Has New Horse. f.laus Mootol, the drayman, is boasting of a fine new untamed slepd which ho has just secured from Ailain Kurtz and which he will use on his dray wagon in tho future.

Tlu face can he nronounecd as tin- mirror of health. Seeing a man of a (dear, white complexion, with a liglil pink hue, of bright eyes, red lips and sound teeth, you will say, without hesitating, that he is healthy. If his complexion is yellowish, the face full of eruption, the eyes dull, the lips pale, the teeth bad, you will at once say that be is not well. His trouble is usually to be found in the digestive organs, and we should recommend him to use Triner's American Klixir of IJittor Wine, as the best remedy. When ever it is necessary to bring the stomach, the liver or the intest ines to a better performance of their duty, and to increase the strength of the nerves, Triner's 111eriean Klixir of Hitter Wine will do it. In poor appetite and in sluggishness of the bowels, in disorders of Hie digestion, this remedy will give you satisfaction. At drug stores. Jos. Triner, 1333- 31) So. Ashland Ave., Chicago, 111 A.
