hindered fishing. Besides the shad will
notlgo into cold ice water.

sturgeon had been caught out in many
rivers because of no protection and

A severe rheumatic pain in the left Shout
der had troubled Mr.. j. H. Loper, a we'll
known druggist OF Des Moines, Iowa, for
over six months. At times the pain was
so severe that he could not lift anything.
With all he could do he could not get rid OF
it until he applied Chamberlain's Pain
Balm. Il only made three applications of
it, he says, And have since been free
from all pain" He now recommends it to
persons similarly afflicted. 1t is for sale at
Robbins Pharmacy.
