SOME YEARS since poor but talented gentle
man of the medical profession conceived the idea
that if he could produce medicine of universal
application and extraordinary merit, and make
it known, he could not only enrich himself and
the drudgery of ply sicians life, but
also benefit the sick in greater measure than by
his private practice. He therefore consulted
with the best physicians he could find, and the
result was the production of the Judson's Noun
tain Herb Pills, famous and most successful
medicine. lie began in a small way to make the
Mountain Herb Pills known by advertising them.
and such was the value of his Pills, that in a few
years he had not only amassed a fortune, but had
that rare satisfaction for . rich man, of having
r.l;svea the sick and benefited his fellow men
in every part of the country, thousands of
grateful testimonials could prove. The 'udson's
Mountain Herb Pills have cured Dyspepsia,
Liver Complaint Female Irregularities, and all
Bilious Disorders. This little sketch serves both
to sdorn a tale and point moral. DR.. Judson' s
Pills were meritorious and the Doctor himself
knew the value of printers ink. For sale by all
dealers. decl5dwlm.
