Starbuck, Minn., April 13, 1901.
I have been in bed for four weeks with a Sprained
Back, caused by too heavy lifting. 1 have tried
almost everything to cure It. Seeing what Ham
lins Wizard Oil had done for others 1 tried a bottie
and in two days 1 was able to work.

The time for the reviews which precede the
final examinations has arrived and we urge up
on the parents the necessity of having the pupils
in their places for this final review. The tempt
ation seems to be to keep them out to help with
household tasks or to inn errands. As far as
possible this should be avoided. The teachers
desire their pupils to merit promotion but be
come discouraged when there is breaches in the
work which cannot be bridged over.

Best Cough Medicine For Children.
When you buy a cough remedy for
small children you waut one in which you
can place implicit confidence. You want
one that not only relieves but cures. You
want one that is unquestionally harmless.
You want one that is pleasant to lake.
Chamberlaiu's Cough Remedy meets all
of these conditions. There is nothing
so good for the colds incident to child
hood. It is also a certain preventative and
cure of croup, and there is no danger
whatever from whooping cough when it
is given. It has been used in many
epidemics of that disease with perfect
success. For sale by L. Taggart.

Mot Hers and
Daughters
Every woman who has a grown daughter knows
well the worry and anxiety which always conies at
that period of life when girlhood merges into
womanhood. Upon a girl's condition at this time
depends her future health, strength and happi
ness. Too much care can not be taken to see that
6he passes through this period safely.
AUNT DIN AH S OLD VIRGINIA
Herb Tea
A BOON TO WOMANKIND
is of the greatest assistance to nature in bringing
about the change which takes place, without dis
arranging the natural functions of the system. It
is a strengthening tonic. It will keep the roses in
a girl's cheeks and prevent that tendency to de
cl;ne which so often endangers her life at this
critical point in development.
This Herb Tea is likewise of corresponding
value and assistance to matrons and mothers at
the end of this period. Its use will at this time
prevent endless pain and worry. A woman will
enter the evening of life with scarcely the knowl
edge that the change has occurred. Many are the
thankful women who know the value of Aunt
Dinah s Old Virginia Herb Tea and are grateful
for the benefits derived from its use.
