Cumulative Evidence

A proof of merit in any article is the
amount of free advertising it receives.
The universal success of Pabst Malt
Extract, The "Best" Tonic, is largely
due to one persons telling another OF
the benifits derived from its use. 1t is
sold in almost every city and town in
the United States. It's purity and efficacy
have given it the immense popularity it
has attained. 1t is Endorsed by thou
sands of physicians and patients. It
makes strength. 1t gives vigor and
health when every avenue of hope seems
to be closed.
When you ask for Pabst Malt Extract,
The "Best" Tonic, do not be led into
buying something else. Many imita,
tons have recently appeared. Remem.

Sunday, on the farm of Lee Watkins.
about half mile from what is known
as the boiling spring." a spring of
water gushed out of a hillside that pos
sesses intoxicating properties. The
water has a slight acid taste, is a lit
tie darker than rainwater, and a pint
of 1t will produce the effect of a fourth
or half that much whisky. When al
lowed to stand in glass for half an
hour it precipitates an amber olored
sediment, and the clear water above
has no intoxicating effect. 1t is said
that the Indians tell of a spring which
