vice of the United States as fol
lows: Regular army, 64,586; vol

The regular establishment con
sists of 10 regiments of cavalry,

"It is expected that by December

troops how there, will give a

Comes from Dr. D, B. Cargile, of
Washita, I T. He writes: "Four bot
tles of Electric Bitters has enred Mrs.
Brewer of scrofula, which had caused
her great suffering for years. Terrible
sores would break out on her head and
face, and the best doctors could give no
help; but her cure is complete and her
health is excellent." This shows that
thousands have proved, that Electric
Bitters is the best blood purifier known.
It's the supreme remedy for eczema,
tetter, salt rheum, ulcers, boils and run
ning sores. . It stimulates liver, kidneys
and bowels, expels poisons, help diges
tion, builds up the strength. Only 50
cents. Sold at Fetzer's Drug Store.

Best Looking Side of the Face. .
When women are having their
portraits painted they should re
member that the left side of the
face is the best looking'. Artists
always put the bestfiinishing off
and the finest shading on the left
of the profile. Actors, actresses
and public singers have been
taught to make ' a half . turn: to
the right when they wish to rrn
press the audience. - The. left
hand is more magnetic1 than tjhe
right,: and a glance from the left
eye has a charm which the right
has not. There are a few ex
ceptions; but these rules . apply
to ninety -nine out 'of one' hun
dred persons. Cincinnati ; En
