oNYGEN ATED BITTERs.

A QrEnY. Why will you suffer? Dyspepsia is
a brief but comprehensive term for the numerous
diseases which affect the stomach. liver, and in
fgct the whole human system. Until DR. Green

efforts to this disease. The Dyspepic need
suffer no longer with disease that is always pain
full, and frequently fatal affection.
This unique and peculiar compound will as GER
taiuly cure the disease as the disease exists. Had
it not this power such testimony as follows woul

is the reason they arc 80 noisy Of late"
"Sound defective! not hear ?" reiterated
