The Limit Of Life.

The most eminent medical scientists
are unanimous in the conclusion that
the generally accepted limitation of hu.
man life is many years below the attain
ment possible with the advanced know
ledge OF which the race is now possessed.
The critical period, that determines its
duration, seems to be between so and go;
the proper care of the body during this
decade cannot be too strongly urged
carelessness then being fatal to longevity.
Natures best helper after so is Electric
Bitters, the scientific tonic medicine that
reVltalizes every organ of the body.
