MINISTER'S TELL IT.
We have Our Pastors Assurance
 of These Facts.
The Word of Ministers Taken us the
 Strongest Proof.
Persons Believe the Pastor Before Anyone
 Else in the World.


 There are no words so strong as those spoken of by the true minister of the gos- pei One knows and feels instinchvely that such words come from the heart and are prompted only by earnest purpose of doing good to humanity.
 We do not wonder, therefore, at the great influence with the public of the strong and ringing words of praise which the eminent divine. Rev c. D. k. Meacham, gives the most wonderful of medicines pr Greene's Nervura blood and nerve remedy. When he was run down in health, weak in nerves, prostrated in strength, and with his blood badly impoverished by an old scrofula humor, and his nervous system was greatly impaired, Dr Greenes medicine gave him wonderful relief.
 At the present time my health is as good as at any time in my life, and my confidence in Dr Greene's remedy Is con stantly increasing.
 REV c. D, R. MAGICIAN.
 Pastor Baptist church, Townshead, Vt"
 Doubtless the same heartfelt sympathy and great desire to see the sick made well inspired the Rev Dr J. W. Walker, Presid ing Elder of the Methodist Church, Fort Dodge Ia to also recommend Dr Greene's $ Ncrvura blood aud nerve remedy to the sick and suffering. He, too, has used 1t himself: he too, knows that 1t cures, that it is sure to make the sick well if they use it. Fl have given Dr Greene's Nervura blood and nerve remedy q fair test. and am free to say that I consider it rightly named. l have recommended its use to several.
 REV J. w. WALKER, Presiding Elder, Fort Dodge. la, We have published the testimonials of vast numbers of people who were cured by the use of the great discovery. Dr Greene s l,I. ,,,l ra,,,alV hnt take more pleasure in giving to the world Rev Mir. Meacham's own words and those of Rev. Mir. Walker in regard to the won derful benefits they received from this valuable remedy. because We realize that the earnest words of minister will have 1 great weight with sufferers from disease, ! and everybody who reads their convincing words in regard to the sure and remarkable l curative powers of this medicine will lose nc | time in securing bottle and thus obtain a | cure.
 Most people need q medicine to invlSor' ate the blood. strengthen the nerves and start mp d healthy action of the liver, kid news and bowels. Be sure and use Dl i Greenc's Nervura blood and nerve remedy It is purely vegetable and perfectly harm less and is kept by all druggists at S1 .00
 Its discoverer is the well-known Dl Greene of 35 w. 14th Street. New York | who gives consultation and advice free |, the sick personally or by letter. The sick should use immediately Dr Grcenr's Ner l vura blood and nerve remedy, for 1t k no only the best remedy ever discovered bu those using it have the privilege of con sulting Dr Greene personally or by letter concerning its effects. their health, etc This fact alone guarantees the assurance Q cure If you need medicine do not fail t' take this best of all remedies.

that he did not like. but did not dare

that the best fellow was in the habit
OF calling often and early and OF stay

OF course he did not like at all. One
evening, not long ago. the best fell

compelled to retire, but not without
much grumbling and a few tears.
He could not sleep. On his dresser
an alarm clock licked merrily away
and as he listened an idea struck him
that quickly evolved itself into a
scheme for getting square with his
sister and her caller. Jumping out
of bed he grasped the clock and from
one OF his many we'll filled pockets

he attached to it. On sheet OF pa

of the error of looking on action as the

not ourselves been comforted." This
advice is specially pertinent to the
busy women of the day, who in the

lie Never Used IA Weapon, But Killed
Them Every Time.
"Bill Gregory uscl to slay moro
wildcats than any ten men in sullivan
county" said woodsman to the
Scranton correspondent Of the New
York sun, land he never carried a
weapon, neither. Fill was quicker
tlan a wildcat and he just loved to
get wildcats to spring at him. No
wildcat ever was too spry for Bill.
He used to carry lot of little darts
with him TO throw at wildcats, but
they were not weapons, for they only
pricked a wildcat just enough to
make it so angry that it would spring
at him in self defense. Bill had q
hand like boxing glove and when
ever wildcat sprang at him he gave
it blow on the head and broke its
neck every time.
'.One day Bill saw wildcat worry
ing the life out of porcuplne in the
woods. He threw darts at it till it
turned on him. and Bill braced him
self and gave it swat that laid it
out so stiir that it didn't have time to
be surprised. Bill once saw the hind
end of what he took to be a wood
chuck sticking out of the brush. He
gave it kick, and the next instant
he found that he had stirred up
wounded wildcat. The wildcat bit
through Bits Icowhide boot and big
toe nail. and when Bill yanked his
leg the wildcat sprang at his chest
and clawed so. hard that he had no
chance to swat it. so he bit it on tho
nose. The wildcat let loose and came
again. and Bill got>fn his deadly cuff.
bills game was to swat the wild
cat when it was in the air. One time
after he had killed several hundred
wildcats in that way, he saw a cata-
mount crouching for a rabbit He
flung a dart at it and the catamount
snapped at the pricked spot and
crouched again. Bill tickled it with
another dart and the catamount spied
him. gave scream and sprang for
his throat Bill sent the catamount
spinning around with one of his
famous swats on its chops, but failed
to break its neck. 1t made for him
again and Bill slapped his hands to-
gether, caught the catamount's head,
between them and mashed 1t as fiat
