DIR. Miles Heart Cur
Effected Cure.

Heart disease is durable, but in people Of
advanced ageit does not readily lend itself
to ordinary treatment. There is, however,
hope for all sufferers in DR.. Miles Heart
Cure, which we know from watching hum
dreds of cases and from the letters of grateful
sufferers, will cure where all else has failed.
1t is not only wonderful cure for weak and
diseased hearts, but it is a blood tonic, a reg
ulator of the hearts action and the most
effective treatment ever formulated for inn
proving the circulation of the blood.
1During the Civil war / contracted heart
disease, and in 1896, while living inthe grand
old town of Lexington. Va, grew so much
worse, left there with my wife to visit my
sister-in-law, Mrs. /. A. Kirby, at Roanoke
Va. While said nothing to anyone never
expected to live to return to the dear old
town. On reaching Mrs. Kirby's she insisted

Prentiss lvfe for County Treasurer.

Mr.. Prentiss Buie, prominent
citizen of the Caseyville commu-
nifty, has entered the race for
county treasurer. Mr.. Buie is no
stranger to the people of Lincoln
county nor to the duties of the
treasurer's office. In 1895 he was
elected county treasurer and
served four years and made one
of the best officials the county
ever had, accounting for every
cent entrusted to his keeping
when he retired at the end of his
constitutional term. By his ex-
ira precaution to observe the pro-
visions of the law, Mr.. Buie OBJ
waited a complication in the treas
urer's office, which occurred in
some other counties where the
treasurers were less cautious.
After retirement of four years,
he promises to give the paopie an
administration equally honest and
business-like, promise all who
know him do not doubt he will
faithfully keep.

She has talent for the editorial

interested in their profession.

We learn that the statement of
our correspondent in last weeks
issue that the Sweet Water school
had secured the services of Prof.
Afford for another term, was
premature, and that no such ar
rangement had actually been made.
In view, however, of the pleas
ant relations subsisting between
Prof. Afford and the patrons of
the school, it is very likely such a
result will follow.
