the rear of the former as it was pulling
out of l'arkmani siding, near the state line.

Brutally Tortured
A case came to light that for persistent
and unmerciful torture has perhaps never
been equaled. Joe Golobick of Colusa,
Cal., writes: "For 15 years I endured
insufferable pain from Rhleumatismt, and
nothing relieved me, though I tried every
tllilng known. I came across Electric Bit
ters and it's the greatest imedicine on
earth for that trouble. A few bottles of
it comtpktely relieved and cured me."
