cine It is," says Mr.. T. l.. Bostier.
well-known farmer Of this place. Mr..
Bostier has passed his three-score-and-
tenth year, but declares his health
still is good, "and I can say Black
Draught did its part"
Where there is a lot of malaria,
liver medicine is a necessity, and
have never found one better than
Black-Draught," continues the Okla
homan. at is one that know to be
reliable. I sure use 1t for the liver,
stomach, constipation. indigestion, and
Il has done me world Of good. We
use it for the family, and 1t gives
satisfaction.
Most trouble, or sickness, comes
from the liver, and II taken In time
can be avoided. That Is why ! use
Black-Draught as I do. I am much
pleased with results obtained"
Thedford's Black-Draught is purely
vegetable. II acts on the bowels, gent.
ly stimulating the liver, and helps In
crease the normal flow OF bile into the
intestines. 1t assists In the digestion
of food, and relieves constipation In
prompt and natural way.

sumo vast quantities of lumber and
it would surprise many of those con

The Salt Lick Lumber Co., which !
raS established in 1902 is numbered
among the largest. best known and
most successful enterprises of its
kind in eastern Kentucky. This con
Germ manufactures hardwood floor
ing, cciing, siding and other hard

saw mill which has capacity of
80, 900 feet of lumber a day and their
planning mill is modern in equipment
and construction. When the plant is
in full operation it employs about
100 men and is the largest employer
of labor in Bath county, paying out
approximately $60,0O0 year in
wages. Most of the employees of the
concern own their own homes and
the enterprise which is located about
three fourths of mile east of Salt
Lick is on five-a acre tract of land
and has never had any strikes
fires since its inception. The Salt
Lick Lumber Co, ships about g.
0O0, 900 feet of flooring a year which
is made of oak, beech and maple
