WE HAVE BEEN
LOOKING...
For several years for a case of Piles,
Boils, Cuts, Burns, Bruises, Sore and
Fevered Breast, Old Sores, Insect Bite
or Sting,Ringworm or Tetter, that Mrs.
Pope’s Mullen Salve would not
cure, but so far we have been agreeably
disappointed. The verdict of all"who
have used it is fkat it’s the one quick,
absolute and perfect healer. Nothing on
earth, like it. Nothing sensational op
fakey about it.‘ It stands on its merit.
It is put up in a neat and pretty pack-
a ge. Use it. Your money back if you
are not satisfied. If your druggist does
not have it in stock,send us 50 cents and
we will sepd you a large box by mail.

An Easy Way to Make Money.
I have made $560.00 in 80. days
selling Di9h- washers. I did my
house work at the %ame time. I
don’t canvas. People come or
send for the Dish-washers. I
handle the Mound City Dish
washer. It is the best on the
market It is lovely to sell. It
washes and dries the dishes per
fectly in two minutes. Every la
dy who sees it wants one. I will
devote all my future time to the
business and expect to clear $4,-
000.00 this year. Any intelligent
person can do as well as I have
done. Write for particulars to

Delighted and Disappointed.
In a household not many miles
from the Houston county court
house there are two brothers, nei
ther of these boys being yet" five
years of age.
Not many months these boys
went to Macon with their parents,
their first visit to the oity.
The large buildings were to
these boys a delightful revelation,
and the smooth pavement of the
sidewalks was a floor bayond their
imagination. With wide ^eyed
astonishment and pleasure the
many new things of street and
store were seen and talked about.
At a clothihg store the boys lin
gered about the front door while
the parents made purchases with
in. Missing the boys, the father
went to the door just in time to
prevent one of the little fellows
from demolishing a wax boy fig
ure. When asked what he was
doing he Baid “I spoke to him
six times, and he wouldnt speak,
and I was going to hit him with a
brick”.
Later the boys saw a small dog
that suited their fancy, in their
effort to catch him, they chased
the dog nearly around a block of
buildings.
After a ride on a street car
they declared their intention of
carrying the car home to play
with, and a bribe of 10 cents each
was neoessary to induce them to
forego their purpose.
The entire stay in the city was
a picnic, with revelations at every
turn, but that they could not
bring home a lot of the ouriosities
was to ,them a sore disappoint
ment.

TO OUR FRIENDS AND PATRONS.
Bears the
Signature
of
For several years past we have sold Tenncsse Mules,
and from what our customers tell us and from our own
observation, /we are satisfied these mules are wprth
from $15.00 to $25.00 more than the 'Western muhs 7
and they do not cost our customers a penny more.
The mules we sell are raised in the mountains of Ten
nessee and are stronger and hardier than the Western
mules, and are well broke and will stand as much work
the first year as the second. Owing to the fact that our
expenses are light, we ai*e prepared to save N you money.
Remember, all. the mules we sell are guaranteed to be
all right, or your money will be refunded. We will
have in a ear of these mules November 1st, next. Call
and see them.
