To be bound hand and foot for years
by the chains of disease is the worst
form of slavery. George D. Williams, of

that she could not turn over in bed
al"ne. After using two bottles of Elec
tric Bitters she is wonderfully improved
and able to do her own work." This
supreme remedy for female diseases
quickly cures nervousness, sleeplessness,
melancholy, headache, backache, faint
ing and dizzy spells. This miracle
working medicine is a godsend to weak,
sickly, run down people. Every bottle
guaranteed. Only 50 cents. Sold by
Van Werden druggist.
At 33$ Off.

Seat of Life
Is in the nervous system, the most delicate and important
part of the whole body. When the nerves become weakened or
diseased, the head aches, the circulation is retarded and the
digestion is deranged. Little things irritate the temper and worry
the mind, which only aggravates the disease until the whole sys
tem breaks down, and nervous prostration is followed by insanity
or death. Strengthen'*and build up the nerves and stop this
downward course before it is too late.
"My nervoua system was wrecked by a severe attack of
La Grippe, my heart became affected and my digestion was
deranged. It was almost impossible to get any sleep and I
run down in flesh and strength. Seeing an advertisement of
Dr. Miles' Nervine I began taking it, and was relieved at
once. A few bottles of Dr. Miles' New Heart Cure made me
feel like anew man and I gained 25 pounds in weight."
JOHN STEVENS, Sharpsville, Pa.

strengthens the weakened nerves, rests the tired brain,
gives zest to the appetite and puts new vim and vifor
into the whole system. Begin to-day to get new life.
