That is what a great
many people are doing.
They don't know just what

Iron BITTERs will cure
kidney and liver diseases,
consumption, rheumatism,
neuralgia, dyspepsia, mala-

Mr.. Simon Blanchard, . we'll
known citizen of Hayesville, Meade
county, Kentucky, says: "My wife
had been sick for a long time, and
her constitution was all broken

She was advised to use Browns Iron
Bitters, and found it to work like a
charm. We would not now be with
out it for any consideration, as we
consider it the best tonic in the
world"

up TO the highest point. OF course it will
cost some money, but it will be money well
