Chamberlain's Couch Heiuedy the Best and Most Popular. "Mothers buy it for croupy children, railroad men buy it for severe coughs and elderly people buy it for la grippe," says Moore Bros., Eldon, Iowa. "We sell more of Chamberlain's Cough Rem­ edy than any other kind. It seems to have taken the lead over several other good brands^" There is no question but this medicine is the beet that can be procured for coughs and colds, whether it be a child or an adult that is afflicted. It always cures and cures quickly. Sold by all druggists. Accidental Shooting. While out bunting with a companion early Sunday morning at Mudgett's -Lake, Dan Baker of Chicago was acci­ dentally shot, the charge of shot pene­ trating his head, neck and body. Dr. D. G. Wells was at once called and he dressed the wounds and made the suf­ ferer as comfortable as possible. About Rheumatism. There are few diseases that inflict more torture than rheumatism and there is probably no disease for which such a varied and'useless lot of remedies have been suggested. To say that it can be cured is, therefore, a bold statement to make, but Chamberlain's Pain Balm which enjoys an extensive sale, has met with great success in the treatment of this disease. One application of Pain Balm will relieve the pain, and hun dreds of sufferers have testified to per­ manent cures by its use. Why suffer when Pain Balm affords such quick relief and costs but a trifle? For sale by all druggists.

Wine of Cardui Cured Her. 213 South Prior Street, ATLANTA, GA., March 21,1908. I suffered for four months with I extreme nervousness and lassitude. I had a sinking feeling in my I stomach which no medicine seemed to relieve, and losing my appetite I became weak and lost my vital­ ity. In three weeks I lost fourteen pounds of flesh and felt that I must find speedy relief to regain my I health. Having heard Wine of Cardui praised by several of my | friends, I sent for a bottle and' certainly very pleased with the | results. Within three days my j appetite returned and my stomach { troubled me no more. I could digest my food without difficulty and the nervousness gradually diminished. Nature performed her functions without difficulty and I am once more a happy and well woman. OLIVE JOSEPH, Atlanta Friday Right Clmh. ] Secure a Dollar Bottle of I Wine of Cardui Today.
