BRANDY AS A MEDICINE.
This now much abused Alcoholic Stimulant
WAS never intended as 4 beverage, but to be
used as Il medicine Of great potency in the cure
of some of the destructive diseases which
sweep away their annual thousands of victims.
With q purely philanthrOpic motive We pre-
sent to the favorable notice of invalids-cspe.-
cially those Athlete! with that miserable ,lis-
ease DYSPEPSIA, a specific remedy. which is
nothing more or less than
Brandy.
The aged, with feeble appetite and mere or
less debility, will find this simple medicine
when used properly,
A Sovereign Remedy

no matter with how many aw-breaking French

money that is yearly thrown away on various

with an exhaustive Dyspepsia for number of

restrict his diet to crackers and stale bread,
and rs q beverage lie used McGrann's Root
Beer. He is a Methodist and then, as now,
preached at times, and in his discOurscs often
declaimeG earnestly against all kinds of strong
drink. When advised to try
Reigart's Old Brandy,
In his case, he looked up with astOnisnment,
but after hearing OF its wonderful effects in
