Sour Stomach.

This is a mild form of indigestion.
1t is usually brought on by eating too
rapidly or too much, or of food not
suited to your digestive organs. If
you will eat slowly, masticate your
food thoroughly, eat but little meat
and none at all for supper, you will
more than likely avoid the sour stom-
ach without taking any medicine what
ever. When you have sour stomach
take one of Chamberlain's Tablets to
aid digestion.

WINNESHIEK BUTTER WINS.

Buttermaker Be2dickson, of the
DEBORAH creamery did not send an
exhibit this year. We are thinking if
he did his per cent would be up to the
100 mark.
Mr.. Bakken, of Ridgeway, can we'll

it is getting to be a common thing
with him to win big prizes in the

A CARD TO THE PUBLIC.

This fall offers the greatest oppor-
tunity in my experience for giving
our customers unusual benefit on ac-
count of the many purchasing advan-
tages of this firm.
Last February when l was in New
York many manufacturers and max
ers of clothing were in doubt as to
the future values of woolens as times
with many of them were rather lit
| tie dull. At that time a number of
buyers who represented some of the
! largest clothing firms in the country
were with me securing the market for
| big values II suits and overcoats as
we'll as other wooden goods and as
we were on hand to buy in big guam
titles we were fortunate to find some
dealers who were ready to talk bust
ness to US on a cash basis. We took
advantage of the conditions and
bought very heavy and in this way
avoided the rise in prices resulting
from the enormous purchases made
by the government since the United
States entered the war. Some lines
of goods since that time have ad-
vanced from thirty to one hundred
anu My pei CClI. DIG SCiSC " AIN
is used extensively by clothiers. and
other cloth has advanced as high as
dollar and fifty cents a yard from
the original price, and other goods
which go into the manufacture of
suits and overcoats has advanced
equally as much. Our customers can
readily see the advantage which we
can give them on account of this ad-
vance purchase, and they can come to
this store and purchase their fall and
winter wants with the assurance on
our part that there is no serious adj
vance on anything that they buy here.
and that they can purchase what they
want at absolutely very reasonable
prices
Many items which are sold in stores
have gone "sky high" and are pre-
dicted to go still higher, but so long
as we have goods which We have pur-
chased at these cheaper prices they
will positively be sold on the cheap
price basis. We want to give our
customers this Tip" in stating that
thew can come 20 us and buy their
suits. oyercoats. mackinaws, sweaters.
underwear etc, at low prices when
these unusual times are taken into
consideration. We know absolutely
that we are all right in suggesting to
buy your, fall and winter supply just
as early rs possible as thousands of
manufacturers all over the country
predict a great scarcity of good quail
!ity merchandise.
Remember, we guarantee every
thing we sell, and no matter what it
is that you buy here if it isn't abso-
lutely satisfactory, or wSat you buy
from Us is not as we say il is. simply
return it and the money you paid Will
he cheerfu,ly refunded. We are in
business to do business. and even
though the goods we sell today can
not be replaced for the same price
as we sell them at, still We want our
customers TO know and feel that We
are here at their service, and what
ever we can do for them in the way
