Mrs. Jago’s Good Luck.
A few days ago R. M. Anderson,
postmaster at Jacksonport, received a
letter from an Eastern life insurance
company asking about the heirs of W.
A. Jago, who lived and died at that
place years ago. The letter stated
that lie held a policy in that company
at the time of his death, and they
wanted to pay it off. A search was
instituted for the policy, which was
finally found. The policy was issued
in 1867, and was thought to be worth
less. Mrs. Jago will not only draw
the $2,000 but interest upon this
amount from the time of her hus
band's death, or a total of over 34,000
To Avert Wrecks.
Carelessness is responsible for many
a railroad wreck and the same causes
are making human wrecks of sufferers
from Throat and Lung troubles. Hut
since the advent of Dr. King's New
Discovery for Consumption, Coughs
and Colds, t he worst cases can be cured
and hopeless resignation is no longer
necessary. Lois Cragg of Dorchester,
Mass., is one of many whose life was
saved by Dr. King's New Discovery.
This great remedy is guaranteed for all
Throat and Lung diseases by J. I.
Sturdivant. Price 50c, and $1.00. Trial

Still in Bad Company.

Will Investigate.
A remarkable case comes to light at
Elizabeth, W. Va. Aa old man there
by name of (1. W. Roberts had long
.suffered w ith incurable cancer. Every
body believed his case hopeless until
he used Electric Hitters and applied
Bucklen's Arnica Salve.The treatment
cured him completely. Now everybody
who knows of it is investigating Elect
ric Bitters. It exerts a mighty power
tc expel billiousness, kidney and liver
troubles and il \s a wonderful tonic for
rundown systems. Don't fail to try it.
Only 50c. Satisfaction guaranteed by
.J. I. Sturdivant.
A Gentle Hint.
A country correspondent for a
neighboring exchange wrote: “An
epidemic of remitting fever lias brok
en out in our midst." The editor, who
is always quick to see the funny side
of a filing, wrote below; “Hope it
may break out among all our.subscrib
ers we need the money.”
A Runaway Bicycle.
Terminated with an ugly cut on the
leg of J. B. Orner, Franklin Grove, ill.
It developed a stubborn ulcer unyield
ing to doctors and remedies for four
years. Then Bucklen's Arnica Salve
cured. It's just as good for Burns,
Scalds, Skin Eruptions and Biles. 25c,

Be Careful What You Say.
In speaking of a person’s faults,
Pray don't forget your own;
Remember those In houses glass
Should never throw a stone
It we have nothing else to do,
Rut talk of those who sin,
’Tis better we commence at borne,
And from that point begin.
We have no right to judge a man
Until he's fairly tried;
Should we not like his company,
We know the world is wide.
Some have faults—and who has not?—
The old as well as young;
We may, perhaps, for aught we know,
Have fifty to their one.
I'll tell you of a better plan,
And find it works full well;
To try my own defects to cure
Before of others tell;
And though I sometimes hope to he
No worse than some I know,
My own shortcomings bid me let
The faults of others go.
Then let us all, when we commence
To slander friend or foe,
Think of the harm one word may do
To those we little know;
Remember, curses sometimes, like
Our chickens, ‘*roost at home;”
Don’t speak of others’ faults until
We have none of our own.

Heavy eating is usually the first cause
of indigestion. Repeated attacks in

Kodol relieves the inflammation, pro-j
