Six Animals in One Freak Pig j A freak pig born on the farm of William Smith, near Covington, Ga., has hoofs like a calf, ears like dog, and only one eye, which is set in the middle of the head, and which is as large as a human eye. Over the eye is an elephant's trunk. Where the nose ought to be, there is a snout like the horn of a rliino cerous.

STEP IN AND ASK ABOUT THEM. AJI answered at Vernon Hull's Large Store. HILLSGROVE, PA. "The Liver Pills act So Naturally and Easily." Such a statement, coming from the cashier of a bank, shows what confidence responsible people have in these pills. Mr. A. L. Wilson, after trying them wrote: ( "I have used Dr. Miles' Nerva and Liver Pllla and also your Antl-Paln Pills, on myself, with good results. Tha Liver Pllla act so naturally and ao easily that I scarcely know that I have taktn a pill. Frequently being troubled with headache I take an Antl-Paln Fill and gat Immediate relief In every casa." A. L. Wilson. Sparta. lIL Mr. Wilson was for a number of years cashier of the Flrat National Dank of Sparta. Dr. Miles' Nerve and Liver Pills are different from others. Many kinds of liver pills are "impossible" after one trial on account of their harshness. Dr. Miles' Nerve and Liver Pills do not act by sheer force but in an easy, natural way, with out griping or undue irritation. They are not habit forming. If tha first bottle falls to benaflt, your druggist will return the price. Ask him. MILES MEDICAL CO., Elkhart Ind. I
