Hop Bitteft Co.
Dear sirs:-I have taken your most pro-
cious essence Hon Bitters-and l can already,
after go short a time, assure you that
feel much better than have felt for months.
Ihave had, during the course of four years,
three times an Inflammation OF the Kidneys.
The last, in january, 1880, was the worst; and
took q lot ofmedicine to cure the same, in
consequence Of which my stomach got
terribly weakened. suffered from enormous
pains, had to bear great torments when taxing
nourishment, had sleepless nights, but none OF
the medicine was of the least use TO me. Now,
in consequence Of taking Hop Bitters, these
pains and inconvenience have entirely left
me, have good nights rest, and am suc1i-
ciently strengthened for work, while l always
had to lay down during the day, and this al
most every hour. / shall think 1t my duty to
recommend the Bitters TO all who suffer, for
am sure i cannot thank the Lord enough that
came across your preparation, and 1 hope
He will maintain you a long time TO come for
the welfare OF suffering mankind.
Yours very truly,
PAULINE HAUSSLER, Gerb. Roster.

Among the many specifics introduced 10 the

genuine appreciation Us Hop Bitters. Intro.
duced to this country but n comparatively

pure, safe and perfect family medicine, they
have rapidly increased In favor, until they
are, without question, the most popular and
valuable medicine known. Its worldwide
renown 10 not due to the advertising IL has
received; 1t is famous by reason of Its in.
herent virtues. 1t does all that is claimed
for II. II discharges Its curative powers
without any of the OWL effects of other bitters
or medicine, being perfectly safe and harmless
for the most frail woman, smallest child, and
weakest invalid TO use. Few are tho homes
indeed where the great discovery has not
already been hailed as a deliverer and vel.
coined as friend. 1t does what others affect
to do. Composed OF simple materials, IL is n
marvel OF delicate and successful combina-
tion. Nothing is wanting. Every ingredient
goes straight to the mark at which 1t Is aimed,
and never fails. Pleasant TO tho palate,
agreeable TO tho stomach and thoroughly
effective as cure, 1t has won for itself the
confidence Of all.-Tfmes, London, Eng.
