Holds Up a Congressman.

“At the end of the campaign," writes Champ Clark, M ssouri's brilliant congressman, “from overwork, nervous tension, loss of sleep and constant speaking I had about utterly collapsed. It seemed that all the organs in my body were out of order, but three bottles of Electric Bitters made me all right. It's the best all-around medicine ever sold over a druggist's counter.” Over-worked, run-down men and weak, sickly women gain splendid health and vitality from Electric Bitters. Try them. Only 5Qc.

THE BEST MEDIUM.

New Haven News: A good local newspaper beats the world as an advertising medium. A handbill will attract attention by accident. The newspaper carries your message to a waiting audience. The fence rail ad. is a corpse that can only be looked upon by a few neighbors who have to go near it. The newspaper ad. goes into the home, takes a place in the family circle, and talks right to the hearts of thousands of people who pay their money for just that kind of entertainment.
