. Christ 1t is our sims forgives.
 Bids us repent, and happy live. And Of all miracles which recall,
 this the greatest of them all. Thcn let us live and Ill each day,
 With actions good ere life be passed, That we may walk the narrow way, That leads to heaven at last.

As the season advances. the pains and aches by which rheumatism makes itself known. are experienced alter every exposure. It is not claimed that Hoods Sarsapariila is a specific for rheumatism--we doubt ifthere is, or can be, such remedy. But the thousands benefited by Hoods Sarsaparllla, warrant Us in urging others who suffer from rheu- matism to take it, before the first keen twinge.

 Ut has been demonstrated this season more clearly than ever before that it pays to raise the best grade of cotton, in fact it will not pay at all to raise the common or inferior grades.
