dency, as It greatly aided them In

gotten, and they were lonely. They
hoped that their many good friends

We Learn by Mistakes.
Whenever in your life you make a
mistake, it should teach you a les
son. There Is no -master who never
made a mistake, and we should profit
by mistakes of others. Most com
monly errors against health are com
mitted; we know well what we should
avoid, but often neglect so to do. If
such errors become a habit with you,
you should know how to correct
them. In diseases of the stomach,
due to excesses and errors in the diet,
Triner's American Elixir of Bitter
Wine will be found excellent, because
it brings the overworked organs to
their normal activity. It will streng
then the stomach and the bowels,
I purify the blood, give you a good ap
! petite and a restful . sleep.. Use it
when you need strength, when you
feel lndlsposd. At drug stores. Jos.
