YOUR DRUGGIST
DLL PROTECT YOU.
We know that many people hesitate t*
st>end their money for medicines adver
tised in their local papers, because they
are not positive whether they get .some
thing good or something worthless.
Many people hesitate to try new medi
cines, and they are right in so doing.
Every man and woman should be careful
what they use in the way of medicine. For
these reasons we make arrangements with
your druggist to protect you on every
bottle of Paracamph. We know from act
ual experience and from the unquestion
abl testimony of thousands of America’i
best people that Paracamph will do exact
ly what we claim for it, so when we tell
you that Paracamph is a quick relief an4
cures Rheumatism, Neuralgia, Sore Feet,
Piles, Skin Diseases, Catarrh, Sore Throat
Sore Lungs, Croup and all forms of swell
ings and Inflammations, we know that it
will do exactly what we claim. If it fails in
any case when used as directed, your drug
gist the man you know and the man you
have confidence in will refund your money.
So why experiment with the various rem
edies on the market, when you buy Para
camph on a guarantee like this? We belie vi
that you are honest and believe that you
will treat us right. We know' if you do that
you will be pleased with Paracamph. II

“I was afflicted with heart trouble for
three years. I would be apparently all
right, and without a moment’s warning
would fall as though shot. The attacks
were frequent, and a terrible dread pos
sessed me, as I never knew when or
where, nor under what conditions I
would be attacked, and whether I would
survive them. I consulted and was
treated by some of the most eminent
Shysiclans of the state. Not finding re
ef from this source, I began taking
Dr. Miles4 New Heart Cure, and began
to improve at once. I used ten bottle*,
which entirely cured me, as I have not
had an attack for five years.”—MRS.

INDEPENDENT’S
BABY CONTEST.
Here is the proposition and the
rules governing the contest:
There is a handsome $25.00
solid gold locket with diamond
setting and solid gold chain, on
display at the Palace Jewelry
store, to be given away Decem
ber 24th, 1904, to the baby boy
or girl under two years of age, j
who wins the highest number of
votes as the prettiest and sweet
est baby. Now the baby that is
not pretty is surely sweet, and
if the wee tot be a little cross at
times, beauty must offset this
badness. Fond parents at least
are expected to think their ba
bies are both sweet and beauti
ful, and so they do. But to set
tle once for all the claims of the
under two, and put at rest this
rivalry of mothers and fathers,
the Independent has inaugurated
a contest that is to be determined
by that cherished right, popular
ballot, and in accordance with
the following rules:
BABY PRIZE CONTEST RULES.
First—No baby that has reach
ed the age of two years Nov. 1,

nor shall any employe or party
connected with this paper be eli
gible to vote.
Second—Every issue of the
Daily and Weekly Independent

j subscription paid for between
these dates a coupon good for ten
i votes will be issued, but no cou
pons will be issued for sums less
than $1.00. Coupons will not be
sold, and will only be issued for
job, ad and subscrpition busi
ness, but extra copies of the In
dependent at 2 cents per copy,
each containing one ballot, will
be sold at this office.
Third—All votes must be sent
to this office and will be de
posited in a lock box. to be opened
at 8 o’clock each publication day
and counted. The daily issue of
that afternoon will contain the
total of the several candidates
and the public will thus be kept
informed of the voting each day.
Fourth—A committee of three
good business men will be select
ed to canvass the ballots the
morning of Dec. 24 and announce
the winner. All ballots must be
deposited at this office by 11 a.

KEYSTONE OF
Kimball Piano
STRUCTURE.
The sale of the Kimball Piano is the keystone of its unsurpassable quality, the founda*
tion of its great musical worth, the cause of its popularity with artists and musicians. Perfect
piano scale-making is a mathematical problem figured out by sound waves to the merest fraction
of a second. Mot all piano makers strive for perfection along this line (many making no pre
tense), but out of the few who have nearly reached the goal, S
Kimball is Prominent.
One of the most perfect musical scales is displayed in the cultivated human voice. An
imperfect scale piano is like a person who cannot sing correctly—it’s worse because all do not
claim to sing. It costs money to cultivate the voice, it costs more money to perfect a piano
scale. The coBt to produce a perfect Kimball scale has been no less than that of °ther of the
recognized artistic pianos of the world, yet because of the advantages of the largest output
fram any factory, we are able to sell the Kimball at a vary moderate price, qualify considered
The Kimball System and easy payment plan brings it within reach of all.
