Read the following Testimony
from DIR. HENRY Il. NOR.
RILL n Skilf0l Physician
Of New Work Civ.

In his remarks on Dyspepsia he says-The
most effectual medicine to improve the tone
and energy of the stomach, is that prepared
by DR.. Geo. B. Green, of Windsor, VT, and
called the Oxygenated Bitters
would publish the recipe for preparing
this valuable medicine, if knew what it
was, but as l do not, can only recommend
its use 1t seems to me to be improperly
called "Bitters," at least in the common
acceptation Of that term, for it contains no
Alcohol or other spirit, and is rather sour
than bitter Though here, by the way,
cannot too earnestly caution the Dyspeptic
sufferer, against using the thousand and one
/" Sherry Wine," and other advertised Z" Bit
ters," the basis of which is Alcohol, or other
Ardent Spirit. They no more impart real
energy to the stomach, than q whip gives
strength to horse. The stimulation which
they excite is only temporary and sure to be
followed by reaction, which at length will
inevitable wear out the stomach. The med
icine of which am speaking, obviates these
objections, 1t has been analyzed by that
distinguished chemist, prof. Hayes, M. D.,
State Assayer of Massachusetts,, who de-
clares, that " the medicinal articles used are
those prescibed by the most eminent physici-
ans, for the relief from, and cure of, the dis
eases for which these Bitters have been 30
with this medicine, has satisfied me that the
articles must be combined in very different
proportions from those usually employed, or
that they are brought together in such q
manner, that some new product results from
their combination. For in no other way can
account for the astonishing efficacy which
I am certain they possess. have employed
them in a multitude of cases, and have un-
iformly found, that when used according to
the directions, they gradually, but surely,
| remove, one by one, the various distressing
symptoms which luster around the confirmed
Dyspeptic, restored to the stomach its lost
energies, and thus lead the patient back to
the enjoyment OF permanent health and
strength.
In addition to my own experience with
this medicine, which has led me to think of
| it so highly, would state that it has also
been used by the following persons, and re-
ceived their unqualified appreciation
