live until Spring. For four years I
existed on boiled milk, soda biscuits,
and doctors’ prescriptions. 1 could not
digest anything I ate; then I Picked up
one of your Almanacs and it happened
to be my life-saver. I bought a fifty-
cent bottle of KODOL and the benefit
I received from that bottle all the gold

machinist, and in three months I was

The News—No Pure Drug Cough
Cure Laws would be needed, if ali
Cough Cures were like Dr. Shoop’s
Cough Cure is—and-has been for 20
years. THe National Law now requires
that if any poisons enter into a cough
mixture, it must be printed on the label
or package. For this reason mothers,
and others, should insist on having Dr.
Shoop’s Cough Cure. No poison-marks
on Dr. Shoop’s labels—and none in the
medicine, else it must by law be on the
label. And it’s not only safe, but it is
said to be by those that know it best, a
truly remarkable cough remedy. Take
no chance. particularly with your chil-
dren. Insist on having Dr. Shoop’s
Cough: Cure. Compare carefully the
Dr. Shoop package with others and see.
No poison marks there! You can al-
ways be on the safe side by demanding

A Card from Our Old Friend Ross
. Lichty.
For some reason for which we are
not to blame, our friend Ross Lichty,
of Carleton, Neb., failed to get his copy
of last week’s issue of THE STAR, and as
he does not like to miss a single number
of the greatest paper on earth, he
writes as follows, under date of March
3d:
“What is wrong with the Twinkler,
this week? It has not shown up yet.
Hope nothing has gone wrong with the
editor or any of the rest of the dear
people in Salisbury.
“At present we are obliged to walk if
we want to go anywhere, on account of
the heavy sleet and ice.
“Land is changing hands at from $80
to $123 per acre. All other prices good
and everybody happy.
“J fear you are having another tussle
with the quinsy.
“We are all well, but miss our letter
(Tue Star) from home.”
Yours Respectfully,
Ross LicHTY.
The Way He Heard It.
A sailor who had been to a church
service, where he heard some fine mu-
sie, was afterward discanting upon an
anthem which had given him great
pleasure. g
A listening shipmate finally asked:
“1 say, Bill, what’s a hanthem?”
“What!” exclaimed Bill. “Do you
mean to say you don’t know what a
hanthem is?” z
“Not me.”
“Well, then, I'll tell yer. If I was to
tell yer, “Ere, Bill, give me that ’and-
spike,” that wouldn’t be a hanthem
But if I was to say, ‘Bill, Bill, Bill, give,
give, give me, that, Bill, give me, give
me that ’and, give me that ’and, ’and-
spike, spike, spike, Bill. give, me that,
that, ’and, ’andspike, ’and, ’anspike,
spike, spike, spike. Ah-men, ah-men.
Billgivemethat’andspike,spike. Ahmen!
why, that would be a hanthem !”
WHEN A MAN TELLS YOU it does
not pay to advertise, he is simply ad-
mitting that he is conducting a busi-
ness that is not worth advertising, a
business conducted by a man unfit to
do business, and a business which
to the
should be advertised for sale. tf
