BILE newspaper is mantle OF charity,
and the matter left out-truth, not

the matter published. If an editor

Praising Disc Drills.

RITzvILLE, Wash, Aug. s, 1899.
Ritzville Hardware Co.
Gents:-The Superior disc drill l
bought of you last fall is, without a
doubt, the best grain drill ever intro
duced among Washington farmers.
Last fall put in 300 and last spring
$50 acres of wheat and no part OF the
drill is worn enough to mention. |
never knew the feed to choke or crack
a grain and never had moments
trouble in any kind of soil. 1t is, to
my notion, the most perfect drill
made, and l can recommend it to
any farmer. Yours truly,

During the civil war, as we'll as in
our late war with Spain, diarrhoea
was one of the most troublesome dis
eases the army had to contend with.
In many instances it became chronic
and the old soldiers still suffer from
it. Mr.. David Taylor of Wind Ridge,
Greene CO., Pa, is one of these. He
uses Chamberlain's Collie, Cholera and
Diarrhoea Remedy and says he never
found anything that would give him
such quick relief. 1T is for sale by
