DYSPEPTIC PHILOSOPHY

It's when a fellow is full to the
brim that he Is apt to talk through
his hat.
If man IL really as young as he
feels = seems pity he doesn't always
look it.
We are tcld that kind words never
die. At any rste they are never talked
to death
A mnn sometimes fails because h
isn't quite up to things when they a
up to him.
WHY He WAS SUCCESSFUL
Some said because he had sand
Some, because he had ginger
Some, because of an iron constIlu
ton
Some, because of his braZen i'm
pudence.
Some said he was a man OF finer
clay.
Some called him the salt OF the
earth.
Some said he was true steel
And some said it was only because
of his fathers tin.-Life.

"The Liver Pills act
So Naturally and
Easily"

Such a statement, coming from
the cashier of a bank, shows what
confidence responsible people have
in these pills. Mr.. A. L. Wilson
after trying them wrote:
II have used DR.. Miles Nerve
and Liver Pills and also your
Anti-Pain Pills, on myself with
good results. The Liver Pills
act so naturally and so easily
that | scarcely know that !
have taken a pill. Frequently
being troubled with headache I
take an Anti-Pain Pill and get
immediate relief in every case"
A. L. Wilson, Sparta, Ill.
Mr.. Wilson was for a number
of years cashier Of the First
National Bank Of Sparta.
