Besides the immedi ate relatives he left behind an un usually large circle of friends and neighbors, for he was highly esteem ed and respected by all who knew him. the same being evinced by the beautiful floral offerings banked about the caske t and by-those who so kindly shared in the lonely vigils by bedside and assisted in laying the remains so tenderly away for the lat't long slumber.

The farrpous Amercan author Robert Louis Stevenson wrote: "For fourteen years I have not had a tlay's real health. I have wakened sick and gone to bed weary; and I have done my work unflinchingly." There are many sulYerers who are fighting in a similar way, but in many cases their condition could soon be made much better if they only knew of Triner's American Elixir of Bitter Wine. This remedy removes the cause of many torment ing troubles by cleaning the intes tines thoroughly, aiding -digestion and restoring healthy appetite. Your druggist or dealer in medicines car ries Triner's remedies in stock. Try also Triner's Angelica Bitter Tonic, especially in convalescence, and In case of colds and coughs take "at; once Triner's Cough Sedative!
