MILLIONAIRE s POOR
STOMACH.

The worn out stomach of the over
fed millionaire is often paraded in
the public prints as horrible ex-
ample of the evil attendant on the
possession of great wealth. But
nillionaires are not the only ones
who are afflicted with bad stomachs.
The portion is far greater among
the tailors. Dyspepsia and indlges-
ton are rampant among these peo-
pie, and they suffer far worse tor
lures than the millionaire unless
they avail themselves of a standard
medicine like Green's August
Flower, which has been a favorite
household remedy, for all stomach
troubles for over thirty years. Au-
gust Flower rouses the torpid liver
thus creating appetite and insuring
perfect digestion. 1t tones and Wit

A SAVING Of STEPS.

If a telephone would save you a
half dozen trips day-it usually
saves people from three to six times
that many wouldn't it be an eco
nomical investment?
A telephone in your house or
place of business costs you less than
10 cents a day. Six trips day
would cost you not less than ten
cents each, or a total of 90 cents.
In month this would foot up the
enormous total Of SIS counting
Sundays and all. But some busi-
ness men use their phone 100 or
more times a day. They couldn't
do without it.
Wen install your phone for you
in days notice. Our local ex-
change and toll system have all
been overhauled and placed in
first class condition. We guarantee
good service, prompt courteous at
tention. All you have to do is to
ring up central. "
Don't you think you
had better install a
phone ?
