After two months of remarkable
gales, Bitner and Murray, the enter-
prising druggists, say that their plan
of selling at half price the regular 50
cent size of Dr. Howard's specific for
the cure of constipation and dyspepsia,
and guaranteeing to refund the money
ifit does not cure, has been the great-
est success they have ever known,
They have sold hundreds of bottles
of the specific; and as yet have not
had one returned, although they stand
ready at any time to refund the
money should any customer be
dissatisfied.
Anyone suffering with dyspepsia,
constipation, liver trouble, headaches,
dizziness, costed tongue, or the gener-
al tired feeling caused by inactive
liver and bowls or disordered digestion,
should take advantage of Bitner and
Murray's new departure and buy a
bottle of Dr. Howard's specific at half
price, with their personal guarantee to
refund the money if it does not cure

munity. The farm has an acreage of
