The New Nickle.

As an example of "punk'' workman
ship and design the new five cent
piece is entitled to the whole bakery.
While the idea is very American, the
designing and execution is decidedly
crude. In the first place the little
coin has the appearance of being an
embossed metal gunwad, punched
out by guess with very dull punch.
The figure of the buffalo or the great
American bison, is set deeply in a
bowl, and has the appearance of be-
ing very sick animal, indeed, as
perhaps he is. The Indian head is of
the same sort in both design and
workmanship. And the lettering on
the new coin is small, too small, and
one must look carefully to be certain
he has new five cent piece and not
a new style tobacco tag. No, we don't
like the new nickle, but don't under
stand that this means they will not
be accepted at this Office in payment
of your subscription. Bring EN-
along, Indian, Buffalo and all, and
for thirty of them you will receive
the Advocate Democrat for fifty two
weeks just the same Marysyille, Adj
vocate Democrat.

gradually been forced around TO

has forty-eight corns and nineteen
bunions- Some member of the Jason

turning from the drug store with a
patent corn remedy for Gwennie.
Gwennie thought it was stylish TO

the one he gave her for six She
has gotten her feet into such shape
that you can't tell whether she is

Health a Factor in Success.

The largest factor contributing to
a mans success is undoubtedly health.
1t has been observed that man is
seldom sick when his bowels are regu-
lar--he is never well when they are
constipated. For constipation you
will find nothing quite so good as
Chaimberlain's Tablets. They not only
move the bowels but improve the
appetite and strengthen the digestion.
They are sold by all dealers.

You have often heard the story of
the train and the dog. 1t relates that
fast express train was rushing
through the country when little
measly cur dog rushed out from a
farmhouse and barked at the train
and gave chase until he had to stop
from sheer exhaustion. Look around
in your community and. you can any
day see the train and the dog: The
poor little devil is barking and snap
ping his teeth while the train moves
swiftly and silently on its way. The
train in this case is the successful
man and the little dog is the jealous
and vindictive neighbor. My friend,
you always want TO try and be the
train. There is no money in being
the dog. You can see illustrations of
it every day in our community. Which
would you rather be-the train or the
dog? 1t is up to you. True, it is
possible that all of us can't be the
train, but none of us has to be the
dog. The train moves on and the
dog barks on. The train gets some
where eventually, but the dog never
does. Do you see the point? Osborne
