A Big Dividend.
3s desired by men who invest
money in any enterprise.
This is but natural and is a
laudable desire.
The Independent knows of no
investment which will bring such
a HANDSOME DIVIDEND as
money invested in the plan of the
State Board of Health of Arkan
sas to maintain a Co-operative
Health Car and it seems that the
plan is rapidly materializing.
A few months ago Dr. T. B.
Bradford, an officer of the Rock
efeller Sanitary Commission,
* conceived the plan of having a
hundred subscribers of one dol
lar each, for a period of five
years, band together to build
and maintain a car of this sort.
Already many subscribers to
\his most excellent plan have
signed for the five years.
Cards are feeing distributed
l prominent workers in Jack
son county.
We know of men who would
give the one hundred dollars,
but the originator does not want
it that way. lie wisely wants
the amount distributed far and
wide in every county.
The Independent endorses the
most excellent plan as unique
k .MM Htts ' im: m •**■> n" *•*t
' 'and far reaching in its benefi
1 cent effect.
I The hundred subscribers to
, the fund will have a monument
* built to their memories, in
stronger men and women, hap
pier boys and girls, who will
grow from the instructions ob
tained from seeing this car,
which will bq carried all over the
state wherever there are railroad
conveniences.
Truly we are living in a pro
: gressive age.

Finds Cure for Epilepsy
! After Years of Suffering
“My daughter was afflicted with
epileptic fits for three years, the attacks
coming every few weeks. WTe employed
several doctors but they did her no
good. About a
year ago we
heard of Dr.
Miles’ Nervine,
and it certainly
has proved a
blessing to our
little girl. She is
now apparently
cured and is en
joying the best
of health. It i3
over a year since
she has had a
fit. We cannot
/ speak too highly
j of Dr. Miles’ Nervine."
MRS. FRANK AN TW UP ON.
Comfrty, Minn.
j Thousands of children in the
! United Slates who are suffering
! from attack- of epilepsy are a
burden and sorrow to their parents,
who would give anything to restore
health to the sufferers.
Dr„ Miles’ Nervine
is one of the best remedies known
for this affliction. It lias proven
| beneficial in thousands of cases
1 and those who have used it have
i the greatest faith in it. It is not
1 a “cure-all,” but a reliable remedy
for nervous diseases. You need
! not hesitate to give it a trial.
Sold by all Druggists, if the first
bottle fails to benefit your money is
i returned. s
