SOME YEARS since poor bat talented gentle
man of the medical profession conceived the ides
that if he could produce II medicine of universal
Application and extraordinary merit. and make
II known, he could not only enrich himself and
e'cs the dFndgery Of ply sicians life, but
also benefit the sick in greater measure than bv
ms private practice. lie therefore consulted
with the best phi, sicians be could find, and the
result was the production Of the .uisop's Moun-
tain Herb Pills, Il famous and most successful
medicine. lie began in a small way to make the
Mountain Herb p liz known by advertising them
and such was the value Of his Pills, that in a few
years he had not only amassed fortune, but had
that rare satisfaction for rich man, of having
relieved the sick. and benefited his felow-men
IN every part of the country as thousands Of
grateful Testimonials could prove. The rudsop's
MountPin Herb Pills have cured Dyspepsia
Liver Complaint, Female Irregularities, and all
BIlious Disorders. This little sketch serves both
to sd I'm tale and point a moral. DR.. Judson's
