Representative Brownlow, of Tennes-

printing "fghting" language every week.
One day, just after the paper was out, a
big man armed with club, walked into
the sanctum and fiercely inquired if the
editor was in. The frightened Mr.. Brown
low had wit enough to answer that he
was not, but that he would 60 out and
hunt him up. He started for the street
and at the foot of the stairs met another
irate fellow, who asked: "Will I find the
editor of this dirty sheet upstairs?"

GIVE YOUR STOMACH REST.

GIVE YOUR STOMACH REST.
Your food must be properly digested
and assimilated to be of value to you. If
your stomach is weak or diseased take
kodol Dyspepsia Cure. It digests what
you eat and gives the stomach rest, en-
abling it to recuperate, take on new life
and, grow strong again. Kodol cures
sour stomach, gas, bloating, heart pslpita-
ton and digestive disorders. L. A. Soper,
of Little Rock, Ky, writes as: 1--WE feel
that Kodol Dyspepsia Cure deserves all
the recommendation that can be given It
as it saved the life of our little girl when
she was three years old. She Is now six
and We have kept it for her constantly,
but of course she only takes it now when
anything disagrees with her." Sold by
