The victim of fever and ague, liver complaint
constipation, nervous prostratiOn, or general de
bility, has only to make inquiry in the neighbor-
hood where he resides in order to discover what
this standard restorative has effected in cases
similar to his own. In the published testimony
to its merits he will find Il volume of proofs of
its sanitary properties, which it is impossible
for his common sense to resist. He tries it.
and the effect it produces on his system adds
another TO tho host of witnesses in its favor

wider range attempt TO thurst into the hands

staple throughout the United Sta.es, Spanish
America, Canada, and the West Indies, but on

reasoning age the people having ascertained
what is really deserving of their confidence,
