cords of reindeer sinew in such way thnt
caoh cord is stretched when tho bow is
bent and flies buck when tho bow string Is
released. AS far as wo know, no other

In some regions tho Eskimos when first
visited by white men were. still using bows
with very simple backing, merely 20 or
80 strands of twino running from ono end
of the bow to the other, twisted together

SOMETHING TO KNOW

1t may be worth something to know
that the very best medicine for restoring
the tired-out nervous system to healthy
vigor is Electric Bitters. This medicine
is purely vegetable, acts by giving tone
to the nerve centres in the stomach,
gently stimulates the liver and Kidneys
and aids these organs in. throwing off
impurities in the blood. Electric btters
improves the appetite, aids digestion and
is pronounced by those who have tried it
as the vely best blood purifier and nerve
tonic. Try it. Sold Tor SOC or 81 per
bottle at Massie's pharmacy, 1906 Jefferson

calculated to inspire respect.
