At present his two sons, Ralph and
Blaine, and daughter Miss Tila, are
with him, and while he receives the
best of care and may be able to move
around again, the chances are as re
ported by Dr. Iiickard that he will not
completely recover. Ralph is braking
on the II. & M. out of St. Joe, and ar
rived Thursday night. When Mr.
Sitzer was first taken he made an ef
fort to crawl to the door, but could not
open it, nor could he make his voice
heard, and it is lucky that the neigh
bors noticed his absence. It is to be
hoped Mr Sitzer will soon get strong
again.

Louisville oil stock is not advancing
much just now. The report in Omaha
to the effect that the company bad
quit work here after striking a four
foot vein of coal in order to freeze out
the small stockholders is as rediculous
as it is amusing. They quit work be
cause the people would not put up
more money because they worked in a
hap-hazard way from the very start.
Louisville people had and still have
faith in the prospects of finding coal
here and were willing to put up a rea
sonable sum to be used in prospecting,
but they want to know that it is used
judiciously for the purpose intended
and not for band concerts and special
trains. I

Confessions of a Priest.
Rev. John S. Cox, of . Wake, Ark.,
writes, "for 12 years I suffered from
Yellow Jaundice. I consulted a number
of physicians and tried all sorts of
medicines, but got no relief. Then I
began the use of Electric Bitters and
feel that I am now cured of a disease
that had me in its grasp for twelve
years." If you want a reliable medicine
for Liver and Kidney trouble, stomach
disorder or general debility, get
Electric Bitters. It's guaranteed by

. . Americans in Europe.
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.
