AFTER much wrestling with the other publishers we are able to an
nounce what we believe to be the best list of clubbing combinations

tinct saving to every subscriber.
When we began these negotiations, it appeared that all prices would be
much higher this year than previous.

volume of business for other papers, some of the publishers saw the light and
at the last minute made price reductions which make our clubs even more at
tractive than in the past.

$1.50, but when it comer, to class, coupled with economy, you’ll find the real
stuff listed below.

Amazing Results Secured in One Day
by Use of K-17 Formerly Known
As Rattle Snake Oil.

be dreaded any longer since this re
markable discovery. Now it is pos

cases of deafness to be relieved in

a prescription formerly known as

meeting with wide success all over
the country.
Mr. D. Dey, a Nebraska resident,

treatment for only two weeks and my
hearing is restored perfectly. The
relief was almost instantaneous and
now the head noises have disap
peared. My catarrh, a case of many
years standing, is improving wonder
fully.”
This compound, which is known as
K-17, is easily used at home and
seems to work almost like magic in
