. A Fiendish Attack. An attack was lately made on C. F. Collier of Cherokee, lowa, that nearly proved fatal. It came through his kidneys. His back got so lame he could not stoop without great pain nor sit in a chair except propped by cushions! No remedy helped him until he tried Electric Bitters which effected such a wonderful change that he writes he feels like a new man. This marvelous medicine cures backache and kidney trouble, purifies the blood and builds up your health. Only 506. at A. F.

Now it promises to be [ permanent unless some scheme is de- | vised for enlarging the White House I by building wings or extensions.
