Mr. W. L. Berry returned last
week from a visit to his aged moth
er in North Alabama. It is unusual
ly interesting to learn from the
family history that his mother,
who is 90 years of age, was born in
the house she now lives in and has
lived there all her life. Her par
ents obtained the tract of land from
a squatter 100 years ago and gave
in exchange for it 1 1-2 pounds of
home-raised tobacco. Mrs. Berry
says her mother lived to be 106 years
old and her husband 81 years. He
says her . mental faculties are per
fectly normal, and her ability to re
call events of her girlhood is asound
ing, and she remembers the family
history for several generations back.
Her physical condition is as good as
her mental condition. She assists
with the cooking etc., and even
draws buckets of water from an
open well and carries them up steps.
Am sure every one wonders to what
she attributes her good health and
longevity, and if we younger people
are thus blessed, just what great
improvements will be made in living
conditions by the time we are near
ing the century milestone. I forgot
to state an important fact—she is
the mother of eleven children.

Sure Relief for Malaria!
Don’t try homemade treatments or
newfangled remedies! Take that good old
Grove’s Tasteless Chill Tonic. Soon you
will be yourself again, for Grove’s Taste
less Chill Tonic not only relieves the
symptoms of Malaria, but destroys the
infection itself.
The tasteless quinine in Grove’s Taste
less Chill Tonic kills the Malarial infec
tion in the blood while the iron it con
tains builds up the blood to overcome the
effects of the disease and fortify against
further attack. The twofold effect is ab
solutely necessary to the overcoming of
Malaria. Besides being a dependable rem
edy for Malaria, Grove’s Tasteless Chill
Tonic is also an excellent tonic of general
use. Pleasant to take and absolutely
harmless. Safe to give children. Get a
bottle today at any store.
