VALUE OF MANS LIFE.

The supreme courts have recently de-
cided that the life of the average man
is worth just what he is able to earn.
A mans earnings depend to a great
extend upon his health, and it is al
ways within his power to improve his
condition. The stomach is the meas
ure of health and strength. Every man
may be bright, active and happy, II
his digestion is normal. If it is not,
Hostetter's Stomach Bitters will make
it so. 1t puts the digestive organs in
condition to properly digest and as
simulate food. Try it for constipation,
Indigestion, dyspepsia, biliousness,
liver or kidney troubles. There is
nothing just as good. The genuine
