Do Not Crowd the Season.

The first warm days of spring bring with them desire to get out and enjoy the exkilirating air and sunshine. Children that have been housed up all winter are brought out and you wonder where they all came from. The heavy winter clothing is thrown aside and many shed their flannels. Then cold wave comes and people say that grip is epidemic. Colds atthis season are even more dangerous than in mid-winter, as there is much more danger of pneu- monia. Take Chamberlain's Cough Remedy, however, and you will have nothing to fear. It always cures and we have never known cold to result from pneumonia when it was used. It is pleasant and safe to take. Children like it. For sale by all druggists.

Letter to w. T .Gray
Green Forest, Ayk.

Dear sir: Why, do you think, can Devoe sell pure paint as low as others sell adulterated paint? There are 30 or 40 or 90 differ ent makes of paint that rank, in a way, as first class;" they have their regions; ones region is large, another's is small !; everyone is first. class" in it's region.
 Of these 30 or 40 or 50, one is best, another next, and so on down; but the prices are all the same or about the same-you can buy one for less than anoth. CT though; a personal matter sometimes.
 But how, do you think, can Devoe sell the best for no more than the rest? The answer is: it cost less to sell it; more to make, less to sell. Reputation helrs sell it It's 150 years help sell it. Go by the name.
 Yours truly
 F. W. DEvoE & Co. New York, Chicago and Kansas City.

MANY remarkable things ap

MANY remarkable things ap- pear in the last annual report of the Secretary of Agriculture. Tho farm products of 1906 had a farm value of $500, ,0O0, ,00O, half a billion over 1905 and in excess of two billions more than the pro- ductions of the census year 1900. Corn remains by far the most valuable crop, estimated at $1,- 100, ,000,O0 while cotton, next on the list including seed, was worth to it's growers S6+, ,000, ,000. Thus King corn knocks out Kicg cotton and becomes easily "mon- arch of all he surveys" Hay is third at S6O0,000,OOO wheat, S450, ,000, ,000; oats. $500, ,O00, ,000; potatoes, $150, ,00Q, GOO.

School Chii,lren's Dyspepsia.

The common form of dyspepsia, or digestion, which stops the growth, pales the cheeks, weakens the system of SO many school children, in cften due to improper or too quickly eaten lunches. While seeing to correction of the cause, it is also important to cure the disordered conditions of stomach and bowels. This can be done by no medi- cine so safely and surely as by Dr. Caldwell's 'Qaxatlve) Syrup Pepsin. Try it. Sold by R. L. Jernigan at 50c and $1.00. Money back if it fails.

Debility if Unchecked Often Runs Into Fatal Decline-Get Grips After-Effects Out of Your Sys-
 tenn and Enjoy Strength
 and .Vieor Once More.

An attack of grip depletes the blood, reduces the vitality and leaves the system in a rundown condition that is almost sure to invite disease if not cor rected.
 1t is a a>condition that calls emphatic ally for a tonic for the blood. Dr Will iams' Pink Pills are tonic especially adapted to meet this need They en- able the blood to absorb oxygen, the great sustalner of organic life. they tone up the nerves and give vigor, strength and health to the debilitated system.
 Mrs Sarah Railsback, of 1O6 South street, Richmond, Ind, says: +.I had attacks of grip every winter for about ten years. 1t left me with no appetite, l was miserable all the time and could hardly drag myself around I lost in was chilly and cold and ached all over.
 'tI was under the care of our family doctor but got no relief until my niece persuaded me to try Dr Williams Pink Pills. 1t was not long before had an appetite and could eat. I certainly got cured me. The aches and pains left me and I gained in weight. I take the pills every spring to build up my blood and tone up my stomach. I always recommend Dr Williams Pink Pills to my friends and think they are a grand medicine"
 The value of Dr Williams Pink Pills in debility cases lies in their. direct response to the needs of the blood. That they do this well is shown by the grad ual disappearance of the symptoms and the return of color and health They lay the foundation for permanent health in the future
 A valuable booklet, Diseases O. the Blood" containing fuller inform ation will be sent free upon request.
 Dr Williams Pink Pills are sold b, all druggists, or will be sent, post paid, on receipt of price, 50 cents pc box, six boxes $2. 50, by the Dr Will Hams Medicine Company, Schenectady

INTERESTING LETTER.
IN EASTERN BOY IN THE WEST.

AN EASTERN BOY IN THE WEST.
 Editor Newtown Bee: From f. nancial point of view, I believe as a rule the West offers better opportuni ties than in the East, viz, the cheap land that can to-day be bought at a low figure. In Colorado, land is being purchased at an astonishing rate. Land that we are selling to-day at $8 per acre will in less than two years sell for more than double what it cost. Actual settlers are now focking to that great and beautiful country.
 The climate is delightful. While in Iowa and South Dakota the winters are cold, in Colorado the winters are very mild and an overcoat is seldom needed. goes all the way from 35 to 40 bushels per an acre. Oats from 50 to 75 per acre. Corn by the way is not as sure crop as in Iowa, Nebraska or Dakota.
 The average is about 35 bushels per acre: Fruit is abundant and of a finer quality than can be raised in many states. Cherry trees bear in the third year, the OK heart variety.
 The land in Kit Carson county, Wash ington and Yuma counties is very pro- ductive and one can see many miles,
 'Tis beautiful broad expanse like men from the East who came West years ago and to-day they can count
 their dollars by the thousands.

HORSES KILLED BY TROLLEY. Three horses belonging to Elmer B. Disbrow of Greenfield Hill were struck by West bound trolley car on the Ash Creek bridge in Black Rock, late Thursday night. Two were killed out right and the other was so badly in- jured that it became necessary to kill it. The horses were purchased ir Bridgeport the day previous and were being led out of the city towards Black Rock when the accident occurred. Charles Grovenstein, who is employed by MT Disbrow, was leading the trio Creek bridge just as the midnight car bound for Black Rock came along and crashed into the animals from behind. The force of the car tossed one of the horses to the side of the roadway, maimed and carried another on the fen der almost across the bridge. The third horse was so severely injured that 1t became necessary to kill it lat CT. MT Disbrow was on the scene ear ly Friday morning with large truck and force of men and the work of clear
  structed one side of the roadway for several hours, was quickly executed The bodies of the dead animals strewn along the bridge presented a somewhat sickening spectacle to early morning pedestrians and teamsters who chanced to pass along the thorough fare The Consolidated Railway Co. will make good the loss.
