Away up on the rough mountain side
was a little cabin, and as I have a
most fervent human interest in the
home life of all peoples remote from
cities I proposed that we visit the cab
in, with the wayfarers’ usual pretext,
to ask for a drink of water. In the
one room of the small house were the
usual furnishings, a few chairs, many
dogs lying about, guns on the wall, a
high bed in each corner and a homely
table spread with homely crockery in
the center of the household picture. A
plain little woman, worn and aged,
hut very neat in calico frock and ging-
. ham apron, met us at the door and
asked us in, while one of the rough
boys lounging on the porch was dis
patched to the spring for fresh water.

“Of course *we uns* agreed with the
good woman that her complaint was
well based, but we praised her clever
ness and originality in utilizing the

weak people strong by digesting what

their food into the kind of pure, rich,
red blood that makes you feel good all
over. Mrs. Cranfill, of Troy, I. T.,
writes: For a number of years I was
troubled with indigestion and dyspep

Finally I was induced to use Kodol and
after using four bottles I am entirely
cured. I heartily recommend Kodol to

Drew’s pew and then to Deacon
Snow’s and see them with their’ eyes
closed and heads nodding I feel that
all is well. Just as surely as I discover
them wide awake and alert after I’ve
been preaching for ten minutes I know
that there’s something wrong to their
minds and that I shall hear what it is
as soon as the service is over.”—
