Why will you suffer the unpleasantness of a cold
or the grippe when it is so easy to get rid of them!
Last week Fred Leininger, living west of town
sent a mail order for four boxes Rexall Cold Tablets
and a dollar bottle of Rexall Cherry Cough Syrup.
Four days later he came in and told us that when
he sent the order, four of his neighbors were sick in
bed w;th grippe but that he had them all up; by using
the Cold Tablets.
They cost 25c a box and we guarantee them to cure
any cold—Try them.

FRIDAY AND SATURDAY
Our aim in business is to deal with all our patrons and friends like we
want to be treated, and that is to give each and every one his money s worth
and always the best goods for the money that we can buy.
We think it a good plan to have one day in the year to entertain as well
as show the goods we handle. We will have representatives here from the
factories to tell you what our goods are made of, as well as to tell you now
thev are made and what they will do. We want you to spend one if not both
of these days with us. We are going to have a guessing contest-the one
guessing the nearest to the number of rods of Square Deal Field and Hog
Fencing we have on hand will receive $5 in merchandise; the second $3, the
third $2. • £l , ,
We will have the New Model Iowa Cream Separator on our floor both
the disc and cone. The capacity is larger than any other separator of the
same size, will handle from 500 to 850 pounds, according to size, and you
can buy this machine for less money than any other separator on the market
of standard make. Don’t fail to see this machine. ... .,
We will give 5 per cent discount on all goods sold for cash during these
two days, and 2 per cent discount on all goods settled for by note on these
On Saturday, March 11th, we will serve free lunch from 12 to 2 p. m.
