FATHER CUNNINGHAM
Rector Holy Crose Church,
32nd & Broadway, Louisville, Ky.
says : “Being fully-convinced of the gen
uine merit of Paracamph, I therefore
recommend it. For three weeks I suffer
ed with a severe Cold, the chest becoming
painfully sore. I bought a bottle or
Paracamph and before retiring rubbed
the throat and chest thoroughly and cov
ered with absorbent cotton as directed.
One application gave me perfect relief,
the result being all the more astonishing
because it was ieast expected. Since then
I have had the privilege of seeing it used
in cases of cuts, bruises, etc., and in al
most every case the sufferer has been
afforded instant relief. It has been a
source of blessing and I therefore recom
mend it.
Paracamph is a clean, safe home rem*
edy. Mothers will find it excellent for
quickly relieving Croup, Sore Throat,
Sore Chest, Sore Muscles, Neuralgia and
all forms of Swellings and Inflammations.
Paracamph is a combination of Camphor
and cooling, soothing, healing oils. Trial
size 26c ; family sizes 60c and $1.00. If
you have never used Paracamph we will
send you a trial size free. Write to

A SUCCESSFUL INSTITUTION
We are glad to hear of the suc
cess of the Memphis Commercial
college. This institution is man
aged by business men of business
experience as well as experience
in handling a commercial school.
Their enrollment daring the past
month has increased more rapid
ly than perhaps that of any oth
er school in the south.
Our people realize the
necessity of a thorough, practi
cal course of shorthand, type
writing, bookkeeping and teleg
raphy, such as this school is pre
pared to give by the use of the
Byrne simplified shorthand,
practical bookkeeping and its
original methods of teaching
typewriting and telegraphy.
Some merchants are able to do
twice the business of others with
the same capital invested, be
cause of the system, energy and
push they throw into their busi
ness. The same is true of busi
npss colleges: the methods, sys
tern, energy and push put into
the Memphis Commercial college
is enabling its students to finish
thorough, practical courses in
much less time and at less ex
pense than has ever been accom
plished by other schools. They
maintain a well equipped em
ployment bureau through which
worthy graduates are placed in
guod paving positions free of
charge.
Ambitious young men and wo
men who are anxious to succeed
should write the Memphis Com
mercial college, 46 N. Second St.,
Memphis, Tenn., for their large
free catalogue describing the
work of this successful institu
tion.

prayer.
The pastor sincerely hopes to

Everyone will be cordially
welcomed. Subject, “The pres

j If you are weak and worn
out—if you are nervous, irrita
I ble, have headache, backache,
neuralgia, or periodical pains, it .
{ is because you have exhausted
your nerve force.
If you cannot sleep, and are
! thus robbed of the rest which
nature demands for the restor
ation of mental and physical
vigor, your system will con
tinue to run down.
Dr. Miles’ Nervine restores
vitality by soothing and
strengthening the nervous
system, thus inducing refresh
ing sleep, and imparting
strength and vigor to all the
organs of the body.
There are very few instances
where Nervine will not benefit;
if not, your druggist will re
fund the money.
“When I began taking Dr. Miles’
Nervine I had a very sour stomach,
with pain extending far around on my
left side—attended with extreme nerv
ousness. I dreaded to have night
come, as it was impossible for me to
sleep. Everything I ate distressed me.
Before I had finished one bottle of
Nervine there was such a change that
my husband bought six more, which
has restored me to health.”
