WOMEN AND JEWELS.
Jewels, candy, flowers, man—
that is tbo order of a woman’s pro
ferences. Jewols form a magnet
of mighty power to the average
women. Even that greatest of all
jewels, health, is often ruined iu
the Btrenuous efforts to make or
save the money to purchase them.
If a woman will risk her health
to get a coveted gem,then let her
fortify herself against the insidu-
ous consequences of coughs, cold;
and bronchial affections by the
regular use of Dr. Boschee’s Ger
man Syrup. It will promptly ar
rest consumption in its early stages
and heal the affected lungs and
bronchial tubes and drives the
dread disease from the system
It is not a cure-all but it is a cer
tain cure for coughs, colds and all
bronchial troubles. You can get

dies at Seals Drug Co. Get

It's all right to love your ueigh-
bor, but don't let him impose
upon you.

President Roosevelt and Ills Children.
The gospel of youthful life,
which President llunsvclt has
proaohed so earnestly, has worthy
converts in his own children
Time und again Mr. Roosevelt ban
declared” all children should hav
as good a time nH they possibly
can," and his ow n youngsters have
manifested n marvelous capacity
for observing both I ho spirit and
the letter of the law. Best of nil
Papa Roosevelt Iiase’t sought to
make tho young hopofuls "goody-
goods.” He said once to a friend,
"I do not want any one to believe
my littlo ones nre brought up to
lio cowards. If they are stuck they
are not taught to turn the other
cheek. I commend gentluuoss and
manliness, and I want my hoys to
be strong and gentle. 1 recoin-
mend the same qualities for girls;
and, in fact, I must confess that
when girls are small I porfor that
they should lie tom-boyish. For
them all I pray tney nmy he
healthy nnd natural.”

were out of order, but three bot
tles of Electric Bitters made mo
all right. It’s the best all-round
medicine ever sold over n drug
gist’s counter.” Over worked,
run-down men und weak, sickly
w-.inen gain splendid health and
