sicians.


DR.. Tobh:
Dear Sir-You win remember that
some time ago l remarked to you that
| suffered from an uneasy, painful
feeling in my right side, caused by a
congested condition of the liver,
which prevented me from riding on
horseback and engaging in violent
exercise of any kin1. You then told
me that you had suffered from smI-
lar affection of the liver, and had
cured yourself by using certain medi-
cinal herbs which you had discovered
and urged me to try them. l did so
and am now well. These medicinal
herbs in conjunction with salines you
have since presented to the public
under the name OF "TobiD's Hepato-
zone." In doing SO YOU have con-
ferred great boon on people living
in a hot, semi-tropical climate like
ours, where diseases OF the liver are
so prevalent. It is the daily expe-
rience of every physician to find peo-
pie running their constitutions by the
rial purgatiyes. A still larger
number constantly use so-called 'hver
regulators" mostly composed of
dlOSS dllu JULIET uEdSGlC RuTSdIlNSS,
which only tend to produce piles and
other troublesome affections of the
lower bowels. To all such sufferers
your medicine viii be an invaluable
aid in restoring them to health again,
and feel assured that it only re-
quireS to be known to be appreciated,
and that people will cease destroying
their constitutions by the reckless and
dangerous abuse of mercurials now
in vogue. Hepa$azone contains no
hurtful drug, and yet it is signally eff
ficient as liver medicine. / may re-
mark just here that am not violat-
ing medical ethics in truthfully giving
you my opinion Of a rnemclne which
| have used myself with benefit, the
formula of which you did not hest
tate to show to me. Above all, it af-
fords me great pleasure to know that
you have placed your medicine (com-
posed only of costly drugs within
the reach OF the poorest man or Wo-
man. Respectfully,
The Austin weekly statesman. (Austin, Tex.) 1883-1898, 1883-11-29
INSTITUTION FOR THE BLIND,
AUSTIN, MAY 10, 1883.

Drs. TObin:
Your "Hepatozone" as gentle
purgative has no equal. 1t moves
the bowels without making the pa
tient feel sick, weak or languid. It
is often the case that we feel a little
bilious, have some headache perhaps,
and are feeling unwell generally, and
only need an easy purgative to relieve
us; your "Hepatozone" is the medi-
cine for that condition. L relieved a
case of dysentery with it in a very
short time. We use it largely in this
institution. FRANK RA-NEY,
Sup't Institution.

Drs. j. j. s. w. II. Tobin Austin, Texas:
GENTS-Enclosed find draft for $37,
same being amount in full OF our
account with you to date. Your He
patozone sells well and has given per-
fact satisfaction so far. Many claim
it to be the best medicine for what il
is recommended to do of any they
have ever used.
Very respectfully, &C.,

Sprlnger's Faith.

Springer, of Illinois, the moderately
tied ont dark horse in the speaker
islg Of the the S same state. Springer
has written mil desperandum" on his
banner, and takes courage in the fact
that the congressional convention that
nominated Riggs did so on the 152lst
ballots, and that for 1920 ballots his
name had not been mentioned.
Springer's faith, while not stronger
than Ben Buffers, requires smaller
foundation to sustain it.

Dear Sirs-Your Hepatozone has
had Il rather extended trial in this in

it has proven a safe and certain rene
dy in affections of the liver. 1t is
also valuable and cheap aperient.
1t removes constipation of the bowels,
relieves indigestion, and can be taken
at any time without any bad effect.
L cheerfully recommend its use in all
cases involving arrangement of the
functions of the liver, and in many
cases where the stomach and bowels
are involved. Truly yours.
