A Ripe Old Age.

j. H. Holcomb and wife, Belcher.
vile, Texas, have celebrated their fifty
fifth wedding anniversary, and are
still hale and hearty. The secret of
their long life and good health is that
they correct any slight ailment prompt
ly, and in that way avoid serious sick
ness. Like most every one else, they
are more frequently troubled with con-
stipation than any other physical
disorder. To correct this they take
st. Patrick's Pills in preference to any
other, because, as Mr. Holcomb says,
"They are mild pill and, besides,
keep the whole system in good order.
We prize them very highly" For sale

Rev. b. d. Mintz was makinga ar
rangements Saturday for the lumber

church in Perry township, the founda-
ton walls of which have been erected.
We find st. Patrick's Pills to be very
extra and to give splendid satisfaction.
They are now about the only kind
called for.-W. A. Wallace, Oasis, Ia.

We desire to call attention to q
statement printed in another place
relative to farm mortgages in Nebras-
kain refutation of the oft-repeated
assertions by independent newspapers
and stumpers that western farmers
are rapidly being absorbed by the loan
companies. What is true of Nebraska
is true of Iowa, Kansas and Mime
sofa, and of South Dakota in so far as
ner state of development can be COM
pared with that of the older western
states.
