A Very Good Reason.

The reason why only one sample bottle Of
MFRRELL's IIEPATINE for the Liver will be
sold to the same person, for ten cents, by our
Druggists, lie because Of the enormous expense
of importing the Hepatine into this country
but as there are fifty doses in the large size
bottles it seems two cents per dose is cheap
enough after all for medicine that cures
dyspepsia and liver complaint. All who have
not had a sample bottle are entitled to one for
ten cents at our Drugstores. Three doses re-
