This saves several middlemen’s profits. It saves hauling expenses. Anyone can now buy 3jt mine, prices, whether a carload buyer or one who uses only ten of fifteen toqs a year. This Iris been ma<fe possible through a plan evolved lujz a large and old-e-labli.-h --ed concern, THTJ BERNICE COAL COMPANT; witli’main ofl’ices at 317 Como Building. Chicago. This company has thousands of customers* s ! n various sections of the United States who receive all of their coal direct from the mines. These customer^.*are pleased not only be cause of the many dollars they save every yeajL but also because of the quality ofjoal they are getting. Man? write thaVdhvy never before had coal that makes so little dust, that burnr so well, having so few ashes. If you are a coal user—whether you use hard of soft coal, much or little —it will :fae greatly to your advant age to wrjte the Bernice Coal Co. til once for Juices, stating kind and quantity of coal y< u use. adv SAIIS HNE tOR ACHING KIDNEYS - --- We eat too much meat, which clogs Kidneys, then Back hurts and Bladder bothers you. Moat folks forget that the kidneys, like the bowels, get sluggish and clogged end need a iushing occasionally, else we have backache and dull misery in the kidney region, severe headaches, rheu matic twinges, torpid liver, acid stomach, sleeplessness and all sorts of bladder dis orders. You simply must keep your kidneys active and clean, and the moment you feel an ache or , pain in the kidney region, four ounces of Jad baits from any good drug etoro here, take a tabJespoonful in a glass of water before breakfast for a few days and your kidneys will then aet'Ane. This famous suite is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia, and is harmless to flush clogged kidneys and stimulate them to normal activity. It also neutralizes the acids in the urine iso it no longer irritates, thus encling bladder disorders. Jad Balis is harmless; inexpensive; makes a delightful effervescent lithia water drink which everybody should tai. now and thisf to keep their kidneys clean thus avoiding serious complications. A well known local druggist says m Sells lots of Jad Salts to folks who believe in overcoming kidwy trouble while it. is only tavubie/ noy. Moffett. Flournoy. R. (>. Parrish,* r A. Sears, C. E.

A little over two years ago, that j b y fell in battle. He was sent to a hospital, pacthed up, discharged and; I sent home. Presently the affliction of’ his wounds returned. He was obliged to quit work. lie became weaker and I weaker. He wa,- obliged to quit work and was confined to bed. Repeated attempts to interest the! government in his case failed to: bring relief in any form to the suf feier. He grew worse rapidly. In the last tragic hour before the end his mind, long the prey hf black thoughts , gave way. And this hero of yester day died in delirium, cursing the na tion which he had served so hero.icly j and which had abandoned him. We emplore yon, friends, is that] the only ccin in which America should repay her heyoes. Y’et we have ! related only what is true. Further words would debase us. We must act.
