CO D. TABLETS

These are dry tablets of medium size which you swallow whole. They con- tain all the vital properties peculiar to the finest Norwegian Cod Liver Oil which make it so, indispensable in the treatment of Consumption, Weak Lungs, Pulmonary Complaints, rNerv- ous Disorders, General Debility, La Grippe, Wasting Diseases and Ail- ments resulting from Malnutrition. In addition they contain the Hypophos- phites of Lime and Soda so valuable in the up-building of a run down system. They also contain that mildest of all laxatives, Licorice, in quantity suffic- tent to carry off any excess of oil of which the stomach cannot dispose.
 When you take C. o. D. TABLETS you are not distressed by an unpleasant "fishy" taste in your mouth and you never experience that unpleasant rising of gas in the throat which so often follows the taking of plain cod liver oil. c. 0. D. TABLETS never de- range digestion, never weaken the stomach, never cause nausea. 5Oc and $1.00 per bottle at your druggists, or by mail from

DESERTS THE WIDOW
At The ALTAR
A Wrginian Changes His Mind About
Marrying.

Richmond. Va. Especially Mrs.
Blanche Diggs, a pretty widow of 10
months, who was to have been mar
ried at night to r. c. Fueral, was
deserted at the altar, after the we'd
ding feast had been prepared and the
house decorated, and while the min
lister and the guests were in attend
ance.
The cozy little home on Clay
Street was decorated for the cere-
mony, the friends of the contracting
parties had assembled, the minister,
Rev. DR.. Hicks, of Manchester Bap-
tist Church, was on hand, and the
bride was preparing for her second
wedding, when a letter handed in by
a postman informed the young widow
that her ungallant lover had chang
ed his mind.
In his letter the bridegroom stated
that he had come to the conclusion
that it would not be best for him to
marry. 1t is learned that on Friday
morning Fueral packed his clothing
In a suitcase and left his boarding
house, since which time nothing has
been eard of him. He paid his
board y al before leaving.
Friday afternoon, prior to the date
set Tor the wedding, Mrs. Diggs went
TO Ashland to spend the day with her
sister, and consequently. she did not
Know Of her fiances disappearance

In time for the ceremony.
Three weeks ago j. H. Humphreys,
proprietor of the clearinghouse in
which Mrs. Diggs lived, inserted an
advertisement in a newspaper for a
young man to occupy a large front
room in a private family. Fueral
was attracted, was given board, and
there met the woman he was destin-
ed to court, win and afterward desert.
At first the couple saw little of
each other, but two weeks ago their
attachment became closer, and Thurs
day the announcement was made that
the wedding would take place Sat-
urday. Since the death of her hus-
band Mrs. Diggs has been employed
in large dry goods store, having
been thrown upon her own resources

Things That Hurt Rubber


Rubber boots or shoes should never
be dried by placing them near a
heater of any kind. If left near a
stove, register or radiator, the rubber
is liable to dry and crack. If left out
of doors in winter or in an extremely
cold place, they will freeze. Then.
when the warm foot is placed into
them and the rubbers are worn, they
will crack.
Oil, grease, milk or blood will
cause rubber to decay in a very short
time. Mud, barnyard dirt, or filth
OF any kind should never be allowed
to dry on rubbers, and no rubber is
strong enough to be absolute proof
against sharp edges, such as stiff
stubble, sharp rocks, broken glass,
etc.-New England Grocer.
