VINEGAR BITTERs The great merit
of Vinegar Bitters has made them the
leading medicine of the day, and re-
spectable druggists everywhere write 4:
- Then are the best and most popular
DreDarati0n in the market" They
have stood the test of public opinion
and won confidence. They sell rapidly
because they cure. II You are sick you

tiers commend themselves to the ailing
and afflicted, as they are deficient in
one thing alone, viz. the stimulant that
unduly excites The brain, and creates a
morbid thirst for spirits There is no
phase of Indigestion, biliousness, ner-

which they will not effect a cure. Iu-

want of proper action in the liver,
