ed by many who have been cured of the a.

the materia medica affords for their infallible
cure. It is not alcoholic preparation, which,
while giving momentary stimulus, reduces the
system in the same ratio; but ono distinct and
different from any medical preparation ever
compounded, and which will, in most cases. ex-
tract the disease by the roots and restore the
patient pristine health. In proof Of which.

Msssrs. Seth W, Fowle i Co.,
Gentlemen Il fret made use of the Oxy-
genated Bitters some seven or eight years since.
Having suffered for twenty years from form OF
Dyspepsia, which was attended with nervous
h6aQdcne, on an average OF not less IMAM one
day in week I was induced by the unpreten.
ding recommendation of DR.. Green "to try one
bottle and if nc benefit was received, to disoon-
tinue the use.''
The Of one bottle warranted further
trial, to the extent of some three four with a
careful observance of the accompanying direc-
tions. The result was an almost entire relief
from the usual Dyspeptic sympto MS and their
depressing, painful consequences. believe
these Bitters produced an entire change in the
habits of my system and upon the active ener-
GIGS of the Digestive organs now deem my
self as exempt from Dyspepsia as most persons.
These Bitters have also been of service to other
members of my family.
