SOMETHING TO KNOW.
It may be worth something to know
that tho very best remedy for restor
ing the tired out nervous system to a
healthy vigor is Electric Bittors. This
remedy is purely vogetable, acts by
giving tone to tho nervo conters in tho
stomach, gently stimulates the liver
and kidnoys. aud aids these organs in
throwing off impurities in the blood.
Electric Bittors improves tho appotite,
aids digestion, and Ib pronounced by
those who have tried it as the very
best blood purifier and nervo tonic.
Try It. Sold for 50c and $1 per bottle
