Kodol prevents Dyspepsia, by effectually helping Nature to Relieve Indigestion. But don't trifle with Indigestion. A great many people who have trifled with Indigestion, have been sorry for it —when nervous or chronic dyspepsia resulted, and they have not been able to cure it. Use Kodol and prevent having Dyspepsia. Everyone is subject to indiges tion. Stomach derangement follows stomach abuse, just as naturally and Just as surely as a sound and healthy stomach results upon the taking of Kodol. When you experience sourness of stomach, belching of gas and nauseating fluid, bloated sensation, gnawing pain in the pit of the stomach, heart burn (so-called), ) diarrhoea, headaches, dullness or j chronic tired feeling—you need Ko dol. And then the quicker you take Kodol —the better. Eat what you want, let Kodol digest it. Ordinary pepsin "dyspepsia tab lets," physics, etc., are not likely to be of much benefit to you, in dlgestfre ailments. Pepsin is only Sold by W. S. Mart CASTOR IA for Infants and Children.

Nature and Kodol will always cure a Eick stomach—but In order to be cured, the stomach must rest. That is what Kodol does—rests the stomach, while the stomach gets well. Just as simple as A, B, C.

ADVERTISING 1 Tbe Value of the Local News i As An Advertising I Medium (Contii vet! from last wee] ) THE MERCHANTS DUTY. The business men of a com _ munity mu?t first be educated to ! sea why they should advertise. The merchant who sees no profit in advertising of course will use ! printers ink very sparingly. Then every advertiser should eciucatec ? to the methods of successful advertising. Such ad vertisements as 4 watch this Space." or "too busy to write an ad" is simply space wasted. The editor, in preparing his copy for the compositor, is supposed to weigh carefully every assertion, knd is supposed to such language as will interest and instruct his readers. The same should be true of the advertiser. The first lesson to be learned about successful ad vertising is to make only such statements as the facta will jus tify. Many merchants, for in stance, will advertise their goods below cost when, infact, they are selling at a handsome profit. Such advertising soon drives the better class of trade away. Many merchant hold to the theory of the late B. T. Barnum, that "the people like to be joked," and advertise accordingly. This theory was possibly true in Barnum's day, but the people are becoming more careful and as a result false-hooasare detected in advertismerts and the advertiser is branded as an "undesirable citizen." Besides, the merchant v ho makes only such statements as are warranted by the facts soon gains the confidence of the people which is the most valuable asset of the -business man. FREQUENT CHANGES NECESSARY. The advertiser should never allow the same matter to stand eontinously in his ads. There is no more reason for running the same ad continously i week after week than to publish a paper without changing its con- tents each week. ADS. MUST BE NEWSY. Every aevertisement should ] contain useful information about the goods advertised. The simple announcement that ] a certain line of goods are i handled by so and so is worth but little as our advertisement The people must be impressed with the qual'ty of the goods, the reasonableness of the price or the advantages in buying from : the advertiser in preference to others. Considering what crude lifeless affairs some advertise ments are, do you wonder they are never read, particularly if the same matter is allowed to stand for months at a time. (Continued next week.) A young man went to a preach er to get married, and the preach er ask "Howold are you, John?" He replied, "I am half as old as my father. He is two years older than my mother. My eldest sister is two years older than my youngest sister. 74y youngest sister is four years older than my youngestfcrother." "How old are the> altogether?', asked the preacher. The young man replied that the five child ren are seventeen years older than his father and mother. How old is John and each of the children and his father and mother?— Exchange. Well, if the young man isn't married un til the preachor gets his age figured out, Methuselah would be a kid compared to him YOURSELF THE QUESTION Why not use Chamberlain's Liniment when you have rheumatism? We feel sure that the result will be prompt and satisfactory. It has cured others, why not you? Try it. It costs but a trifle Piice 25 cents; large size, SO cents. For sale by W. S. Martin & Co. An Essay On bachelors. Bachelors are cultivated in all c ties. They live in the bachelor ' : partments d bungalows. Trey can he Men durinje the day |in countirg houses and on the j golf 1 r.ks and in the evening at di nner parties and poker games. > Bachelors at one time weie easily caught with almost any : kind of bait, and swallowed b&it s I hook, sinker and all, often at the first throw. Now however, they . are becoming much more wary ! and hide in the depth of their bachelor apartments or in the deep poolrooms from which they cannot be lured. They are gregarious in their habits running in schools,- but they stand by each other and It is very unusual to find a solitary one. Occassionally, however a more foolish and over confident specimen will poke his nose into a summer resort, when he is promptly landed. Bachelors are in reality the bulwark of the nation. By not getting married they do not raise families. Families, as * e know, are constantly consuming our natural resources. Bachelors are therefore really providing more natural resources for the Tew. Their conduct, it will be seen, is thus quite unselfish. . - Yhy Did You Marry. An editor sent out circular let ters to a number of married men, and asked them why they married. Here are some of the answers: That's the same fool question my friends ask me. Because I did not have the experience I now have. 1 yearned for company now we have it all the time. I married to get even with her mother but I never have. That's what I have been try ing eleven years to find out. I thought it would be cheaper than a breach of promise suit. Because Sara told me that five others had proposed to her. I wanted a companion of the opposite sex. She is still op posite. The old man was going to give me his foot, so I took the daugh ter's hand. Because I asked her to have me and she said she would. I think she got me. Because 1 thought she was one among a thousand; now I think she is a thousand among one. I was lonely and melancholy and wanted some one to make me lively. She makes it very lively. Admiral Sperry declares that the cruise of the big fleet has been successful from every point of view. It is the greatest mov ing-picture show old Neptune has ever witnessed. SAVE MONEY BY BUYING CHAM BERLAIN'S COUGH REMEDY. You will pay Just as much for a bot tle of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy as for any of the other cough medicine but you save money in buying it, The saving is in what you get n«t what you pay, The sure to cure you quality is in every bottle of this remedy and you get good results when you take it, Neglected colds often develop serious conditions and when you buy a cough medicine you want to be sure you are getting one that will cure your cold, Chamberlain's Cough Remedy always cures, Price 25 and 50 cents a bottle, For sale by W, S, Martin & Co, When President Roosevelt shall surrender the keys to his successor there will be no un finished business on the desk or in any of the pigeon holes.
