Seekers After Health.

Unfortunates who are seeking to renew
their health, are many. So often have they
been deceived by the advertisements of WORTH
less compounds. that many are discouraged,
and refuse to believe anything they read in
the papers. Therefore. the best advertise
ment of really good medicine i. the
reputation it has gained in places where it is
being sold. No other remedy ever discovered
has grown so rapidly in public favor as that
true medicinal tonic called Browns Iron

by those who have been in ill-health, the
sale is unprecedented. One druggist in our

and refreshing in its effect, and strengthens
