LETTER TO E. B. DICE.
Meridian, Texas.
Dear Sir: Would you like to
hear of a 20-year paint?
Mr. James A. O’Neil’s house,
Henderson, N. C., was painted 20
years ago with Devoe lead-and-
zinc, and never painted again till
last year it then looked better
than common paint in half that
time.
The reason is: Devoe is all
paint and true paint; while the
common paints are part true and
part false. Don’t pay tomonkey
with paint.
And Devoe costs less than any
of ’em; not by the gallon, of course:
by the house and year. That’s
how to reckon it. Go by the
name.
Yours truly
F. W. Devoe & Co.
FULL OF TRAGIC MEANING

mons, of Casey, la. Think
what might have resulted from
his terrible cough if he had not
taken the medicine about which
he writes: “I had a fearful
cough, that disturbed my night’s
rest. I tried everything, but
nothing’would relieve it, until I
took Dr. King’s New Discovery
for Consumption, Coughs and
Colds, which completely cured
-me.” Instantly relieves and
permanently cures all throat and
lung diseases; prevents grip and
pneumonia. At J. E. Turner

Dr Thacher’s Worm Syrup is a
Household Necessity.
It contains no opiates, or injurious drug of any kind.
Is as pleasant to the taste as maple syrup.
Don’t have to diet your child.
Will not sicken.
Don’t have to give calomel or castor oil.
No other medicine needed.
Not only removes the worms, but regulates the liver,
kidneys and bowels, besides; the most invigorating of
tonics.
My Worm Syrup is as certain in its action as water is
to quench thirst.
So effective has it been, that some years ago the learned
Dr. A. M. Gray, of New York, said in the American Journal
of Health, "DR. THACHER’S WORM SYRUP represents really
an advance in medical treatment of disease, and is a prep-
aration of undoubted merit."'
Who can ask for higher authority?
Buy just one bottle, and you will always use it.
At any drug store, 25 cents.

Gentlemen:—
I have seen more remarkable cures effected by
the use of Freckeleater in the way of imperfec-
tions of the skin, such as Freckles, Pimples,
Liver Moles, Blackheads, etc., than any other
medicinal agentl have ever known. The fact
that it contains no grease convinces me that it
is the most perfect preparation on the market.
Miss Alma Jones, Dallas, Texas.

We have hundreds of others who will testify to the *
merits of Freckeleater.

form of cod liyer oil. Here’s a
natural order of things that
shows why Scott’s Emulsion is
of so much value in all cases of
scrofula and consumption. More

ment, that’s why.
