Baking Powder
Absolutely
Pure
Made from Pure Grape Cream of Tartar
In baking powder Royal is the standard, the
powder of highest reputation; found by the
United States Government tests of greatest
“strength and purity.
It renders the food more healthful and palat
able and is most economical in practical use.
Housekeepers are sometimes importuned to
buy alum powders because they are * cheap.”
Yet some of the cheapest made powders are sold
to consumers-at the highest price. ~ * ;
Housekeepers should stop and think. Is it
not better to buy the Royal and take no chances—
the powder whose goodness and honesty are never
questioned ?
Is it economy to spoil your digestion by an
alum-phosphate or other adultered powder to
save a few pennies?

Deafness Cannot be Cure
by local application, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the
ear. There is only one way to cure
deafness, and that is by constitution
al remedies. Deafness is caused by
an inflamed condition of the mucous
lining of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube is inflamed you have a rum
bling sound or imperfect hearing and
when it is entirely. closed, Deafness
is the result, and unless the inflama
tion can be taken out and this tube
restored to its normal condition,
hesring will be destroyed forever;
pine cases out of ten are caused by
Oatarrh, which is nothing but an in
flamed condition of the mucous sur
face.
We give One Hundred Dollars for
any case of Deafness (caused by ca
tarrh) that cannot be cured by Hall’s

Remedies Increasing |
Col. Dillingham’s Pilal
the wonderful new remed
is being introduced for
time in the State seems
lcomplishing' all that has
claimed for it by the advel
This is proved conclusive
the numbers of sick people
within the past four orfive &
have been calling upon J, H§
hil to tell him of the imp#
ment in their condition,
week long they come, from ev§
part of this County, andit is e#
mated that in the past thrd
weeks over two hundred peopi
have called simply to express
their gratitude to J. H. Polhill
and to thank him. This is very
unusual, and it is seldom indeed
that people will take the trouble
to express thanks f(g a medicine,
Speaking of this matter J. H.
Polhill said: . ;
“To the outsideer the many °
calls that I receive- from people
who have used Plant Juice and
have come to tell me what it has
done seems to me to be very une
usnal, but for the past three
months I have been through this
experience and therefore take it
much as a matter, of course. A
sick man or woman who has been
benefitted or made well abin in’
a comparatively short tlme, is'
the most grateful person in the
world. Probably you don't"
know it, but about nine-tenths
of the diseases with which hue
man beings are afflicted are due
primarily and. fundamentally to
stomach trouble. The stomach
is, practically speaking, the fure
nace which runs the machinery
of the body. Humanlife is sup.
ported by the food which is taks”
enlinto the system, and as every
bitof that food must first be pre*
pared or digested by the stom
ach in such a manner that it can
be turned into wblood, bone si
new, etc., the moment the stom
ach becomes out of order the en
tire system is deranged and
much suffering is the result.
‘“The results thatare accome
plished by [Cdl. Dillingham’s
Plant Juice seem very wonder
ful whien you do not understand
the nature of the remedy. Asa
matter of fact, the principal
thing the remedy does is to put
the stomach in good working ore
der in 4 veryg short time, and in
copsequence the action of every
oher . organ of the badyis ime
proved almost at once, and health
is the result.” ) S
During the short interview J
H. Polhill was interrupted tw‘icé
by people who had come tq thank
him. The first was Mr. G. A.
Herring. Mr. Herring had been :
troubled with catarah for a num
ber of years. He said: J. H. '
Polhill, I have taken the Plant
Juice medicine for just four days
as] bought a bottles from you
a dollar Wednesday. Ihave had
catarrh for several years, and
have tried almost everything,
but nothing did me any good.
In these four days pastl have
been so much benefitted and feel
so greatly improved thatl have '
come out here to tell you what a
‘wonderful remedy you have, and
thank you for what it has done
for me.”
~ The other caller was Mrs. E.
G. Ganklie. She said: “T have
had a terrible case of stomach
troubled with indigestion and a
very bad appetite, and felt
tired all the time, so that it was
an effort to do work. I have us
ed Col. Dillingham’s Plant Juice
since Monday, and feel so much
better thatl have come to tell
you about it. I have not felt so
and happy for many years, and
cannot thank you enough. My
son has had catarrh fora long
and he is also taking the medi
cine and feels a great deal better
:Elliougihwpe has”been ttkulc it
