VIRULENT oANoER CURED.


Startling proof Of a wonderful advance
in medicine is given by druggist G. W.
Roberts of Elizabeth, W. Va. An old
man there had long suffered with what
good doctors pronounced incurable
cancer. They believed mis- case hopeless
till he used Electric Bitters and APP
piled Bucklen's Arnica salve, which
treatment completely cured him.
When Electric Bitters are used to ex-
pei bilious, kidney and microbe poisons
at the same time this salve exerts its
matchless healing power, blood diseases,
skin eruptions. ulcers and sores
vanish. Bitters SOC, Salve 25c at Hall
& Lyles.

''DAD.''

There are a class of men who
are seldom, if ever, appreciated
at their true value. In this en-
lightened age they are commonly
called Dad" 1t is dad" that
humps himself year in and year
out, on the farm, in the Office or
workshop, in order that his Roy
or girl may go away to school,
and upon their return, that the
boy may have a fine horse and
top buggy and the girl a costly
piano. 1t is dad" that hustles
and cultivates great calloused
knots or his hands and becomes
stoop-shouldered in order that
his offspring may revel in luxury
and make fools of themselves.
His sons and daughters have
learned at his expense to despise
his old-fashioned ways. They
secretly laugh at the style of his
Sunday coat and bell-crowned
hat. On Sunday when his daugh-
ter has company and he would
like to sit in the parlor and listen
to the music, he is given in var
ious ways to understand that his
presence is not desirable, and
the poor old man goes out into
the kitchen and stays the remain
der of the afternoon. God help
the son or daughter who goes
back on dad" In the catalogue
of low-down cussedness that of
ingratitude to ones parents is
the most contemplate.
