BOY WAS SOMEWHAT MIXED.
Had Wrong Idea Of the Sound to 30
Removed.

Deacon Allen Sheldon, who recently
passed away, was universally respect
ed by all who knew him, and his
stories were listened to with much de-
light, says a writer In the Boston
Herald. He used to tell the following
with great deal of interest:
When a very small boy he asked his
father to let him go with him to the
town meeting. He went, with the
promise that when he returned he
would tell the folks what happened.
In those days the church was sup
ported by tax ON every property
holder. Whatever of interest came up
for the church had to be voted on at
the town meeting.
The pastor being feeble and his
voice not strong. an article in the
town warrant called for the removal
of the sounding board from over the
pastors head, since it acted as an ex-
tinguisher, and not as originally
planned. When Allen returned he
told his mother about the sounding
board, and said:
"Mr. Flagg got up and said, in his
squeaky voice: Mr.. Moderator. l
make a motion that we remove the
sound from under the board"

BALM OF SCRIPTURE
HEALING PROPERTIES OF PINE
KNOWN TO ANcIENTs.
OIL Of the White Pine Tree Used Sue
cessfulIy by Physicians In Treat
ing consumptive Patients.

The OIL Of the Pine Tree is sup
posed to be the balm Of Scripture. It
contains great medicinal properties
and was regarded with the utmost
esteem by the ancients, and to the
present day is peculiarly priced by
the people Of the East.
A noted authority on diseases of the
throat and lungs, who established q
camp for consumptives in the Pine
Woods of Maine, says that his entire
treatment consisted of fresh air,
nourishing food and the Pure Virgin
Oil Of the White Pine Trees, mixed
with Whisky and Glycerine in the fol.
lowing proportions:
Virgin Oil Of Pine (Pure) .Hoz.
Glycer1ne ............
Good Whisky ...............
Used in teaspoonful doses every four
hours.
1t is claimed the above mixture will
heal and strengthen the lungs, break
up a cold in twenty-four hours, and
cure any cough that is durable.
The ingredients can be secured
from any good prescription druggist
at small cost, and can be easily mixed
in your own home.
Virgin Oil of Pine (Pure) is put up
only in half-ounce Walls for dispensing.
Each vial is securely sealed in q
round wooden case with engraved
wrapper with the name-Virgin Oil
Of Pine (Pure), prepared only by
Leach Chemical Co., Cincinnati, o.
plainly printed thereon. There are
many rank limitations Of Virgin Oil
of Pine (Pure), which are put out
under various names, such as Con-
centrated Oil of Pine, Pine Bal
sam, etc. Never accept these as a
substitute for the Pure Virgin Oil Of
Pine, as they will invariably produce
nausea and never effect the desired
result.

BRING GOOD HEALTH
Or. William Pink Pills, Used After
the Grip, Arrest Fatal Decline and
Rebuild the System.

Any bodily weakness caused by
deficiency in the blood can be cured
by the use of DR.. Williams Pink Pills
because these pills actually make new
blood. After attacks of the grip the
blood is generally run down and the
patient continues to decline.
about three years ago. says Mrs.
Jennie Cowan, Of 71S N. Henry
Street, West Bay City, Mich, II
caught a severe cold, which ran into
the grip. I was confined to my bed
for two weeks. At the end Of that
time I was able to be about, but was
completely run down. l was so weak
could hardly stand, my cheeks had
no color and I felt faint. My heart
would futter and it was difficult for
me to breathe at times. Neuralgia
settled in the back Of my head and
stomach and I suffered from rheuma.
tism In my shoulders.
II had the care of the best doctor
in town but became no better until
friend told me one day how she had
been cured by DR.. Williams Pink
Pills and I decided to try them. I
soon felt better and continued using
them until I was entirely cured. They
built me up again to perfect health
and I use them now whenever feel
at all sick and they always help me-"
DR.. Williams Pink Pills are inval-
unable in such cases, as well as in
other blood diseases, because they not
only drive off the germs Of the disease
but build up the system. The pills
have cured anaemia. rheumatism, af-
ter-effects Of fevers, neuralgia and
many other severe disorders.
DR.. Williams Pink Pills are sold
by all druggists, or sent. postpaid, on
receipt of price, so cents per box,

WHITE BREAD

trouble. My husband called new
doctor and after having gone without
any food for 10 days the doctor Or
dered Grape-Nuts for me. l could eat
the new food from the very first
mouthful. The doctor kept me on
Grape-Nuts and the only medicine
was a little glycerine to heal the
alimentary canal.
'SWhen Twas up again doctor told
me to eat Grape-Nuts twice day and
40 white bread for two years. l got
well in good time and have gained in
strength so I can do my own work
