About $38,000,000 worth of
jewels were imported into this
country last year, but the high cost
of living does not bother some
people.
I'r. Wn Sadler, author of "The Cause
and Cure of Colds," says that common
colds should be taken seriously, espec
ially when they "hang on." Foley's
Honey and Tar Compound is a reliable
household medicine for coughs and
colds, equally cllective for cluldirn and
for giowu persons. Take it whin you
feel a cold com in tr on. It will avert
danger of serious ri 'nils and cure quick

QUESTION CLEARED UP.
News Readers Can No Longer
Doubt the Evidence.
Again and again we have read
of strangers in distant towns w ho
have been cured by this or that
medicine. But Weldon's perti
nent question has always been
"Has anyone herein WeUlon been
cured?" The word of a stranger
living a hundred miles away may
be true, but it cannot have the
same weight with us as the word
of our own citizens, whom we
know and respect, and whose evi
dence we can so easily prove.
J. H. Waller, Sixth and Llm
streets, Weldon, N. C, says: "1
consider Doan's Kidney Pills a
very valuable kidney medicine and
do not hesitate to give them my
endorsement. A kidney weakness
caused me much annoyance, and
w hen I had the good fortune to hear
of Doan's Kidney Pills, I procured
a supply at Cohen's Drug Store.
1 hey relieved me promptly and I
endorse them in return for the im
provement they made."
