VNHESE Bitters are purely a vegetable cam
Il pound, and are offered to the public from
principle Of benevolence, under the fullest convic-
ton that they will be found safe and sovereign
remedy for Dyspepsia. They have been trium-
phantly tested not only by some Of the most re-
spectacle families and physicians in the State Of
South Carolina, VINO have furnished ample testi-
mony to their decided excellence, hut also by the
proprietor, who, for ten years, suffered all the gloom
incident to that stubborn and distressing disease.
They possess the peculiar excellence, denied to
most other Bltters Of not proving injurious by CON
tinued USE They contain not "a single delelerious
ingredient, and, as seen from the directions which
accompany each bottle, may be given with entire
safety to an infant in the month.

From the Hon. William Pope, Sen


! cheerfuIy offer my testimony in favor of the
Colleton Biers. | have been using these Bitters
in my family for seven eight years, with much
satisfaction. | have experienced great benefit my
self from their use, and | know of no medicine that
SO certainly affords relief in Dyspepsia. | think it
also valuable medicine among children. No
planter should be without it, In the summer of
1889 little boy of about eighteen months old, who
had been long sick, and for whom every thing had
been done that it was supposed could benefit him,
and had become SO feeble and low that we had no
hopes Of his recovery; he had appetite, and was
apparently unable to take or digest any food, we
were induced to try the Colleton Bitters We soon
observed an improvement, and in short time he
was restored to health by the use Of the Colleton
Btters alone, and has since then continued to en-
JOY uninterrupted health, and is now a hearty and
promising boy. | have found that when the chill
dren of my family cat, they sometimes do, more
than they ought, or what disagrees with them, a
small dose of these bitters invariably relieves them
in short time. WIN. POPE, Sen.
