A Common Sense Rem edv,

In the matter of curatives what you
want is something that will do it's work
while you continue to do yours-a rem
edy that will give you no Inconvenience
nor interfere with your business. Such
a remedy is Allcock's Porous Plasters.
These plasters are not an experiment;
they have been in use for over thirty
years, and their value has been attested
by the highest medical authorities, as
we'll as by testimonials from those who
have used them. They require no change
OF diet and are not affected by wet or
cold. Their action does not interfere
with labor or business you can toll and
yet be cured while hard at work. They
are so pure that the youngest, the Oldest,
the most delicate person of either sex
a use them with great benefit. Be-
ware of limitations, and do not be de.
ceived by Misrepresentation. Ask for
Allcock's, and let no solicitation or OK.
PLANTATION induce you to accept a substi-
tute.

Mr.. Ole Anderson has made extensive

The readers of this paper will be
pleased to learn that there is at least one
dreaded disease that science has been
able to cure in all it's stages and that is
catarrh. Halls Catarrh Cure is the
only positive cure now known to the
medical fraternity. Catarrh being a
constitutional disease, requires q con-

Cure is taken internally, acting directly
upon the blood and mucous surfaces of

foundation of the disease, and giving
the patient strength by building up the

The hobo season is now fairly under
way, and the numerous specimens of the
kind are now vending their several
ways both east and west. 1t is an
acknowledged fact that the class this
year is tougher and more desperate than
ever before seen, and especially in rail.
road circles is their effect felt. Hardly
a train passes through but a half dozen
or so may be seen on trucks, b%rakebeams
or blind baggage. They are persistent,
too, and accept no reverses as final. Out

them boarded the diner and deliberately
ate their way through everything in

Of their persistency, and it is probable,
if the thing keeps up much longer. there
will be some hobos the worse for wear.
