Cures Skin Diseases

For half n century Heiskells Ointment has
been used in all cases OF skin disease with
most gratifying results. Many have become
entirely cured who had suffered untold pain
and annoyance for years. One man in New
Baltimore, Pa, writes that 1t cured him when
he was raw all over. A lady in Philadelphia
cured case OF tetter OF ak years atanding
In fourteen days. while n man In Allentown.
Pa, cured his case OF eczema that had trou-
bled him for eleven years with less than two
boxesoftho ointment. These and hundreds
of others have found that Heiskelrs oint.
ment In worth more than its weight in gold.

There are many varieties of skin diseases
with confusing titles, but they are all suscep-

Deception Practiced.

Those who would not be defrauded
by sharpers who use the advertising
columns OF the city papers would do
well in carefully considering each
proposition which attracts their atten-
tion. Remember that those who ad-
vertise are not philanthropists. They
are out after the dollars, and have
nothing to give away, unless 1t is in
exchange for money. The concern
that offers an exceptional bargain
needs to be studied well before in
vestment be made. Everything has
a legitimate value. and is worth SO
much in the markets of the world
When it is offered at less than its
apparent real value, look out for fraud
and deception. Generally every good
town affords the buyer a chance to
obtain whatever he requires, and at
price consistent with quality.
Those who patronize home stores are
less likely to be deceived.

John Brink prided himself on having
he largest general store in the county.
IF man wishes IL. and 1t Is made, I

and the motto which capped all his ad-
gertisemeuts in The newspapers.

gested the eager clerk.

stranger; I'm Just a little short this

Trust "Graft."

One of the practices of the trusts in
the marketing of their products, is
the prize schemes. In order to induce
the consumers to use their various
brands of goods, attractive offers are
made to exchange different articles
for certificates and coupons. But it
is always intended that the consum-
ers pay the freight" Generally
where premiums are offered with
goods, the packages are short in
weight, or a few cents more charged
than goods of like kind sell for. Thus
it can be seen how the premiums
given are paid for by the consumer,
and he pays a high price for the
prizes he draws. Goods that are
given away with purchases cost
money. Their cost does not come out
of the pockets of the manufacturers,
but out of the purses of the people
who use the goods. II one desires to
buy sugar, he does not care to pay
for the scoop or shovel He wants
sugar, and at the lowest price con-
sistent. He knows that il he takes
the scoop or the shovel some one
pays the bill Various systems of
premium giving have been devised.
Some call for certain number of
coupons of some sort, and SO much
cash, or some article just for the
coupons alone. Where cash is re-
quired along with coupons there is
apparently an additional profit in the
deal aside from that made on the
goods with which coupons are given.
1t is we'll to buy goods on their merits
alone. Buy what you want and at
the right price, and you will be ahead
of the premium plan.
