"Do you rectity mistakes here?"
asked a gentlemen, as he stepped in
to a drug store. Eyes sir, we do, if
the patient is still alive" replied the
urbane clerk. Never was a druggist
called upon to answer such a ques-
ton, after selling a bottle of DR..
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery.

thin and pale. In spite Of dry
hacking cough, night sweats and
slight splitting of blood, you need
not fill a consumptive's grave. Take
the Discovery" and you will soon
be rid of the troubles which harass
you. But do not delay. Delay may
mean death and that mistake you
cannot rectlfy. Sold by druggists

Use ii in Time.

Catarrh starts in the nasal pas
sages, effecting eyes, ears and throat
and is in fact, the great enemy of the
mucous membrane. Neglected colds
in the head almost invariably precede
cataTh, causing an excessive flow of
mucous, and if the mucous discharge
becomes interrupted the disagreeable
effects of catarrh will follow, such as
badbrea tn, severe pain across the
forehead and about the eyes, a roar
ing and buzzing sound in the ears
and oftentimes very offensive dis
charge. Ely's Cream Balm is the
acknowledged cure for these troubles.
