The instrument of Quality
SONORA

A few points to be considered
before buying a talking machine.
Sonora plays all disc records
without any expensive attachment
OF any kind. The importance and
desirability of this cannot be over
emphasized.
No changing of tubei is neces-
sary.
The tone is controlled at its
source, the only proper place. No
muffled tone to the Sonora.
The Sonora motor is the SUI
preme motor Of the monograph
world and plays many times as
long as other machines sold at the
same price.
The Sonora won the gold medal
at the San Francisco Exposition
in competition with all other makes
for tone.
The Sonora's motor is a Swiss
make motor and runs silent.

CHOLERA MORBUS

This is a very painful and dan-
gerous disease. In almost every
neighborhood some one has died
from it before medicine could be
obtained or a physician summoned.
The right way is to have a bottle
of Chamberlain Collie and Diar
rhoe Remedy in the house so as to
be prepared for it. Mrs. Charles
Enyeart, Huntington, Ind, writes:
