HOW TO SUCCEED
During the last few years, con
ditions in all lines of business, even
professional life, have changed so
completely that every man is waking
up to the fact that in order to win i
success he must specialize and learn
to do some one thing and do it well.
So it Is with any article that is sold j
to the people. It must have genuine
merit or no amount of advertising will |
maintain the demand for the article. j
For many years druggists have.
watched with much Interest the re- j
markable record maintained by Dr. j
Kilmer's Swamp-Root, the great Kid- j
ney. Liver and Bladder Remedy. From
the very beginning the proprietors had j
so much confidence in it that they in- |
vlted every one to test it.
It is a physician's prescription.
They have on file thousands of un- |
solicited letters received from former
sufferers who claim they are now en-
Joying good health as result of Its
use.
However. If you wish first to try a
sample bottle, address Dr. Kilmer &
Co., Blnghamton, N. Y., enclose ten
cents and mention this paper. They
will promptly forward you a sample i
bottle by parcel post.
Regular sizes for sale at all drug-,
gists—fifty cents and one dollar.—Ad- .

Mr*. R. Holt, Canton, Ohio, thought It
worth while to ride sixty miles to get a
bottle of Golf's Dope" Cough Syrup.
She says:
"I aw writing you juac to tell you how
much I think of your Cough Syrup. I wag
out of the city for two days and my two
year-old took a bad cold on her lungs. 1
tried two diSerent kind* but neither helped
her. As I could not get Golfs where 1
waa, I had to come back to my home town
to get God's and the result was she had
relief at once.
"The next time I go I'll take some GoS's

LIFE'S ROAD
Smoothed by Change of Food
t Worry is a b'lg load to carry and an
unnecessary one. When accompanied
by indigestion It certainly is cause for
the blues.
But the whole trouble may be easily
thrown off and life's road be made
easy and comfortable by proper eat
ing and the cultivation of good cheer.
Read what a Troy woman says:
"Two years ago I made the ac
quaintance of Grape-Nuts and have
used the food once a day and some
times twice, ever since.
"At the time I began to use it life
was a burden. I was for years af
flicted with bilious sick headache,
caused by indigestion, and nothing
seemed to relieve me.
"The trouble became so severe I
had to leave my work for days at a
| time.
"My nerves were In such a state I
could not sleep and the doctor said I
was on the verge of nervous prostra
tion. I saw an adv. concerning Grape-
Nuts and bought a package for trial.
"What Grape-Nuts has done for me
is certainly marvelous. I can now
. sleep like a child, am entirely free
from the old trouble and have not had
a headache in over a year. I feel like
a new rerson. I have recommended
It to others. One man I knew ate
principally Grape-Nuts, while working
on the ice all winter and said he never
felt better In his life."
