COMMON GR0G-SH0P BITTERS.


Empty Bitter bottles, of various styles, can be
found around almost every dwelling aud cabin
throughout the land. Their taste is pleasant, and
are advertised to cuce'aimosi every disease while
the manufacturers know they possess no medical
properties Whateyer. They are many disgui

not, nor cannot possibly cure any one.
Beware Of these pleasant bitters in quart bot
Ties thcg contain sting Cor your vitais, and he
who buys them carries a ''toper's grog into his
house. One ran who kaows nothing about meG-
icine, says his big bottles Of common stuff will
cure chi and icye., rheumatism and consump
ton; another, whose pottle is very fancy, cures
all impurities Of the blood, makes OLD men Young
cast ont devils, restores sight TO the blind, and
numerous otbet miracles; while vet another,
who presumes every man drunkard, proposes
TO cure cotc, iagroying nails yellow fever, heart

make no such cures, we know the people at
large are deceived and swiEdled and we de-
