But the Dude Grub Made His Wife Feel
Somewhat Stuck Up.

Somewhat Stuck Up.
A good story is told of Kansas farmer
who entered general store in Emporia
and inquired for "somethin nice to put OF
griddle cakes.''
"Molassesf" said the storekeeper.
NAV; somethin nicer. Ben eatin mo-
lasses for 20 years. Amt you got somethir

The grocer told him about maple strip
and praised it highly. All the tony peo-
ple' of Emporia used it, he said.
"That's what want. The high tonedest
you've got"
By @ strange mishap, when the boy went
to pack the goods for the socially ambi.
tious farmer he took tin of varnish, the
yarnish coming in square cans of kind
similar to those containing the maple sap.
Three or four months afterward the man
came back to town and reported at the
store The storekeeper, having made the
discovery of the error, was in panic. AT
length he mustered up courage to ask how
the maple strip had answered.

Portland had three goals to the good, but
Bath tied the score by excellent work.
Whipple and HadIey left the Portland
goal almost entirely unprotected, and
though Pickett made many excellent
stops the visitors were able to tie the
score. In less than a minute and half
of overtime playing Bath scored the
winning goal. 1t was an interesting and
exciting game throughout, Astounding In

way to cure deafness and that is by constitu-

the result, and unless the Inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored to its normal

His Honest Efforts to Prove the Efficacy
of His Remedy Meet with Tn

Free Distribution from the Office Of the Eastern

gist for What You Want.

Monday and Tuesday Prof. Munyon
advertised to give away, absolutely free,
5000 walls Of his Rheumatism Remedy.
requesting the newspapers of the city to
investigate and publish the results in
each case as reported to them, either
yon proposed to prove the efficacy of lis
Rheumatism Remedy before asking the
public to spend one cent. Never before
in the history of medicine has there been
a physician or company which have
dared to risk their reputation in and
actual test of the remedies by the people.
Such undbounded faith in thu virtue OF
their medicine, as shown by the Munyon
company, at once gave the public conf
dence in them, and the result has been
this:
Monday 1921 samples were given away
and yesterday the Eastern Argus build
ing was thronged with persons anxiously
waiting to obtain vial of Munyon' 8
Rheumatism Cure. The demand ex-
ceeded that of the previous day, and
when the distribution closed it was found
that 4, 39l sufferers had bean accommo-
dated, and now there are d., 391 sick and
afflicted persons testing the value OF the
cure. As the results are published enoh
day in the leading papers, no sdou bt
thousands who have given mp all hope OF
being relieved will be tempted to try this
and other remedies, just as effective,
manufactured by the Munyon company.
During the past four years Prof. Nun
yon has given away free over 5000 00C
bottles of his cures from leading dailies
all over TIE country, and in no case hav e

less than 80 per cent out of every 100
cured or greatly benefited. What u con-
trast between this honest method of prov
ing the virtue ofshis remedies and Others
who promise SO much, but always ask
the patient for money in advance.
Prof. Mnnyon does not expect you to
put any faith in his medicine until
thousands have tested their merits. He
does rot bring testimonials from other
places thousands of miles away, but OBJ
tains them in your own city in manner
which prevents any possible chance of de-
ceit or unbelief
If you are afflicted with any disease
