Financially Embarrasse d.

A large manufacturer, whose af-
fairs were very much embarrassed
and who was overworked and broken
down with nervous exhaustion, went
to celebrated specialist. He was
told that the only thing needed was
to be relieved of care and worry, and
have change of thought. This doc.
tor was more considerate of his pa
TENTS health than of his financial
circumstances. He ought to have
advised him to use DR.. Miles Res,

The craving for stimulants follows
the excessive use of tobacco in any
form. All modern medical works
teach this. Young man, whittier
are you drifting? The use of tobac
co itself is one of the worst practices
of the present day. 1t stunts the
growth of the young, destroys the
vitality of adults, causes blindness,
nervous prostration, heart failure,
catarrh, dyspepsia and general de-
bility. Have you reached that
stage where you are compelled to
acknowledge your inability to es-
cape from it's clutches?
Ifyou have then this notice comes
to you in the form of message of
peace and tidings of great Joy. At
last, after years of careful res earch
and experiment, Hill's Chloride of
Gold Tablets for the cure of the to-
bacco habit have been prepared and
given to the world, and you need
no longer suffer thraldom.
Go to your local druggist or write
to the Ohio Chemical Co., Lima, o.,
for box of Hills Tablets, In few
days you can then tell your friends
about your wonderful cure while
you sing them the praises of Hills
Tablets.

Don't Put it on.

The necessity ofa spring medicin e
is universally admitted. 1t is the
best time of year in which to purify
the blood, to restore the lost appe-
lite, and to build up the entire system,
sthe body isnow peculiarly suscep.
tible to benefit from medicine. The
great popularity attained by Hoods
Sarsaparilla owing to its real and its
remarkable success, has established it
as the very best medicine to take it
in the spling. 1t cures scrofula, salt
rheum, and all humors, billiousness,
dyspepsia, headache, kidney and liv-
yer complaints, catarrh, and all affec-
tions caused or promoted by low
state of the system Or impure blood.
Don't put it off, but take Hoods
Sarsaparilla. 1t will do you good.

The Little Old Man Of the storm.

The negroes at this place had .
mystery to deal with, and they were
very much perplexed by it. The
mystery was in the shape of little
old man, who had come into the set
Element in the very middle and height
of the storm The negroes were not
afraid of the little old man, but ii
was plain they regarded him with
something more than shade of su
perstition. One of the negro men,
trying to reach the big house, was
tossed by the rising tide against a
live oak. into which he clambercd
with all possible haste. He sat there
all night, and at dawn found at his
side the little old man, who was not
only as contented as possible, but
actually noGding on the limb. He
was an entire stranger. The negro
asked him who he was and where lie
came from, but all the reply he could
get was "John Omcum." / spell the
name the best | know how, phoneti-
cally. 1t may be Armcome or Arm
strong. But "John Omcumn was
all that could be got out of the little
old man in the tree. None of the
negroes had ever seen him before,
and none had ever heard of him.
Where did he come from? Was he
blown from Hilton Head Island
across the long sweep Of Port Royal
Sound, or did he drift from one OF
the little islands in the Chechessce
River.
The little old man was pointed
out to me. He stood apart, for he
was too much of mystery to invite
familiarity on the part of the other
negroes. He smiled shrewdly,
bhnked his little eyes, and seemed to
feel some sort of pride in his pecu-
liar position. He was Old and wrin-
killed. and dried up, ard yet wonder
fully alert. While the rest of the
party were gone to look at the cid
family graveyard that had been flood
ed by the tide, | had Jonn Omcum
all to myself. l crossed his palm
with a silver dollar, and he followed
me about the place, ambling close at
my heels wherever went; but never
a whisper could l get from him as
to how or whence he came.-From

Simple Questions Simply Am
SWered.

Why do people very often allow a
cold to run on? Because they think
it will wear away. Why does the
Cough that at first caused no alarm
become deep-seated and chronic?
Because the proper remedy was not
used. The way to break up any
Cough or Cold, no matter if other
medicines failed to benefit you, is to
try Pan Tina, the great remedy for

1t is impossible to prvent cough
and cold in the winter season. A
draught OF air, the going out Of a
fire or any sudden change OF the
temperature of room is sufficient
to produce such a result. While
we cannot prevent, we can easily
cure these troublesome affections
with few doses Of DR.. Bulls Cough
Syrup.

The usual treatment of catarrh is
very un satisfactory, as thousands
can testify. Proper local treatment
is positively necessary to successary
to success, but many, if not most,
of the remedies in general use afford
but temporary relief. A cure GER
tainly cannot be expected from
snufs, powders, douches and washes.

combines the important requisites of
quick action, specific curative power
with perfect safety and pleasantness
