COMMON eFoG-saoP BTTTBRs

Empty Bitters Bottles, of various styles,
can be found around almost every dwelling
and cabin thT ughoHt the land. Their taste
is pleasant, and are advertised to cErc almost
every disease, while the manufacturers know
thay possess 10 medicinal properties what
ever. They are so many dsguiscs for ex-
ccedingly ommon beverages which do not,
nor cannot possibly cure any one.
Beware of these pleasant bitters in q"art
bottles they con ain sting for your vitals,
and he who buys them carries a 'toPer's''
grog into his mouse. One man who knows
nothing about medicine, says his big bottles
of common stuff will cure chills and fever,

whose bottle is very fancy, cures all inPur
tiles of the blood, makes oil = men young,
