A Chicago man has observed that,
"Good deeds are better than real estate
deeds some of tho latter are worth
less. Act kindly and gently, show
sympathy and lend a helping band.

men appreciate a kind word and en
couragement more than substantial
help. Tbero are persons in this com
munity who might truthfully 6ay: "My
good friend, cheer up. A few doses of
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy will rid
you of your cold, and there Is no dan
ger whatever from pneumonia when
you use that medicine. It always
cures. I know it for It has helped me
out many a time. For sale by Pioneer
