Dyspepsia and all its train of horrors
vanish away daily by the cures effected
by Edward Wilder's Stomach Bitters.
They cleanse the liver, give vigor to
digestion, and impart tone to the stom.
ach. So perfect is the amalgamation of
the various drugs and medicaments
contained in these Bitters, without de-
priving them of their separate value,
that they perform their beneficial ef-
feet on all the digestive organs at the
same time. The arrangements of the
stomach and liver are the cause of all
the nervous and brain disorders. Para.
lysis, apoplexy, epilepsy. and cholera
arise from neglected gastric affections
in the first place, and are always re.
lieved and often cured by attention to
the digestive organs. These inYalua-
bic Bitters are the most potent medi
cines in the world for this purpose, and
never fail in their effect. Appetite il
restored and health guaranteed.
