Joseph V. Dory, of Warsaw, H., was
troubled with rheumatism and tried a
number of different remedies, but says
none of them seemed to do him any
good but finally he got hold ofone that
speedily cured him. He was much
pleased with it, and felt sure that others
similarly afflicted would like to know
what the remedy was that cured him
He states for the benefit of the public
that it is called Chamberlain's Pain
Balm. 1t is for sale here at 80 cents per
bottle by our druggists Nevin & Toman.

Man has ENLARGED his dominion

Man has enlarged his dominion
over matter by various discoveries
and improvements IN the present
century, yet, strange to say, no i'm
provement has been made IN the is
sue and distribution of currency
for ages. Without the mutilated
greenback of America, or it's illegal
tender. National Bank bills could
be called an Improvement, which
may be doubted.
improvements and progress means
life, stagnntlou, death. Shall we
consent to remain IN this stagnant
pool of financial corruption that
has remained unmoveh for ages
and cursed the world with its meas
matte etfluvia of "money panIcs, !"
business depresslons, suffering and
misery beyond computing Yet
''money panic" and all evils nrsing
from money panic would be effectu
ally prevented in all countries by
the passage Of this bill into IL law.
This cannot be refuted, nor won't
be disputed, by anyone acquainted
with the merits of this bill.
