Whenever our citizens, visit their native country, in Europe, they create a certain interest. Their appearance and conduct, is entirely .different, showing that the years spent in the United States gave them broader views. Here, everybody has a chance to work, and to elevate himself, to read the papers, to hear great orators, to be members of some organization. Our greatest men had a more practical than theoretical education, they studied in the school of life. Our workmen are far ahead of those in the old country, our products excel those of abroad. The best example of this is'Triner's American Elixir of Bitter Winter Wrine. Although similar preparations are made in Europe, none have the fragrance, and medical action of Tri ner's. It is made of pure California grape-wine, and the best herbs and roots a remedy as nature has prepar ed it. It acts as a specific in troubles of the stomach, liver and kidneys. By promoting the digestion it creates new, rich blood, the foundation of life and health. At drug stores and at the manufac turer's Jos. Triner, 799 South Ashland Ave., Chicago, Ills.
