He is now Cured, and He Thanks God
and P. PIP, Lippman's Great REM
e6y, For It.

Mr.. George Briggs, of Moore, Okla,
suffered almost indescribable torment
for three long years Neuralgia held
him captive. The right side of his face
was so badly affected that the slightest
touch would cause the unfortunate
man intense agony. For several weeks
he could open his mouth Just wide
enough to be fed with liquid nourish-
ment, and in this manner life was sus-
tanned. Read the following extract
from his letter: "Truth is stranger
than Fiction"
NEURALGIA, CATARRH AND kHEUMA.
TISM COMPLETELY CURED.
George Briggs, of Moore, Oklahoma,
writes that P. P. P, Lippman's Great
Remedy, cured him of catarrh, facial
neuralgia and rheumatism, after three
years of intense suffering. The pain
lay in his cheek boneand temple, down
the right side of his face, along his
upper lip, and from the slightest touch
he suffered agonies for weeks at a time.
Could only open his mouth wide enough
to admit teaspoon, and any acid in
his food would put him in torture. He
had a consultation Of the best physi-
clans in Texas, but all to no purpose.
Catarrh and rheumatism were also
causing him much trouble, until he
tried ?. P. P. He says he is well and
will swear that there are no cases Of
neuralgia, catarrh and rheumatism,
no matter how chronic or how old the
cases are, that P. P. P. will not make
total cure of.
Mr.. Briggs winds up his testimony
by saying he thanks God and our med
icine, P. P. P, Lippman's Great Rem
edy, for the great cure.
Kidney troubles, If neglected, bring
about serious and painful and very
often fatal results P. P. P. removes
the irregularities, and cures the dis
eased parts.
Dyspepsia and indigestion. skin and
blood diseases, can be speedily removed
by P. P. F., Lippman's Great Remedy.
Ladies, take P. P. P. and rid your
face of pimples, blotches, freckles,
yellow or muddy skin, wrinkles and
vulgar redness

evening We walked along the beach and
came upon little half breed boy lying on
his back on the sand, with his hands clasp

a little Of the slack Topped around his foot,
and 1t ran out into the water. Almost i'm

The boy looked Indifferent, but sat half
way up and pulled in the line, which was
about 60 feet long, and made up Of as many
pieces As the tail of kite. He had this
time halibut that would weigh perhaps
90 pounds. Drawing it well up on the
bank, he released the hook and cast it out
again. In two minutes more he was pull

but. Then he caught couple of founders
and another cod and 60 on When he arose
after awhile to go, the boy wound in his
line, said a few words in Aleut about the
weather or something else and, picking out
one of the fish that suited his fancy went
home.-Chicago Record.

There are two little boys in Germany
who honestly believe they have rid the
world Of the devil. They live near Hunte-
burg and are 8 and 12 years of age. The
other day they were left by their mother
at home to take care Of the house. A man
with blackened face and black attire sud-
denly entered and announced: 81 am the
devil. Where do you keep your money!
Faith and fear alike induced them to be-
lieve the intruder. They instantly pointed
to q trunk where the modest wealth of
their parents was treasured. While the
murky impostor was ransacking the chest
the younger boy whispered to his brother
to 60 and fetch the gun and shoot the devil
dead. The brother jumped at the idea,
fetched the weapon, crept up to the IN
suspecting thief and lodged the whole
