4 Very Good Reason.

The reason why only one sample bottle OF
NcrrtiFS Hcpatinc for the Liver will be sod to TIE
same person, for ten cents, by our druggists in
Brookhayen,i is because of the emo nous expense
of importing The lIepatinc into this country; but
as there are fifty doses in the large size bottles,
1t seems two cents per dose is cheap enough at
ter all for a medicine that cures dyspepsia and
liver complaint. All who have not had 4 sample
bottle az. entitled to one for l0c at all dug

pepsla, constipation, indigestion or liver COM
