Lightning Kills Few.
In 1000 lightning killed only
101) people in this whole country.
One's chances of death by lightn

The chance of death from liver,

ly greater, but not if Electric Hit
lers be used, as Robert Mndsen, of
West Burlington, la., proved.
Four doctors gave him up after
eight months of suffering from
virulent liver trouble and yellow
jaundice. He was then complete
ly cured by Electric Bit I ters.
