For sale t»y L Taggart. juiy Stories of tons of Klondike gold are intended t>> offset the tales of freezing and starvation. Our baby has been continually troubled with colic and cholera in fantum since his birth, and all that we could do for him did not seem to give him more than temporary relief, until we tried Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy. Since giving that remedy he has not been troubled. We want to give you this testimonial as an evidence ol our gratitude, not that you need it to advertise your meritorious remedy.— G. M.

Lackamp, Elston, Mo., writes: "One Minute Cough Cure saved the life of our little boy when nearly dead With croup." R. C. Dod son. Sly Alaskan improvements are chiefly in the direction of better means of escape. You can't cure dyspepsia by dieting. Eat good wholesome food and plenty of it. Kodol Dyspepsia Cure digests food without the aid of the stomach, and is made to CURE. R. C. Dodson. 8 The power of the press will soon be exerted in the production otnewcider. DeWitt's Littio Marly Risers benefit permanently. They lend general as sistance to nature, causing no pains or weakness, permanently curing consti pation and liver ailments. R. C.

Gun shot wounds and powder-hurns, cuts, bruises, sprains, wounds from rusty nails, insect stings and ivy pois ining. Beware of counterfeits. "De- Witt's" is SAFE and SUUE. R. C. Dod son. 81y Now comes the grasshopper, de manding his share. Thomas Rhoads, Centerfield, 0., writes: "I suffered irom piles seven or eight years. No remedy gave me relief until DeWitt's Witch Hazel Salve, less than a box of which permanently cured me." Soothing, healing, per fectly harmless. Beware of counter feits. R. C. Dodson. 81y It would be a great scheme to charter a train at autos for the Tenth. "What might have been"—if that little cough hadn't been neglected—is the sad reflection of thousands of con sumptives. One Minute Cough Cure cures coughs and colds. R. C. Dod son. Sly The tenth is now crosssing some of the wettest ports of the Pacific DeWitt's Little Early Risers expel from the system all poisonous accumu lations, regulate the stomach, bowels and liver, and purify the blood. They i drive away disease, dissipate melan- I choly, and give health and vigor for ! the daily routine. Do not gripe or i sicken. R. C. Dodson. Sly Mosquitoes seem to have decided in favor of a late campaign. A diseased stomach surely under mines health. It dulls the brain, kills energy, destroys the nervous system, and predisposes to insanity and fatal diseases. All dyspeptic troubles are quickly cured by Kodol Dyspepsia Cure. It has cured thousands of cases and is curing them every day. Its in gredients are such that it can't help curing. R. C. Dodson 81y Count Castellane has evidently been up against Monaco's bank. Diphtheria is in Los Angeles, Cal, arid a telegram is received by the I Cure U Co., Butler, Pa., ordering Arm strong's Diphtheria and Quinsy Drops to be sent at once by express.
