The sum of $175,000 has been appro-
priated by the exposition management
for prizes anil premiums in live stock,
and $225,000 has been set aside for har-
ness racing. An unusual feature of
the live stock exhibit is that the cat-
tle will be on exhibition during the en-
tire course of the Exposition from Feb.
20 to Dec. 4. 1915.
The Panama-Pacific International Ex-
position will represent an expenditure
of many millions. ■ According to a re-
cast statement gathered from the
cmptroller of the Exposition, the to-
tal outlay for the big show on the day
of its opening will be $80,000,000, and
this will not represent the enormous
amount represented in the exhibits of
the world. Some of the exhibits will
represent outlays of $250,000 to $300,-
0O0.
The exhibit buildings will be group-
ed along San Francisco bay not far
from the famous Golden Gate, the en-
trance to the superb harbor of San
Francisco. Indeed, the buildings may
be seen to best advantage by any one
entering the Golden Gate. Even now a
splendid idea of how the complete Ex-
position will appear at a distance may
gained from a view of some of the
palaces now arising.
The tallest structure at Harbor View,
the Exposition site, will be 426 feet.
Around this will be grouped huge
domes, minarets and towers, which

Remarkable Cure of Dysentery.
”i was attacked with dysentery about
July 15th, and used the doctor’s medi-
cine and other remedies with no relief,
only getting worse all time. I was un-
able to do anything and my weight
dropped from 145 to 125 pounds. I suf-
fered for about two months when I was
advised to use Chamberlain’s Colic,
Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy. I
used two bottles of it and it gave me
permanent relief,” writes B. W. Hill of
Sonw Hill, N. C. For sale by all dealers.
SERIOUS ERROR IN PEARSALL
Pearsall Citizens Will Do Well to
Profit By the Following.
Many fatal cases of kidney disease
have reached an incurable stage because
the patient did not understand the
symptoms. Even today in Pearsall,
there are many residents making the
same serious error. They attribute
their mysterions aches and pains to
overwork, or worry, perhaps, when all
the time their rheumatic pains, back-
ache and bladder irregularities are
most probably due to weak and ailing
kidneys. If you are ill, if your kidneys
are out of order, profit by this Pear-
sail resideht’s experience.
F. T. Weatherly, Pearsall, Texas,
says: “We are never without Doan’s
Kidney Pills in the house and consider
them a valuable kidney remedy. 1 But-
tered a great deal from pains through
my back and sides and after stooping,
I had difficulty in straightening. The
action of my kidneys was irregular.
At n ght 1 was restless and i n the
morning I felt all tired out. I finally
used Doan’s Kidney Pills and they
made me strong aud well.”

Mothers! Have Your Children Worms?
Are they feverish, restless, nervous,
irritable, dizzy or constipated? Do
they continually pick their nose or
grind their teeth? Have they cramping
pains, irregular and ravenous appetite?
These are all signs of worms. Worms
not only cause your child suffering,
but stunt its mind and growth. Give
Kickapoo Worm Killer” at once. It
kills and removes the worms, improves
your child’s appetite, regulates stom-
ach, liver and bowels. The symptoms *
disappear and your child is made hap-
py and healthy, as nature intended.

Good Reason for His Enthusiasm.
When a man has suffered for several
days with colic, diarrhoea or other
form of bowel complaint and is then
cured sound and well by one or two
doses of Chamberlain’s Colic, Cholera
and Diarrhoea Remedy, as is often the
case, it is bat natural that he should
be enthusiastic in his praise of the re-
medy. and especially is this the case of
a severe attack when life is threaten-
ed. Try it when in need of such a re-
medy. It never fails. Sold by all deal-
ers.
