Misher's Herb Bitters is not beverage: but
a strictly medicinal preparation, more thorough
ly adapted to the wants of the general public
than any other in the market. Unlike all other
so-caled Remedies, it is prepared under the di-
rect personal supervision of an eminent Physi-
clan. S. B. Hartman, D.. the senior proprie-
tor, is regular graduate of the Jefferson Medi-
cal College of Philadelphia, and a practicing
physician of large experience and extensive prac-
tice. In such hands the public may rest assured
that Mishler's Herb Bitters is compounded in
strict accordance with correct Pharmaceutical
principles. and that none but the choicest iners-
dents enter into its composition.
Its immense sale alone is conclusive proof that
it possesses merit of high order. Merchants,
bankers, clergymen, lawyers, clerks and others
engaged in sedentary occupations experience its
wonderful effects in relieving the depression
caused by severe mental labor; while the me-
chanic, farmer and laborer find their bodily Wig
or restored like magic by its use.
At this season of the year, when DIARRHGA
CRAMPS, CoLIcs and kindred disorders, caused by
eating unripe fruits, imprudent indulgencein cold
drinks, etc., are prevalent, certain speedy and
etfectual remedy will be found in Mshler's Herb
Bitters.
