Gentlemen:
I am enclosing you cbock for $3.12 lu
payment for tobacco cotton. I am hav
lug an aero of tobacco grown. If my
experiment proves that this lnnd will
grow tobacco, as I think it will. I am
going to brig this ciop to Maysvillo and
let the farmers of Mason and adjoin
ing counties seo what can bo grown on
land which at present its cash value is
not more than $12.50 per acre.
Yours truly,
D. F. THOMAS.

FRAIL, SICKLY CHILD
Rostorcd To Hoalth By Vlnol A Lottor
To Mothors.
Anxious mothers often wonder why
their children are so pale, thin and ner
vous and have- so little appetite. For
tho benefit of such mothors lu this
vicinity wo publish tho following:
Mrs. M. L. Cassady, of Thoinasvillo,
Ga., says: "My llttlo daughter was
anaemic, delicnto and nervous, she had
no appetite and seemed listless. Wo
could not seem to find anything that
would holp her until wo wore advised
to give nor Vinol. Inside of two weeks
after taking it sho showed a marked
improvement, both in appetite, vim and
looks. I continued giving it to her and
words fail to express my gratitudo for
what Vinol has done for her."
This child's recovery was due to the
combined action of tho medicinal ele
ments extracted from cods' livers,
combined with the blood mnking and
strength creating properties of tonic
iron contained in Vinol.
Vinol will build up and strongthon
delicate children, old people, and the

There's a Reason
For Aches and Pains
Often some unsuspected habit, such as coffee drink
ing, is thie rout of the trouble.
Theiaverage coffee drinker who suffers from sleep
lessness, headache, indigestion, nervousness or heim
tnouble usually says, "Coffee doesn't hurt me," until
some day Nature hauls him up
It's poor business to trade

Tha pure food-drink

Postum is made of prime wheat and a small portion of molasses. It has a delicious Java
like flavour, but none of the drugs, "caffeine" and "tannin" which make coffee a health
destroyer.
If your own judgment leads to a trial of Postum, for, say ten days, and you begin to
sleep soundly, digest food bitter, and your nerves git steady, these signs of returning health
will show.
'There's a Reason" for POSTUM
Postum now comes In two forms.
Renular Postum must be well boiled. 15c and 25c packages.
Instant Postum a soluble powder. A teaspoonful, stirred in a cup of hot water, makes
g delicious beverage Instantly. 30t and 50c tins.
The cost per cup of both kinds Is about the same.
