YOUR BLOOD MADE NEW.

Your heart beats about sixty thousand times a day. Every drop of blood in your veins visits every part of your body about five hundred times each twenty four hours Is 1t any wonder that many troubles arise when the blood is not right7
 Is it hard to understand why health quickly returns when you take a remedy like pr. Harter's Iron Tonic a remedy that purifies and enriches the blood?
 It does far more than that, because it Is the perfect example of everything that tonic" stands for. But 1t would be a wonderful remedy If It's power to make red. rich blood was it's only property. 1t is far better than so-called blood purifiers because 1t both makes and purifies the blood.
 If is not one of the crude forms of iron that injures the teeth and stomach, but a delicate harmless form that Is almost in- stantly passed from the stomach to the blood. In the blood 1t battles against weakness and disease, and helped by the other ingredients of that famous remedy. if rtds the system of all impurities and helps each sluggish organ to do it's full duty.
 If you have skin disease, rheumatism, stomach trouble, nervousness, or if you have any reason to believe that your blood is disordered or that your health is running down. be just to yourself and try this remedy.
 Dr. Harter's Iron Tonic has for forty five years been made only by the Dr. Harter Medicine Co.,. Dayton, Ohio. Sold everywhere.

The officer, in discharging his duty, was forced to shoot negro named Will Lewis, a drayman of Birmingham, who interferred in the fight and attempted to draw his gun. Lewis was put off at this point for medical attention and died at 1:30 a. m.
 "A negro badly cut was left at Fayette and another suffering of knife wounds was left at Steens for medical attention. The remains of Lewis were shipped to Steens, Miss, this afternoon.' e.

and made them wish that Grandpa"
