DINNEFORD'S INDIAN .TONIC,
for Weak Stomachs, Flatulency, Indigestion, Loss of Ap.
petite. Nervous Affections, and Constitutional Debility.
Of Medicines in general use, there are noneperhaps more valuable than
safe and effective tonics; they improve and invigorate the constitution
when impaired by the effects Of climate, long use of medicine, protracted
disease, or the ordinary decay of nature. The Indian Tonic is a prepara-
tion of aromatics indigenous to the East Indies, where their combined
effects have been witnessed for many years by a Physician of extensive
practice in all complaints arising from weak stomachs, flatulency, loss of
appetite, indigestion, nervous affections, and general debility.. To elderly
persons it imparts a genial warmth, and gives a tone and vigour to the
constitution. In alleviating sea-sickness it has been found most successful.
