German Bitters,

PREPARED BY DIR. G. NJ. JACKSON,
No. 100, Arch Street, PHILADELPHIA.
Their power over the above diseases is not ex'
celled, if e~qualled. by any other preparation IL
the United States. as the cures attest, in many
CO ses after skillful physicians had failed.
These Bitters are worthy the attention Of inva'
lids. Possessing greater virtues in the rectihca-
ton of diseases OF the Liver and lesser glands
exercising the most searching powers in weakness
and affections Of the digestive organs, they are,
withal, safe, certain and pleasant.
READ AND BE CONVINCED.
E. b. PERKINS, Marietta, o. Feb. %, 81, said:
'Your Bitters are highly priced by those who
have used them. In o case Of Liver Complaint OF
long standing, which had resisted the skill OF sew
erai Physicians, was entirely cared BY the use OF
Five Bottles"
c. l.. DRAKE, Freedom, Portage CO., o., April
23, 1862, said: "The German Bitters you sent me
la ST have not yet come to hand. have been out
of the article for some time, to the great detri-
ment of invalids. II is q medicine much thought
of and sought after in this comm Inity."

shipped me iNMaylast, are all gone. think
it is good medicine, and / am recommending it

s. French, Wooster, o., Nov, 90. 1852, said;
al have used some three or four Bottles Of Hos-
lands German Bitters for Dyspepsia and have de-
rived great benefit from their use. l believe them
to be good for all diseases for which they are ra-
commended"
W. NJ. ORR. Wooster, Ohio. October End, 1852,
said: "You ask me my opinion of the German
Bitters. I.have used them for Dyspepsia and In
