STORIA.
t The Kind You Have Always Bought
R. H. Jordan & Co., Offer Popular Nled
: : icines at Half Price.
R. R. Jordan & Co., the poular drug
gists, are making an offer that is
just like finding money, for they are
selling a regular 50 cent bottle bf
Dr. Howard's celebrated specific for
the cure, of constipation and dyspep
sia at half price. In addition to this
discount" they agree to return the
money to any purchaser whom the
specific does not cure. -
It is quite unusual to be able ; to
buy 50-cent pieces for a quarter, ibut
that ,1s what this offer really means,
for it is .only recently through the so
licitation of Druggists R. H. Jordan &
Co., that this medicine could e bought
for less than 50 cents. They urged the
proprietors to allow them to sell it at
this reduced price for : a litle while
ngreeih'g to sell a certain amount. The
result has justified their good judg
ment, for the sale has been something
remarkable.
Anyone who suffers with headache,
dyspepsia, dizziness, sour stomach,
specks before the eyes', or any liver
trouble, should take advantage of this
opportunity, for Dr. Howard's specific
will cure. But if by chance it should
not, R. H. Jordan & Co., ; will return
your money.
The specific is very pleasant to
take, coming in the form of small gran
ules, and there are sixty doses in every
package. It is especiall convenient
when traveling, and no one should
start on a jounrey without a bottle of
this reliable madicine.
Being only a dear, loving and tor-
giving , little wife, what could Mrs.
White Rabbit do but forgive her hus
band, who she knew loved her too dear
ly for his own peace of mind. So she
took his hands and said, with a mean-i
ing little smile for she felt she was,

you do not deserve my mercy, ana 1
should go right home to my parents,
but well, love is stronger than reason,
so I stay and forgive, and try to for
get." Then the poor fellow jumped, up and
embraced his beloved wife, and to
gether they went into their house.
The next morning (before breakfast
Mr. White Rabbit hurried to the tree
of- Mr. Bachelor Rabbit to- demand
from him apology to his wife, but, to
his surprise, he found the tree empty
and all Mr. Bachelor Rabbit's clothing
gone. -He had packed in the night and
set off for another settlement, feeing,
doubtless, that he could never endure
to meet Mrs. White Rabbit and suffer
her contempt -and scorn.
And from that day the couple of
White Rabbits lived in sweet peace
and happines, for Mr. White Rabbit
never again gavd himself over to the
temptings of the green-eyed monster
jealousy. '' j, .
