Human Prejudice.

Someone has wisely said. "There is moth
ing stronger than human prejudice" and
this is true. Especially are some minds
prejudiced against proprietary medi
oines," Because some such medicines are
shams, they leap to the conclusion that all
are. As well say, because some physicians
are quacks, all are. There are counterleits
OF all good things, even of gold coins and
greenbacks. But there is true money,
and there are true medicines. Among the
latter is Hunts Remedy, true and tried,
and with the testimonials OF hundreds who
have been healed and saved from the grave
by it, For all diseases OF the kidneys, the
liver, the urinary organs, II stands without
q peer. Physicians prescribe it, and the
sick hail it with Joy. Isn't it cheaper to
buy bottle of IL yourself, and take it &C.
cording to directions, than TO pay for your
prejudice by receiving il at the hands OF
your physician at ten times the cost2
