take plain food without suffering great distress
but had become so debilitated as to be almost I'M

After trying variety of sO-called remedies all
Of which proved worthless, was induced. at the
suggestion Of a medical friend. to give HOOflands
German Bitters trial. | accordingly purchased
six bottles. which were taken in accordance with
your directions.
The result was complete removal Of all distress

restoration Of strength, so that now eat all ore
binary kinds of food with impunity, and am able
to attend to all the active duties of q large and
arduOus business well as at any period of my
