Spoiled Her Beauty.
Harriet Howard, of 209 \V. 34th St.,
New York, at onetime had her beauty
spoiled with skin trouble. She writes:
"I had Salt Rheum or Eczema for years,
but nothing would cure it until I used
Bucklen's Arnica Salve." A quick and
sure healer for cuts, burns and sores.

Is It Right.
Is it right that a property-owner should
l.jse 84.20 to let a dealer make 50 cents?
A dealer makes more on fourteen gallons
of ready for use paint, at 81.50 per gal
-1 jn, than our agent does on eight gallons
of L.it M. paint and six gallons of lio-
Bied oil, which make fourteen gallons of
the best paint in the world, at 81.20 per
gallon; the property-owner loses iust
84.20. Is it right?
It only requires 4 gallons of L. k M.,
and 3 gallons linseed oil to paint a mod
erate sized house.

if entirely out of the system. It is much
to he preferred to Quinine, having none
of this drug's bad after-effectes. E. S.
Munday, of Tex., writes: "My brother

Odd Notice in Prominent Southern
Paper of Interest to Emporium
Residents.
One of the best known newspapers in
the South is the "Guide" of Dunn, N.
C. Its publisher, J. P. Pitman, sends
us the following clipping with request to
publish,
"Found.—by the editor of the Guide,
a bottle of Hyomei, the wonderful treat
ment that cures catarrh without stomach
dosing. We can speak in highest praise
of its remarkable power to cure and re
lieve catarrh of the head and throat.
This mention is Grade not as an adver
tisement but in the interest of those who
suffer the torture of that terrible disease,
catarrh."
In sending the clipping, Mr. Pitman
wrote the following letter:
"I enclose a little piece from my
paper, issued to-day. You will see from
this that I desire to push the selling ot
Hyoniei as far as possible. 1 am using
it in my own family, and find that it
gives the desired relief, so that I take
pleasuee in spreading far and near the
knowledge of the sure relief for catarrh."
L. Taggart, in preparation for the Ca
tariha! troubles of this season of the year,
has ordered a large stock of Ilyomei,
and sells it under guarantee to refund the
money if it does not relieve. The com
plete outfit costs but SI, and extra bot
tles can be obtained lor 50 cents. Ask
him to show the strong guarantee under
which he sells it. This remarkable rem
edy medicates the air you breathe, sooth
iug and healing the mucous membrane of
the air passages, and making a complete
cure of the worst case of catarrh.
The reason that coughs and colds pro
duce constipation and weaken the lungs
is because they interfere with all digest
ion. That new discovery known as Ken
nedy's Laxative Honey and Tar cures all
Coughs, Croup, Whooping Cough and
assists in expelling colds from the system
by gently moving the bowels. It is
pleasant to take and contains no opiates,
j Sold by It. C. Dodson.
A Grim Tragedy.
Is daily enacted by thousands of homes
as Death claims, to each one, anothe
i victim of Consumption or Pneumonia
j But When Coughs [and colds are prop
| erly treated, the tragedy is averted. F.
G. Huntley, of Oaklandon, Ind., writes:
I "My wife had the consumption, and
! three doctors gave her up. Finally she
j took Dr. King's New Discovery for Con
! sumption. Coughs and Colds, which
j cured her, and to-day she is well and
I strong. It kills the germs of all dis
! case. One dose relieves. Guaranteed

Bpeedy Relief.
A salve that heals without a scar is
De Witt's Witch Hazel Salve. No rem
edy effects such speedy relief. It draws
out inflammation, soothes, cools and

Witt's is the only genuine Witch Ilazel

No More Stomach Troubles.
All stomach trouble is removed by the
use of Kodol Dyspepsia Cure. It gives
the stomach perfect rest by digesting
what you eat without the stomach's aid.
The food builds up the body, the rest
restores the stomach to health. You
don't have to diet yourself when taking
Kodol Dyspepsia Cure. J. D. Erskine,
of Allenville, Mich., says,"l suffered
Heartburn and Stomach trouble for some
time. My sister-in-law has had the same
trouble and was not able to eat for six
weeks. She lived entirely on warm
water. After taking two bottles of
Kodol Dyspepsia Cure she was entirely
cured. She now eats heartily and is in
good health. lam glad to say Kodol j
gave me instant relief." Sold by 11. C.
Dodson.

ach. Their action upon the system is
mild, pleasaut and harmless. Sold by
It. C. Dodson.
