TRY IT YOURSELF
WHEN you receive your NATIONAL Vacuum Cleaner
you will be delightfully surprised. Just open the box, take
out the cleaner, and you are ready for work.
lest it on a nig that has been down for several months.
Run the NATIONAL over it lightly, back and forth,. The
bright path it leaves shows that the dust and dirt is being
drawn into the funnel-shaped dust chamber Ol course
you can't see it now. You are breathing pure, clean and
fresh air. Quite a new way to sweep and dust, you will
agree. Now when you have finished the rug, take the
NATIONAL, into the kitchen, spread a piece ot paper on 1
the floor, and empty the dust chamber Ihe handtuls of j
dust which drop out may be rolled up in the paper and'
throw into the tire.
You wouldn't be without the NATIONAL forten 1
times its price after you learn its wonderful labor-saving
features.
IT SAVES YOUR CARPETS
HOUSE-CLEANING in the old fashioned way, when
its sweeping, beating and brushing is hard on the furnish
ings as it is on the housewife It is the tearing up and
cleaning ot carpets that shortens their life. With the :
NATIONAL all carpets and rugs are left on the floor. The
powerful air suction draws all dust and dirt from the very |
floor beneath the floor coverings, without injury to the
most delicate fabrie.

Boy Badly Hurt
Walter C. Wooding, of Tamaqua,

i firing, stopped so suddenly that the
coupling holding the engine and
I tender together broke, throwing
him in front of the tender. Foster

! of Charles Afotter, the Philadelphia

; fell under a freight train near the
i scene of the wreck, having his left
j foot badly injured, one tot* being

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. The freak lived for several
hours, and is now preserved as a
specimen which will be presented
to the national museum at Wash
ington.

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.
