food was often severe, the stomach loathng the food
and time after time throwing it up-frequently with
pain. Add to this greatly depressed spirits, with
debility, nerves weakened, restless nights, frequent
starting with unpleasant dreams. To describe my
situation is difficult. Physicians were consulted,
various medicines tried, but nothing met my case
until met with your Ohio medicine, named Drs.
Dresbach Kuhn, and Pryor's Dyspeptic Cordial.
Soon after using it my disordered stomach became
soothed. continued the mednce-a perfect cure
has been effected my health is now good and has
been for more than year. l can now use any arti-
