the road to recovery. Mr.. Harrington

excellent rank in his profession He
combined, with good knowledge of
the law, clear perceptions, sound COM
mon sense, and untiring industry, but

cases in the supreme court.
Mr.. Harrington was an active and ear

Good looks are really more than skin

liver is inactive you have bilious at
tack; if your stomach is disordered you
have dyspeptic look; if your kidneys
are affected you have pinched look.

have good looks. Electric Bitters is a
