In all ages of the world the skill and scien-
tifc attachments of man have been directed to
the study of the human system, and discovery
of the various ills to which it is heir. If, after
years of constant application some distinguished
physician had succeeded il. compromising an
agent by which the slightest ache may be over
come he has been hailed benefactor of his
race, and with great propriety the world have
gladly sung pseans to his praise: This being pro-
per in the discovery of q remedy for single dis
ease, how much more indebted are the whole hui
man family to the inventor of BAKERS CELE-
DRAFTED PREMIUM BITTERS, a medicine
that has stood the test of years and proved pam
acea for Dyspepsia, Diarrhea, Cholera Morbus,
Cramp Choic, Giddiness, Nervous Debility, Loss
of Appetite and Sour Stomach, while the various
nostrums Of quacks and empires have 1ourished
for an hour and then disappeared never again to
be revived.
Bakers Bitters are now used in hundreds of
families in Virginia as their only medicine, and
that they are appreciated even by medical men
as tonic of great virtue, is abundantly attested
by hundreds of certificates in the hands of the
proprietor.
