when Mr.. Griggs goes to Washington
In tho matter of legal ability Governor
Griggs fills the bill most satisfactorily. for

MIR. Griggs was born 49 years ago in

ut Lafayette college, Easton, Pa. After

his way to the top.
In the meantime he was fostering polit

still reading law in Phillipsburg, "what

"Well, think should like to be gov

Good, p" said the other, eff 1 ever get
the chance, I'll vote for you, even if you
are Republican," He did get the chance
and kept his word
Settling in Paterson, Mr.. Griggs became
active in state politics and was finally
nominated for the legislature in what was
considered IA hopelcssly Democratic dis
trict. He carried the district, however,
much to the surprise of his own party and
was reelected several times. Then for
several years he was city counsel for Pat

MILLIONS IN MONEY SAVED.
This Method of Saving Helps
to Enrich the People.
How the People are Saving More
Money Than in Any Other Way.
a Way to Have What is Needed and
Yet Save Enormous Sums.

The great millionaire, Rothschilds, said
g To save money Is the secret of riches.''
There are few larger expenses in the
household than doctors fees, together
with the cost of filling prescriptions.
Hundreds of millions of dollars are thus
spent annually. 1t is evident, therefore,
if this vast expense can be stopped, it will
result in an enormous saving to the people.
Community is becoming keenly alive to
this fact, since the people are rapidly
learning the great truth that DIR. Greene's
Nervura blood and nerve remedy is fast
taking the place of physicians and their
prescriptions in households everywhere,
and that this really wonderful medicine
will cure in cases where even physicians
fail. People are waking to the sure and
indisputable fact that n few bottles of DIR.
Greene's Nervura will do more good in the
average case than a hundred dollars spent
in physicians fees and prescriptions.
