Odd Phases of
Jamestown's S Fair.


from April 26 to Dec. /, this year, the
promoters of the enterprise set about
the task of making ii different from
similar projects of the past. They
were fortunate in receiving the hearty
support of the United States govern
ment for their plans and in obtaining
from large number of states appropri-
ations for buildings and exhibits. The
South American states responded in
most instances to the advances made
by representatives OF the exposition, so
that almost all will have some kind of
participation In the tercentennial.
The United States government, in
stead of making large appropriation
in aid Of the fair itself, set apart about
$1,500,000 to be nsed in the construc-
ton Of its own buildings at the exposi-
ton and in the erection Of two exten-
sive piers In front of the fair grounds.

Agriculture is now profession and
is gaining recognition as such. The
landowner is the true aristocrat; and
the intelligent farmer and breeder, such
as we have in this locality, is the high

fertile soil, like that of this section,
salubrious climate like ours, progress
sive farm population like that of this
part of the country and general dis

Need Old Age Be a Burden7

Lord Brampton, the famous criminal
judge of London, finds that living a
century has it's drawbacks. Having re-
tired from active duty, Lord Brampton,
who is ninety, pines for work. "Old
age has very few compensations," he
says Leisure is not pleasant. 1t
fills me with regret that am no longer
able to take an active part in the life
of the world"
This is new view, and somehow
gives the impression of being an honest
one. To man Who'll interested in
achievement, who has been used to do
ing, who loves to work and has been
pleased to consider himself factor in
human progress, idleness must be more
who loves effort more than rest be con-
demned to the torture of an inactive
life simply because hesis old? Glad
stone was great party leader almost
at the time of his death. Other exam
pies of octogenarians whose mobility
of mind did not suffer and whose eapac.
ity for work was not impaired are by no
means scarce. Why should those who
find most happiness: in doing be doomed
to unhappiness simply because of the
worlds false notion of age?
Man is not a slave to years. If he
does not fossilize, if he keeps as ready
to welcome the new truths as at the
first, if his spirit retains the sense ot
being young, why should the world
condemn him to inaction Just at the
time when his store of wisdom should
make his service and opinions of most
value? Men of that sort are more
efficient at eighty or even ninety than
some people are in the prime of life.

NOTABLE, MEDICAL DISCOVERY.
OF Special Value to Many Here in
Leon.

One of the most notable discoveries
and one that undoubtedly appeals more
than anything else to many people here
in Leon is the combination of the stom-
ach remedies in the Mi-o-na treatment.
This prescription has worked wonders
and there is now no excuse for anyone
suffering with indigestion or weak stom-
ach.
1t acts specifically upon the muscles
of the stomach and bowels, strengthen
ing and stimulating them so that they
readily take care of the food chat is eat
en-. 1t also increases the flow of gastric
juices, thus getting from the food the
nourishment that is necessary for health
and energy.
The symptoms of indigestion are num-
erous, such as distress after eating,
flatulence, heartburn, sick headaches,
dizziness and irritability. These are all
dispelled by few doses of Mi-o-na when
the trouble is recent, but just as surely
in long standing and chronic cases if
the treatment is followed for a reason
able length of time.
So positive are the good effects follow
ing the use of Mi-o-na that the remedy
is sold by L. P. Van Werden under an
absolute guarantee to refund the money
if it should fail to cure.

DOCTOR THE ITCH WHERE THE
ITCH is.
Don't Dose the Stomach to Cure
Eczema and Other Skin
Diseases.

Those afflicted with Eczema, psoriasis,
salt rheum, or other skin diseases of
similar nature, should never dose the
stomach to rid themselves of the terri
BILE itch. They should doctor the itch
where the itch is-cure the skin through
the skin, not through the stomach. =.
Eczema and other diseases of a kim
dred kind are skin diseases-not blood
diseases. Science has shown that
Eczema is caused by some germs in the
skin, and that the disease can be eradi-
Gated only by killing the germs.
DR.. Decatur d. Dennis was one. of the
first physicians, to.foiiow out the germ
theory in skin diseases.
Then he discovered that by mixing oil
Of wintergreen with other soothing
agents he had liquid prescription
which killed the germs and cured the
awful itch, leaving the skin white and
smooth. Since that time this d. D. D.
Prescription has been the standard
remedy for skin diseases, just as D. D. D
soap is the standard high grade skin
soap. y;
The first few drops Of D. D. d. give
instant relief from the terrible itch and
from the frightful burning Of the dis
|eased skin. So reliable is this d. D. D.
remedy that hundreds Of physicians
prescribe it. 1t is wash as thin as
water and as mild and as pure, which
is applied to the diseased portion Of the
skin.

Trimble county, Kentucky, writes:
"My little girls fingers were sore al
most to the bone from Eczema. used
part Of the sample bottle of D. d. d.
Prescription received from you and
now they are we'll. 1t is a wonderful

We carefully Investigated this D. D. D.

q long experience we are more than
convinced of it's wonderful merits.
