and his parents are greatly worried.
He is the son of President Oglesby, of
the South Georgia railroad, and Is well

O UR WHISKIES have not been tampered with, quality
being reduced several times to make as many different
profits. They are simon pure—healthful and palatable.
Our distillery No. 100,‘Coll District, Tenn., is
located on our farm in a valley where the air, water and sani

The grain we use in distilling is the best Northwestern
Rye and Malt and Tennessee Valley Corn, a large portion
of which we raise.
You cannot buy better whiskies than from us regardless
of higher prices. One order will prove this statement.
With one exception, six full quarts is the smallest ship
ment made—we do not assort. This reduces the cost of
handling, packing and carriage charges, enabling us to offer
six quarts at about the price we would get for four.
Do not let efur low prices prejudice you. They are
wholesale and you buy direct.

What Kodol Will Do
For you, when you need it But the longer you neg

Order from nearest point.
And, of course. Indigestion If neg-

benefit you. Some of those there
Is no help for at all.
There aro. In fact, very few ail

pure blood la always dno to a dls-

Use Kodol and prevent Nervous
Dyspepsia.
Kodol will effectually assist Na
ture to secure a complete restora
tion of good digestion. It does
this by at one* digesting all food
In the stomach and keeping It di
gested, until the stomach Is rested
and can resume Its own work. Ko
dol removes the cause—and the
effect quickly removes Itself.
When It Is recalled that Apo

even Consumption—are dne to

“It la with pleasure I write to Inform
you of tho good Duffy's Pure Malt
Whiskey has done me. I was prac
tically run down with dyspepsia and
stomach trouble. I received no bene
fit from tho doctors, so I decided to
give them up and take Duffy's Pur®
Mfllt Whiskey. It has done me moro
good than all tho doctors and other
autiaa^l medicines.”
Duffy’s Pure Malt Whiskey
is an absolutely pure distillation of malted grain, great enro
being used to have every kem el thoroughly malted, thus de
stroying tho germ nnd producing a predigested liquid food
in tho form of a malt essence, which is tho most effective ton-
io stimulant and invigorntor known to science; softened by
warmth and moisture, its pal-
atnhility and freedom from in
jurious substances render is so
that it can bo retained by the
most sensitive stomach.
It is invaluable for over
worked men, delicnto women
and sickly children. It
strengthens and snstains tho
system; is a promoter of
health and longevity; makes
tho young strong.
