DR.. D. A. BlSBEE'S NEW DE-
PARTURE.

selling Medicine at Half Price Under
Guarantee to Cure.
After two months of remarkable sales,
DR.. ID. A. Bisbee, the enterprising drug
gist, says that his plan of selling at half
price the regular 80 cent size of DR..
Howard's specific for the cure of consti-
patton and dyspepsia, and guaranteeing
to refund the money If it does not cure,
has been the greatest success he has
eyer known.
He has sold hundreds of bottles of the
specific, and as yet he has not had one
returned, although he stands ready at
any time to refund the money should
any customer be dissatisfied This Is
the strongest testimony that can be
furnished to the great merit of this
medicine.
Any one suffering with dyspepsia,
constipation, liver troubles, headaches,
dizziness, coated tongue, or the general
tired feeling, caused by inactive liver
and bowels or disordered digestion,
should take advantage of DR.. D. A.
Bisbee's new departure and buy bottle
of DR.. Towards specific at half price,
with his personal guarantee to return
the money if it does not cure.
The specific comes in the form of small
granules, very pleasant to take, and
each vial contains sixty doses. Under
DR.. d. A. Bisbee's special half-price
offer, this means a months treatment for
% cents, with the best medicine known
/ for the cure of constipation and stomach
troubles.
If you cannot 20 to his store today,
send him your order by mail, as DR.. D..
A. Bisbee has only a limited supply to
sell at this special price.

An inning had just been ended,
and the crowd was gathered around
the umpire, discussing one of the de-
cisions made by him during the pro-
gress of the game, when Mr.. S. Nj.
Taylor, who had obtained his base on
balls, was deserted making his way
with stealthy strides around the
bases. Mr.. Taylor took his time, and
stopped at each base to gain his
breath and take in the landscape. In
this way, by dint of much putting
and blowing and great physical effort,
Mr.. Taylor had managed to reach
third base. There one of the specta.
tors, thinking he had a right to
understand everything that was
going on, he having paid full fare at
the gate, Intercepted Mr.. Taylor in

he was doing. "Hush, you F."

this discovery.
