Pills for Stomach and Liver disorders.
I suffered from a Torpid Liver, r.nd Dys

was yellow, and my tongue coated. I
had no appetite, suffered from Head

SENTHEL MD BEPHBLICM,
One dollar a year in advance.
One dollar and fifty cents if not J
paid within three weeks after
time of subscription.
After the children have learn
ed to read, the greatest educa
tor is the newspaper. Every
man should do justice to his
family by subscribing for a pub
lic journal.
Never in the history of news
papers has the subscrip'ion
price been so low. Subscribe
for the Sentinel and Repcbli
can, it gives nearly twice as
much reading as any one of the
other papers in Juniata Its re
ports of all important home
news and enterprises is full and
within the period of a year its
variety of reading matter com
prehends within its scope al
most every topic.
You should not be without a
county paper if it cost you six
or seven dollars a year.
In this day and generation it
amounts almost to a wrong
to one's self and family to deny
themselves the advantage of
a good home paper. There are
more than a thousand and one
things during the passage of a
year that interest and some
times directly benefit us, that
appear in the home pajier but
like the rain, sunshine and air,
that we are so familiar with,
we do not appreciate as they
! merit
There are people who do not
take a Lome paper, but they
are not representative people.
To be sure this is a free coun
try and people can do as they
pleas so long as they do not
trespass on the rights of their
neighbors, but the man who
does not take his county paper
is like the man who has a place
that he calls home when his de
sires are outside of its doors, his
home is a misnomer.
"It is all right' ' if you de
sire a city pajcr to snbscribe
for one, or if you desire to have
one from a half dozen cities, it
is no one's business but vour
own if you pay for them, but
first of all, subscribe for our
county paper and then look
abroad.
After having subscribed for
the Sentinel and Republican
you are certain in your secure-
ment of the county paper that
gives you a larger quantity and
greater variety of reading mat
ter than is presented by other
journals published in Juniata
county.
As a medium for advertising
the Sentinel and Keitblican is
number one. !
!
Its job department is not as '
complete as the job. offices in;
Philadelphia or iew York noj
more than its newspaper depart- j
ment is like the department of i
a Philadelphia or New Yorkj
daily, but the job department is
ample and prices are down to
city prices. We'll print you a
nice quarter sheet bill for one
dollar, a half sheet bill for one
dollar and a half, and a whole
sheet bill for three dollars.
Mention it to your neighbor
that they may do well to sub
scribe for the Sentinel and Re
publican, and send one dollar
in advance to pay for one year's
subscription, and when you
have job printing to do, or de
sire to advertise, or desire to
have sale bills printed send in
the order and it will be executed.
