The tidal wave Of prosperity and renewed
business confidence which is sweeping over
this great agricultural section of the Middle
West, has swept too far to make it neces
sary to talk of good prospects. Business
prosperity is a real thing right here in orr
midst. and the impulse has already been
felt by every line of business from producer
to manufacturer.

Governor Leedy, Kansas.

Considering the State as whole, Kansas
has excellent crops this year. The failure
OF the grain supply in other parts of the
world has naturally resulted in great de-

therefor. My Judgment is that this will i'm

the industries. Yes, prosperity is here.

When a horse Is poor in flesh,
a new harness won't give him
strength. If a house is cold
new furniture won't warm It.
If your strength Is easily ex-
haustsd; work a burden;
nerves weak; digestion poor,
muscles soft; If you arc pale
and worn out the trouble Is
with the blood. 1t is not so
much IMPURE blood as
POOR blood. Pills won't
make this blood rich; nor viii

more than a new harness viii
give strength to the horse, or
new furniture will make a

you want something that will
