many people do not get any real comfort
You meet ten people. Nine Of them are in
need of some kind of coincidence There is
something in their health, or in their state,
or in their domestic condition that de-

worlds sympathy amounts to absolutely
nothing. People go to the wrong crib, or
they go in the wrong way. When the
plague was in Rome great many years
ago, there were so men who chanted them
selves to death with the litanies Of Gregory

In recent letter to the manufact-
urers Mr.. w. F. Benjamin, editor of
the Spectator, Rushford, N. Y, says:
ut may be a pleasure to you to
know the high esteem in which
Chamberlain's medicines are held by
the people of your own state, where
they must be best known. An aunt
of mine, who resides at Dexter, Iowa,
was about to visit me a few years
since, and before leaving home wrote
me, asking if they were sold here,
stating If they were not she would
bring quantity with her, as she
did not like to be without them"
The medicines referred to are Chamb-
erlain's Cough Remedy, famous for
its cures of colds and Group; Chamb-
lain's Pain Balm for rheumatism,
lame back, pains in the side and
chest, and Chamberlain's Collie, Chol-
era and Diarrhoea Remedy for bowel
complaints. These medicines have
been in constant use in Iowa for al
most a quarter of century The
people have learned that they are
articles of great worth and merit, and
unequaled by any other. They are
for sale here by d. J. Humphrey.
