A Remarkable Case.

One of the most rem arkable
cases of a cold, deep-seated on
the lungs, causing pneumonia, is
that of Mrs. Gertrude E. Fen
ner, Marion, Ind, who was en-
tirely cured by the use of One
Minute Cough Cure. She says:
1.-THE coughing and straining so
weakened me that I run down in
weight from 14S to 90 pounds. I
tried a number of remedies to no
avail until [ used One Minute
Cough Cure. Four bottles of
this wonderful remedy cured
me entirely of the cough,
my lungs and re-
stored me to my normal weight,
health and strength. Sold by

What's In a Name?

Everything is in the name
when it comes to Witch Hazel
Salve. E. G.. Dewitt & Co. of
Chicago, discovered, some years
ago, how to make a salve from
Witch Hazel that is a specific for
Piles. For blind, bleeding, itch
ing and protruding Piles, &C.
zema, cuts, burns, bruises and
all skin diseases, DeWitt's Salve
has no equal. This has given
rise to numerous worthless
cOunterfeits. Ask for DeWitt's
