Did Not Work Both Ways.
Mr. George Jones, R. A., a painter
of battle pieces, etc., who died some
years ago, specially prided himself on
his resemblance to the Duke of Well
ington and used to dress up to the
character. Someone mentioned the
flkeness to the duke, and added: “It
must be great, for people in the street
often speak to him for your grace.”
"Very strange,” muttered the great
man; "no one ever spoke to me for
Mr. Jones!”—Edmund Yates.

cluding “Klllarney,” "The Holy City"
and "The Dear Homeland." The In
strument sounds like a cross between
a flute and a trombone and the meth
of playing It suggests both Instru
ments.
The Wonder of It.
The wonder In It all Is, not that
we can converse with a very few
words, but that the human mind is
so all-embracing In its power to
think, that it can employ hundreds
of thousands of words to give ex
pression to Its thoughts.

WHAT CURES ECZEMA?
We have had so many inquiries
lately regarding T~czema and other
skin diseases, tl we are glad to
'make our answ pn c. After care
ful investigation we have found that
a simple wash of Oil of Wintergreen,
as compounded in D. D. D., can be re
lied upon. We would not make thi3
statement to our patrons, friends and
neighbors unless we were sure of it—
and although there are many so-called
Eczema remedies sold, we ourselves
unhesitatingly recommend D. D. D.
Prescription.
Eecause—We know that it gives in
stant relief to that torturing itch.
Because—D. D. D. starts the cure at
the foundation of the trouble.
Because—It cleanses, soothes and
heals the skin.
Because—It enables Nature to repair
the ravages of the disease.
Because—The records of ten years
of complete cures of thousands of the
most serious cases show that D. D. D.
Is today recognized as the absolutely
reliable Eczema cure.
Drop into our store today, Just to
talk over your case with us.

“I used Cascarets and feel like a new
man. I have been a sufferer from dys
pepsia and sour stomach for the last two
years. I have been taking medicine and
other drugs, but could find no relief only

Cascarets to my friends as the only thing
for indigestion and sour stomach and to
keep the bowels in good condition.
They are very nice to eat.”
