This preparation has been used in the
practice of an eminent physician for the
last twenty years, and has proven to be one
of the most agreeable stomachics and veg
etable tonics ever known.
1t Is an unfailing remedy for all disorder
ed conditions of the system arising from
Impaired Digestion, Torpid Liver, &ep
DC; and successfully removes the tenden-
cy to Fever and ague in miasmatic climates,
giving to the whole digestive apparatus a
vigorous and healthy action.
For the cure of Chronic dyspepsia, Dis
eases of the Kidneys and Bladder, Nervous
Affections, Headaches, Vertigo, Languor,
-Indisposition to exertion and all functional
arrangements of the system, it is an un
failing remedy, and will be found one of
the finest appetizers ever used.
1t is especially commended to those suf-
fering from excessive use of liquors, and is
certain remedy for restoring the normal
condition Of an overtaxed nervous system
and allaying the morbid appetite for strong
drinks. -
