MERITONE FAMOUS
NEW SYSTEM TONIC
NOW ON SALE HERE
LOCAL DRUGGIST
GETS BIG AGENCY
G. S. VARDEN & SON HONORED
WITH EXCLUSIVE AGENCY
GAINS INSTANT SUCCESS.
Pame of Meritone Sweeps Over Two
States in Two Months' Time
Meritone, the new system medi
cine of real jmerit, is now on sale in
Paris.
G. S. Varden & Son has been
awarded the exclusive agency for
Meritone in Paris, an agency that is
considered a prize by drug men ev
erywhere. Meritone is the system medicine
that thousands of people in larger
cities are already taking. It is the
formula of a trained chemist who
spent years to bring it to perfection
and is a builder, strengthener and
general system medicine without a
peer.
Many people who had influenza or
pneumonia are taking Meritone to
bring back their strength and build
up their system which has become
weakened by such severe illness.
Many others are taking Meritone to
correct an ailing condition of the
stomach, liver and kidneys or to
combat catarrh or rheumatism.
In its first two months Meritone
swept over the States of Tennessee
and Kentucky with such rapidity as
to startle old and experienced drug
men. In that short period, remark
able sales were made in scores of
cities and towns and the name of the
wonderful new medicine was made a
household word among five million
people.
The only reason the makers of
Meritone give for its instant success
is its real merit. Merito-ne is the
medicine of merit that thousands of
people have needed and wanted for
years.
Meritone can be obtained in Paris
only at G. S. Varden & Son's.

Mrs. Charles Sauer, of this city,
has received a letter from her
brother, Private Alvin Thomas, who
is a member of the Sixth Regiment,
United States Engineers, with the
American Expeditionary Force, in
Prance. The letter, which bears
date of Nov. 30, is as follows:
"Vichy, France, Nov. 30.
"Dearest Sister: Just a line to let
you know that I am in the land of
the living. . . .Although I am writ
ing this letter from the Base Hospital
No. 76, located at Vichy, France, I
api only slightly wounded. Don't
worry about me for I am getting
along fine. Will be able to be out
in a few days. I have been real
lucky, as our regiment went on the
firing line of the 15th day of July.
I could not tell you at that time, as
the censors and the army authorities
would not permit us to tell where we
were located or what we were doing.
. .Vichy is in the southern part of "American Expeditionary Force."

From Detroit, abode of temper
ance,, comes the gladsome news of
the discovery of a temperance cock
tail. The news reached Broadway,
New York, through the medium of
B. G. Koether. All that one needs
to produce the new gloom dispeller
is a small glass of grape juice and
a little pellet of yeast.
Those who have sampled the new
thirst quencher, according to Mr.
Koether, are unanimous in their tes
timony that the well-known varie
ties have nothing on the new one.

KENTUCKY TO BE FACTOR IN
RELIEF WORK.
When a telegram from the War
Department was delivered at the
home of Lieut. Robert Martin, at
New Bedford, Conn., recently an
nouncing his death on the battle
front in France, the telegram was re
ceived by Lieut. Martin, himself.
Lieut. Martin promptly wired the
War Department to correct the cas
ualty report.
To thoroughly know the virtues of
a medicine you must investigate its
work. Doan's Kidney Pills stand
this test, and plenty of proof exists
right here in Paris. People who tes
tified years ago to relief from back
ache, kidney and urinary disorders,
now give connrjmed testimony de
clare the results have lasted. How
can any Paris sufferer longer doubt
the evidence?
Mrs. J. T. Martin, 1024 Main St.,
Paris, says: "Kidney trouble came
on from a fall and the results were
very severe, causing me more suffer
ing than the fall itself. No one can
ever know what I went through at
that time, for I suffered awfully.
My back ached and pained until I
thought" it would break in two.
Sharp twinges shot through my kid
neys and if any one had hit me in
the back with a heavy axe it could
not have hurt wdrse. In one week
after using Doan's Kidney Pills, I
felt like a different woman for they
fixed me up in fine shape." (State
ment given February 17, 1908.)
On November 9, 1916, Mrs. Mar
tin said: "Doan's Kidney Pills have
made a cure for me and it has been
penmanent."

simply ask for a kidney remedy get

VICE SECTION.
Five million yards of cloth, prin
cipally the khaki material which is
the mark of the United States Army,
has been purchased by the Ameri
can Committee on Armenian and
Syrian Relief to be immediately
consigned to the near East, where
every effort is being made to save
4,000,000 of these people from abso
lute extinction.
Besides this, an adequate supply
of needles, thread, thimbles, but
tons, etc., in fact all material nec
essary to allow a thorough job of
sewing, has been purchased and will
be sent on the naval transports
which have been dasignated by the
Navy Department to carry relief sup
plies to the near East. This cloth
and the various supplies will fur
nish work and then clothing to the
needy millions who are looking to
the American nation for assistance
until they are re-established.
Kentucky will be a large factor in
this relief work, but this State is
pledged to raise $300,000 in the com
ing campaign, this sum being one
per cent, of the total amount to be
raised in the United States. Word
from State headauarters at Louis
ville, where the Rev. E. L. Powell
is directing the work, tell of grow

monwealth in the big drive to be
