INDEPENDENT’S
BABY CONTEST.
Here is the proposition and the
rules governing the contest:
There is a handsome $25.00 j
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,
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 ovnppfprl fhinlr tTipir* Tin
j 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 j
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, J
1904, is eligible to this contest, j
nor shall any employe or party j
connected with this paper be eli- j
gible to vote. |
Second—Every issue of the?
Daily and Weekly Independent i
from November 1 to December ■
24, will contain a ballot entitling j
the holder to one vote in this j
contest. For every dollar’s worth j
of job, work, advertising and
subscription paid for between j
these dates a coupon good for ten
votes will be issued, but no cou- j
pons will be issued for sums less
than $1.00. Coupons will not be
sold, and will only be issued for
job, ad and subs^rpition 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 lockbox, to be opened j
at 8 o’clock each publication day! ■
and counted. The daily issue of j'
that afternoon will contain the '
total of the several candidates !
and the public will thus be kept '
informed of the voting each day. 1
Fourth—A committee of three i
good business men will be select- 1
ed to canvass the ballots the11
morning of Dec. 24 and announce t
the winner. All ballots must be 1
deposited at this office by 11 a. i
m., Dec. 24, 1904. i
Read the rules carefully.

Pain Weakens
And Destroys the
Nerves.
Do you know that pain is simply tho
nerves crying for help?
Has it ever occurred to you that pain
weakens and destroys tha nervous sys
tem?
For this reason you should act prompt
ly In every case of headache, backache,
stomach ache, sciatica, rheumatism,
neuralgia, toothache, and all other pain.
Dr. Miles' Anti-Pain Pills will relieve
pain almost instantly, because they act
In a natural and harmless manner upon
the nerve tissues, and relieve the con
ditions which cause the pain.
While very prompt and effective In
their action, they do not effect the
Krvnral a In t L, a 1 aa mI, •. . , i . .
-- --•** - k'-1 ‘vcuj uai uia
less, and leave no disagreeable after
effects.
Delicate women who suffer from
headache, bearing-down and periodical
pains, can use them with impunity.
You may also give them to children
with the assurance that while they will
relieve, they cannot possibly harm.
"Dr. Miles* Anti-Pain Pills never fall
to cure headache, rain In back of neck,
cold pains, neuralgia, or in fact any
pain. 1 have taken them with best re
sults, and have given them to others;
they never disappoint.”—
