lnvigorating Aromatic Vegetable
Stonzache Bitser,,
FOR: RESTORING & PRESERVING
HEALTH
Prepared from Aromatic Bitter Herbs
UNDER THE 4 USPICIES OF An
EMINENT PHYSICLAN
Are an agreeable and palatablt
lnvigorating Tonic, prepared from
Aromatic Bitter Vegetables, com
bined with a Pure Spirit, improved
and perfected by one of our venera-
BILE and eminent physicians during a
practice of thirty years, in the latter
part of which he used those Bite,
Herbs, with unparalleled success, in
the treatment of internal diseases and
for purifying the blood.
They stimulate and regulate the
functions of digestion; impart vigor
and tone to the stomach; strengthen
the system, and are unequalled as
purifier of the blood. Ry continuing
the use of a wine glass full morning
and evening, and before meals, for a
few weeks. they will afford convin-
cling proofs Of their great medicinal
properties, and under the influence of
their hcalth-restoring qualities, that
physical condition necessary to the
enjoyment of a sound body and mind
will soon be attained.
From their purifying influence,
the skin becomes steadily smooth and
bright, and. they will gradually re-
move every trace of eruption or in
hammation from the face or BODY as
they progress in the pl,ritication Of the
blood.
!. Viewing them simply ,aS bever-
age, they equaE in richness and deli
cacv OF flavor the finer grades of

when felt in the good work of purify
