8 CURES. TWO Darlingtok, S. Aug. 19th, 1903. Gentlemen About two years ago I had a very severe attack of inflammatory rheumatism.

I suffered great pain and was confined to my bed forfive weeks. During the time I was treated by two Physicians without permanent relief. Capt. Harker, a conductor on the Atlantic Coast Line heard of my condition and stent me two bottles of Rheum acide." I began to tske it and in a week I got up and walked on crutches. After taking three bottles of the remedy I got entirely well and went back to my business.

I personally know of a number of other bad cases that were cured by the use of your medicine, in this town and vicinity. It is all that you claim for it. Truly, J. LTSISKBON. "We will keep constant ly on hand a Stock to select trom.

no one has ever told why. When mothers are worried because the children do not gain strength and flesh we say give them Scott's Emulsion. It is like the penny in the milk because it works and because there is something astonishing about it. Scott's Emulsion is simply a milk of pure cod liver oil with some hypophosphites especially prepared for delicate stomachs. Children take to it naturally because they like the taste and the remedy takes just as naturally to the children because it is so perfectly adapted to their wants.

For a-i weak and pale and thin children Scott's Emulsion is the most satisfactory treatment. We will send you the penny, a sample free. Be sure that this picture in the form cf a label is on the wrapper ot every Louie of Emulsion you buy. SCOTT BOWNE, Chemists, 409 Pearl N. Y.

ILi rffrJttlCftJC I It is not the purpose here to make any promi-es or to autline any policy for The Commonwealth during 1903 but we take space to say that we shall try to serye the publlj "to the best of our ability," as the sp9.ikers used to introduce their remarks the country debnling societies. While many of our readers have disregarded their obligations to us thus iar, we are grateful for the patronage of those who have paid their dues and we start out into the work of the new year with as' bright prospects as we remember to have done at any new year time since our first editorial new year just fifteen years ago. The paper will be for 1903 just what the public makes it possible for it to be. With liboral support It can and will show liberal enterprise but with a poor patronage the enterprise of the paper could not be very marked. If we all do our best we may reasonably hope for success.

Dr. Miles' Nervine Built Up My Shattered Nerves and Gave Me an Appetite.

Of the millions of people, who today suffer from Nervous or heart weakness, a large per- icmac irace me cause airectiy to aeaaiy LaGrippe. It is a germ disease, and makes a direct attack upon the nerves, putting an extra strain upon them at the time their vitality is at the lowest ebb. If LaGrippe has left you with a shattered nervous system, with loss of appetite, lack of energy, insomnia. frequent headaches and morbid tendencies, you snouia strengtnen tne weakened nerves with Dr. Miles' Nervine.

It will undo all that grip has done, bring back appetite, rest and restore the nerves to their normal activity. "I want to write this testimonial for the benefit of those Who have suffered from that dreaded disease LaGrippe. I suffered weeks with it, and nothing I tried seemed to benefit me in any way, shape or form (I suffered almost death) and finally my daughter recommended Dr. Miles' Nervine to me and I can truthfully say from the first day I felt better than in weeks. It gave me relief, built up my shattered nerves and gave me a splendid appetite.

I cannot speak too highly of it and want to say, each and every one who has suffered from LaGrippe will find instant relief by getting a bottle of Dr. Miles' Nervine. Insist on having it and take no other. It is simply splendid. Hoping this will benefit some poor sufferer I remain, Mrs.
