When things are "the best" they be-
come "the best selling" Abraham Hare,
leading druggist Of Belleville, o. writes
Electric Bitters are the best selling bit
ters have handled in 20 years. You
know why? Most diseases begin in dis
orders Of stomach, liver kidneys, bow
els, blood and nerves. Electric Bitters
tones up the stomach, regulates liver,
kidneys and bowels, purifies the blood,
strengthens the nerves, hence cures null
titudes OF maladies. 1t builds up the
entire system. Puts new life and vigor
into any weak, sickly, run-down man or
woman. Price SOC. Sold by Chas. n.

can draw their check for ten thous

walked into Galena as a tramp a
year ago. Today he is a porter in a
hotel. Here comes a man who Dor.

to borrow ten cents more. He says
he wants to buy meal. He dimes
on liquid meals. A man who came

Last month he drew a check for
