Mr. A. S. Eaton of Hillsboro, O., j
Bays: “I have used Paracamph for !
Rheumatism in the joints of my bands |
with good results—getting more relief
than from any other remedy. My
case is of many years standing and I
was not expecting a cure from one
bottle but it has done more for me
than anything I have ever used.”
Paracamph is a combination of cam
phor and cooling, soothing, healing
oils. When applied, it opens the pores,
removes the congestion and draws out
all soreness, fever and inflammation.
Try it for Neuralgia, Rheumatic
Swellings, Sore Feet, Colds in the
Head, Catarrh, Sore Throat or Chest.
If it fails to give satisfaction your
money will be refunded. Paracamph
is clean, safe and sure. Every bottle
gauranteed. Trial size 25c.; family

tried Paracamph we will send you a trial
size free. Write to-day. The Paracamph

INSTANCE OF INCREASE
IN LAND VALUES.
i
—
W. E. Talley has recently
; bought from Jas. P. Gray of
| Newbern. Tenn.. 1900 acres of
I land lying east of Marmaduke,
the consideration being $24,000,
says the Paragould Soliphone.
Mr. Gray has owned this land
only a few years and paid $6,600
for it. This is another striking
evidence of the rapid increase in
land values in Greene county.
This was part of the Mathis &
Whitaker land; perhaps it cost
them fifty cents an acre twenty
or twenty-five years ago.
Mr. Talley owns other lands
adjoining the late purchase,
about 5,000 acres in one body.

Miss Lillian Shattuck makes a

interpreted Don Bolero to a fin

while Ed Weston as “Maras

“Mourzouk” and Will Burgess
as “Pedro” played equally ac

SHERLOCK HOLMES AGAIN.
A New Series of Detective Sto

Conan Doyle’s detective sto
ries, with the marvelous Sher
lock Holmes as their hero, have
achieved the greatest success of
recent years. Appreciating this
fact, the publisher of Collier’s
Weekly, New York, induced Mr.
Doyle to write a final series of
the great detective’s adventures.
Repeated refusals were followed
by increased inducements, and
finally Mr. Doyle agreed to write
thirteen stories for $45,000, or
abouf 60 cents a word. The en

Brain
W orKers.
Brain workers suffer from
headache because they over-tax
and exhaust the brain nerves.
Tired, irritated, turbulent
brain nerves throb and ache;
this weakens the brain power,
and robs the memory.
Dr. Miles’ Anti-Pain Pills
bring tranquility to the ex
cited nerves and stop the pain.
If not relieved, this nerve
| disturbance is frequently ex
tended to the stomach, causing
nausea, vomiting—sick head
ache.
Dr. Miles’ Anti-Pain Pills
are convenient to take—just a
little tablet, that in a few mo
ments relieves the pain; they
leave no disagreeable after
effects, as they contain no
opium, morphine, cocaine or
chloral in any form.
“From personal experience X can
testify that Dr. Miles' Anti-Pain Pills
1 are a most excellent remedy for head
ache and neuralgia. I have been a
great sufferer from both diseases for
the past three years. A friend who
1 had also suffered from neuralgia
handed me some of the Anti-Pain
Pills. I took them and they gave me
! almost Instant relief. Since then I
1 have a package at home, and another
at the office, and they never fail to
! relieve me.” R. V MEGARY,

Dr. Miles' Anti-Pain Pills are sold by
your druggist, who will guarantee that
the fipst package will benefit. If It
fails he will return your money.
