Good Health

and pure blood are inseparable. II
your blood Is bad. your health must suf-
Ter. Poor blood allows the body to lose
vitality just as q poor fire under the
boiler allows the steam to run down.
From poor blood to impure blood Is but
. step, and impure blood is mother to q
large percentage of human ills. DR..
Harter's Iron Tonic is an antidote for
both poor and impure blood, for it is
both a builder and purifier "a food
and medicine. 1t Is the best combi-
nation of the kind known to medical
science, and its success for nearly half
. century has led to its endorsement by
thousands of medical men who have
been unable to find q substitute.

burg if she were allowed to ex.

why is not the tax proposition
for such purpose an excellent
one! In such an event all prop

Advertising pays in the long
run. Get the people talking
about your town and good results
will follow. The town will grow.
People will move into it. Manu-

locate here. Those institutions
bring the people into communi-

is something doing all the time.

As a rule, the farmer pays but
little attention to advertising.
He is not used to it. and conse-
quently has not good Judgment
as to what it will do for him. a
few years ago a neigbbor had
Gne four year-old Guernsey DULL
that he wanted to sell to prevent
inbreeding. All that the stock
yards people in this city would
pay for the animal was $40. He
spoke to US about it. We told
him that the stock ward was no
market for breeding animals.
The men to sell that kind OF
stock to were men who want
them for breeding purposes. We
suggested that he put a small
advertisement in the Dairyman,
but when we told him it might
cost him SIS, he took fright at
once. He could not look beyond
that S.. Finally we coaxed him
to try it, and he received, be
said, a bushel of letters, finally
selling the bull for $40, and had
to send back several drafts of
that amount to those who wanted
to buy, but were too late with
their money. He made S25 by
the investment or 500 per cent.
He learned his lesson and prac-
ticed on it until his death year
or so ago.
Last autumn we had 400
bushels of fine two.rowed Bava-
rian barley to sell. All the buy
ers in this vicinity would pay
was IS cents. A small adver-
tisement in the Dairyman has
sold 430 bushels, all we can
spare, at Sl.25 bushel, bag in
cluded.
A few years ago we persuaded
three farmers near this city,
who bad each half dozen or so
nice Jersey and Guernsey grade
heifer calves to advertise them.
Answers came from dozen
states, and they all went in a
bunch to a purchaser in Idaho.
Farmers do not often enough
try to cooperate in this way.
Somebody must come along and
urge them into it. That shows
lack of good business enterprise.
Good reward and profit can
often be made on many products
Of the farm, like seed grain, dairy
cattle, we'll bred pigs and fowls,
by advertising them in good
farm paper. The paper is CO.
between that should be used
more than it is. Farmers
should use good business judg-
ment as we'll as merchants and
manufacturers. 1t is more than
half the battle to be a good sell.

ITCHING eczema
And Other Itching, Burning and
Sealy ElHpiols.
Instant Relief and Speedy
Cure Afforded by
Cuticura Soap, Ointment and Pills
when All Elise Fails.
COMPLETE TREATMENT, Sl.00.

The agonizing itching and burning of
the skin, as in eczema; the frightful
scaling, as in psoriasis; the loss of hair
and crusting Of the scalp, as in scaled
head; the facial Disagreement, as in
pimples and ringworm; the awful suf-
fering of infants and the anxiety of
worn-out parents, as in milk crust, tet-
ter and salt rheum, all demand a rem
edy of almost superhuman virtues to
successfully cope with them. That
Cuticura Soap, Ointment and Pills are
such stands proven beyond all doubt.
No statement is made regarding them
that is not justified by the strongest
evidence. The purity and sweetness,
the power to afford immediate relief,
the certainty of speedy and permanent
cure, the absolute safety and great
economy, have made them the standard
skin cures and humour remedies of the
civilized world.
Battle the affected parts with hot
water and Cuticura Soap, to cleanse the
surface Of crusts and scales and soften
the thickened cuticle. Dry, without
hard rubbing, and apply Cuticura Oint-
ment freely, to allay itching, irritation
and inflammation, and soothe and heal,
and, lastly, In the severer forms, take
Cuticura Resolvent Pills, to cool and
cleanse the blood. A single set is ofter
sufficient to cure the most torturing,
disfiguring and humihating skin, scalp
and blood humours, with loss of hair,
when all else fails,
