Enot:9er Rosoue from Death.

In 1881, while sewing on & machine, my wife
was soon followed by hcmorThages from her
lungs severe cough fever, and she could nei-
Their eat FOR sleep, and in few weeks she was
reduced to a living skeleton. Her stomach re-
fused to retain any food, and the ph ysician
thought enc of her lungs was entirely gone.
At a final consultation of two physicians, her
case was pronounced hopeless. tried Brewers
Lung Restorer, by advice of one of tho physi-
clans, and she began to improve after the third
dose. She continued the medicine, and is now
IN excellent health, and is better than she has
been in several years. believe Brewers Lung
Restorer saved her life.

fellow townsman, Mr.. 0. B. Ste
vens:
"Mr. Stevens is one of the fore
most citizens of his section, and
has been identified for long years
with the best interests of his place
and people. His reliability is one
of the browning virtues of his life,
and in the various positions OF
trust and honor that he has held
in the past he has been found ever
faithful in them all. In the social,
intellectual, religious, commercial
and agricultural interests of his
people Mr.. Stevens has ever held
the first place, and his people are
ever glad to honor HIM"

Your Hepatozone as a gentle purga

els without making the patient feel
sick, weak or languid. 1t is often the
case that we feel little bilious, have
some headache perhaps, and are feeling
unweu generally, and only need an

AUSTIN, Tex, May IL, 1882.
To whom 1t may concern
d hereby take great pleasure in at
testing the worth of Drs. J. j. & w.
H. Tobin's Hepatozone 1 suffered for
several months, during the past winter
and spring, from dull, heavy head
ache, severe pain in my eyes upon
awakening in the morning, pain in my
sides and small of my back, and tongue
heavily coated, all of which, 1 am con-
fident, was produced by a deranged
and torpid state of my liver. At the
request of DIR. Tobin, l used a few
doses of his medicine, and, to my graft
fication, found myself entirely free
from the ills above enumerated and
my whole system in healthy condi-
ton. To all " no are thus afflicted ]
earnestly recommend trial of Hepato-
zone. Very respectfully,

HEPATOZONE has since it's intro
duction, proved one of the most valua-
b medicines discovered. Its merits
and success has b en- as gratifying to
the proprietors as its effects have
proved beneficial to those using it; al
most d lily testimonials are received,
speaking in the highest terms of its
efficacy in its action on diseases for
doubt of the value of Hepatozone 1t
action, and there is not to-day a medi-
cine which can equal it as regulator
of the liver and corrector Of the bow
les. AS an indication of its worth, we
will state that though every bottle is
of over 10000 bottles sold, we have had
append few unsolicited testimonials
of its value:
From DR.. Callahan, formerly of this
place:
LULING, Tex, Nov. 25, 1883.
Drs. j. j. & w. II. Tobin. Austin:
Gentlemen-I 0eSlre TO give you my
unsolicited testimonial to the virtue of
your great medicine, Hepatozone. My
mother, who lives at Lafayette, Ala,
has been a great sufferer from liver
trouble for four years, physicians abso-
lutely failing to give her relief. Hav-
ing heard of the cures effected by your
medicine, procured four bottles and
sent them for her to try, urging her to
give them fair trial, and now she
writes me as follows: "Thanks to that
wonderful medicine you sent me, my
health is greatly improved; the pain in
my side, which the doctors here could
not relieve, has entirely disappeared,
and feel like l had new lease on
life" 1 have heard from my mother
since the above was written, and she
regards the cure as complete. Many of
my friends at this place use Hepato-
zone with great satisfaction, and pro-
nounce it one of the very best of liver
medicines. Respectfully,
2. II. CALLAHAN,
Dentist, Luling, Texas.
