Don't take another dose of
drugs. You know how they must
upset your stomach and cause
bad digestion. You know the
many disagreeable effects of
drugs, yet you go on taking
them for every little pain or dis
order. just because you were
taught that nothing else could
cure.
We have the natural way OF
curing disorders and chronic all
ments--the way nature does Il.
We cure with electricity. The
reason drugs don't CURE is be-
cause they do not help nature.
Nature needs electricity, nour-
ishment, something that builds
up. Drugs contain no flourish
ment-no electricity--just pols-
on, which tears down.
One way OF curing is to re-
store electricity where IL Is need
ed. and pain and disorders dis
appear. That's because electric
ity gives strength. power to the
body. enabling every organ to
perform Its work properly. and
when every organ Is In a strong.
healthy condition. there can be
no pain or ailment.
Wear Electra Vita while you
sleep. IL feeds constant stream
of electricity to your nerves. and
they carry IL to every organ and
tissue of your body, restoring
health and vim.
Saturate your nerves with

Owing to the fact that the expense
of holding court in Bryan county has
greatly exceeded the estimate for
court expenses. the several county
officers who draw their salary from
the court fund will be forced to Sc
cure judgment against the county
and wait until a levy is made to care
for the judgment, to get their money.
This is a circumstance for which no
one is to blame, and which no one
could have anticipated. Much better
this way, than to issue warrants af-
