My son, follow not in the footsteps of i the loafer, and make no example of him who is born tired, for, verily I say unto you, their business is overstocked, the seats are all taken and the whittling places are all occnpied. It is better to saw jvood at two bits a cord than to whittle in a loafing match and abuse the government. My son, while thou hast left in thy sknll the sense of a jaybird, break away from the cigarette habit, for lo! thy breath stinketh like a glue fac­ tory and thy whole appearance is lens in­ telligent than the stone dummy. Yes, thou art a cipher With the rim knocked off. ' A Great. Medicine. 'I have used Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy and find it to be a great medicine," says Mr. E. S. Phipps, of Poteau, Ark. "It cured me of bloody flux. I cannot speak too highly of it. ' This remedy always wins the good opinion, if not praise, or those who use it. The quick cures which it effects even in the most severe cases make it a favorite everywhere. For sale by Julia A. Story.

That which we know is little; that which we have a presentiment of is im­ mense; it is in this direction that the poet outruns the learned man. There is no pleasure in life if you dread going to the table to eat and can't rest at night ou account of indigestion. Henry Williams, of Boonville, Ind., says he suffered that way for years, till he commenced the use of Kodol Dyspep­ sia Cure, and adds, "Now I can eat any­ thing 1, like and all I want and sleep soundly every night." Kodol Dyspepsia Cure will digest what you eat. Julia A.-'. Story. .
