Henry Dare, who lives eight
miles east of town had a horse
break through the Canadian
bridge Wednesday morning one
leg being badly skinned. Mr. S.

Not knowing how much the dam-
age would be at that time Mr.
Dare said he would see how badly
th j horse was hurt and call again.
The company tries to keep the

It Saved Her Life.
Qooch's Mexican Syrup hns accom-
plished a cure in this neighhooihood
which has astonished the people. Mitis
Davis was given up to die by tier atten-
ding iibvaicician. She had lung fever.
The doctor said she would die before
morning, and advised to discontinue
his medicine, as it was doine her no
(rood. Her parents had a botttle of
Gooch's Mixicau Syrup and Gooch's
Quick Keliel in the house. They at once
began to give the Syrup in doses one
hour apart, nd frequently bathed her
chest with Quick Relief. Before morn-
ing she was better and after using a
few bottlrs of oach, shs is almost as
ever. It was slmost like raising the
dead and ha* established the reputa-
tion of Gooch's Mexican Syrup here ss
a cough remedy; we can sell nothing
else. J. A N. Sands, Trimble, Athens

ulates liver, kidneys and bowels, puri-
ties the blood, strengthens the nerves,
hence cures multitudes of maladies. It
