before the advance and are selling at old prices. Don't wait, but buy early as this stock will cost more when we have to buy again.
Store
Almost ev§ry man in town knows
some of the things which "the glad new
year" will bring him. The coal bill, the
remnant of last summer's ice bill care
fully preserved by a dilligent corpora
tion, the Christmas present's "glad
hand," and the payment by installments
for some luxury which outclassed his
salary by fifteen pounds stripped. All
these he knows will come his way. If
they don't, someone else has made a
mistake. But the calendars and alma
nacs for 1906 are arriving, and they tell
of some of the most interesting things
pertaining to the new year, which will

A. H. Thurnes, a well known coal
operator of Buffalo, O., writes, I have
baen afflicted with kidney and bladder
trouble for years, passing gravel and
stones with excruciating pain. I got
no relief from medicine until I began
taking Foley's Kidney Cure, then the
result was surprising. A few doses
started the brick dust like fine stones
and now I have no pain across my kid
ney and I feel like a new man. It has
done me §1000 worth of good."
