speak more powerfully than volumes of bare asser-
ton or blazoning puffery The consumption of

mounted to over half-million bottles, and from
its manifest steady increase in times past it is ev-
ident that during the coming year the consump-

mense amount could never have been sold but for
the rare medicinal properties contained in the pre-

physicians in those sections of the country where
the article is best known, who not only recommend
the Bitters to their patients, but ready at all
times to give testimonials to its efficacy in all ca
ses of stomachic arrangements and the diseases re-
sulting therefrom. This is not temporary popu-
larty, obtained by extraordinary efforts in the way
of trumpetng the qualities of the Bitters, but a
