Goo, News FOR THE SIcK.-Rev. Jas
w. Huunicutt editor of that popular paper the
"Chrstian Banner" published at Fredericksburg,
Va in his editorial of March 29th 1855. thus speaks
of HamptoRs Vegetable Tinc;ure'
g The season of the year for feebleness of body
and general debility is now approaching, and we
would particularly invite attention to Hamptou's
Celebrated Vegetable Tincture' and and do feel
it duty to recommend it to all who are dyspep-
tic or otherwise in feeble state of health. We
know the ritue the supreme excellence of this me6i
eide, for have tried it to the saving of our
health, and, perhaps. life also. No family should be
without this medicine. Especially in all lower Vir-
ginis should 'Hamptons Tincture' be u.ed freely.
The medicine may appear to the purchaser to be
very dear at dollar per bottle but even at that
price consider it the cheapest medicine in all our
country We doubt very much whether it ever fails
to do good
