Charmed by a Rather.

A gentleman riding near Pomona, CAL,
saw a jack rabbit standing perfectly still
few feet away from the road. To see it
run he rode up closer, but the rabbit never
stirred, except to make aconstant nervous,
shuddering movement. The rider looked
closely and saw under bush, about six
feet away, big rattlesnake, with head
erect, slowly crawling toward the rabbit.
The gentleman pushed the rabbit away
with a stick and then killed the snake,
which had ratified angrily at the inter-
ruption. The rabbit seemed Supplied for

Proof Better than Assertion.

With such proof as the following letter
from w. II. Dean, of No. 27s Seventh
street, New York, it is not necessary to
make the bare assertion that ALLcocK's
Porous PLAsTERs cure lumbago. Mr..
Dean says:
Some ten days ago was taken with a
very violent pain in the small Of my back.
It was SO severe, could hardly breathe;
every movement caused great agony. I
finally found out it was lumbago. Being
entirely helpless, friend sent to drug
gist and got two ALLcooK's PoRoUs
PLAsTERs; these were we'll warmed and
applied to my back, one above the other.
In half an hour, to my great delight and
surprise, I found the pain began to abate.
In two hours was able to walk out and
attend to my business, the pain being
almost gone. Next day was all right,
but continued wearing the plasters for a
week.

Our rugged ancestors who pierced the

Latter day society has wandered too far

were not filed with noxious isms. nor their

Is 1t not time TO make change, to return
to the simple vegetable preparations OF our

The proprietors OF Warmers Log Cabin

the market a number Of these pure vegeta-

OF the past. SO that those who want them
need not be without them.
Among these Log Cabin remedies win be

for catarrh. and Log Cabin plasters. All
these remedies are carefully prepared from
recipes which were found, after long inves-
tfgation. to have been those most success
fully used by our grandmothers Of we olden
time. They are the simple, vegetable, eff
cacious remedies of Log Cabin days.
