Take Plenty of Time to Eat
There is a saying that "rapid eat-
ing is slow suicide." If you have
formed the habit of eating too
rapidly you are most likely suffer-
ing from indigeston dr constipation,
which will result eventually in se-
rious illness unless corrected. Di-
gestion begins in the mouth. Food
should be thoroughly masticated
and insalivated. Then when you
have a fullness of the stomach or
feel dull and stupid after eating,
take one of Chamberlain's Tablets.
Many severe cases of stomach
trouble and constipation have been
cured by t/ie use of these tablets.
They are easy to take and most
agreeable in effect. Sold by all
dealers. , Adv.
Shake Off Your Rheumatism.
Now is the time to get rid of j
your rheumatism. Try a twenty-
five cent bottle of jChamberlain's
Liniment and see how quickly your
rheumatic pains disappear. Sold

STOMACH TROUBLE
~ FOR FIVE YEARS
Majority of Friends Thought Mr.
Hughes Would Die, But
One Helped Him to
Recovery.
^Pomeroyton, Ky.—In interesting ad-
vices from this place, Mr. A. J. Hughes
writes as follows: "I was down with
stomach trouble for five (5) years, and
would have sick headache so bad, at
times, that I thought surely 1 would die.
I tried different treatments, but they
did not seem to do me any good.
1 got so bad, I could not eat or sleep,
and all my friends, except one, thought I
would die. He advised me to try
Tliedford's Black-Draught, and quit
taking other medicines. I decided to
take his advice, although I did not have
any confidence in it.
1 have now been taking Black-Draught
for three months, and it has cured me—
haven't had those awful sick headaches
since I began using it.
I am so thankful for what Black*
Draught has done for me."
Thedford's Black-Draught has been
touted a very valuable medicine for de-
rangements of the stomach and liver. It
is composed of pure, vegetable herbs,
contains no dangerous Ingredients, and
acts gently, yet surely. It can be freely
used by young and old, and should be
kept in every family chest.

further fact that the defendants are
setting up and asserting some kind
of title to said land creates and
causes a cloud on plaintiff's title
thereto which he desires ¿o have
removed.
Wherefore plaintiff sues and
prays that on hearing he have
judgment removing all clouds from
his title to said land and that he
be quieted in his title and possession.
You are further commanded to
serve this citation by publishing
the same once in each week for
eight successive weeks previous to
the return day hereof, in a news-
paper published in your county; but!
if no newspaper is published in said
county, then in the nearest county
where a newspaper is published.
Herein fail not, but have you be-
fore said court, on the said first day
of the next term* thereof, this writ

how you have executed the same.

is light draft because the weight is carried on the wheels—no neck weight, no side
draft, no sledding of the cutter bar.
WE WANT TO SEND YOU SOME PROOFS
of New Standard superiority. You ought to know how the New Standard dis-
tributes the strain, about the roller bearings, abput the continuous knife-bar
bearing, about how the mower is thrown out of gear when the cutter bar is folded
