plainants concerning the dumping of gar

A Soldiers Sensations

ut was the big shell and shrapnel," said
a soldier from Cuba, that made us hug the
ground, but 1t was the little Mauser bullets
that killed our men," 1t is the same in
every day life. People shiver with panic
at the mention of smallpox or yellow fever,
but it is the little disorders of the stom-
ach that really do the most killing. The
best medicine for the stomach is Hostel
ter's Stomach Bitters. 1t cures indigestion
and dyspepsia. 1t Is just as good for
women as for men. For a rundown, de-
bilitated condition nothing is so good or so
sure to cure. Hostetter's Stomach Bitters
is an old-time remedy. 1t has stood the
test for years. and it's popularity increase
day by day.

What
In a Hat?

Well, that depends. We have heard of
some pretty shabby looking old hats
that covered the brain power that in
time swayed nations. On the other
hand, inside some of the finest silk
tiles that have ever been turned out,
are heads that contain SO little of the
quality to be desired. gray matter,
that the height of ambition is con-
tanned in "suckable cane" Another
kind used to be quite prominent in I'VE
olden time"-when it was passed
around in the meeting house." With
out doubt the contents of that hat was
often the source of great anxiety to
the preacher. We believe, now we
come to think of it, that the custom is
not yet altogether obsolete. Grand
pas hat" and it's contents have now
become a matter of familiar history
And now that we're speaking about
hats we want you to know that the
name "Silverwood" in your hat means
that you can bring 1t back and get
your money back If it don't wear
right. Our hats run from 81. 90 to SO. co.
and our $500 hats could be no better If
we charged $500 for them.
