Father, Mother, and Three Sisters Dead.
Mr.. David ClaypOol, formerly Sergeant
alarms ofthe New jersey Senate, and now
Notary Public at Cedarville Cumberland
Co, n. j., makes the following startling
statement: "My father, mother, and three
sisters all died with consumption, and my
lungs were 50 weak raised blood Nobody
thought | could live. My work (ship-
smithing was very straining on me with my
weak constitution, and was rapidly going
to the grave. While in this condition |
commenced using MishIer's Herb Bitcrs,
and it saved my life. Because it was 50
difficult to get it in this little place, and
had improved so much, stopped taking il
for time, and the result is that have
commenced going rapidly down hill again.
Somehow, Mishlers Herb Bitters gives
appetite and strengthens and builds me up
as nothing else does, and must have a
dozen bottles at once. Use this eommu-
nication is you please, and if any one wants
to be convinced Of its truth, let them write
me and | will make affidavit to il, for ]
owe my life 10 Mishler's Herb Bitters.''
Thesecret of the almost invariable relief
and care of consumption, dysentery, diar-
rhpa, dyspepsia, indigestion, kidney and
liver complaints, when Mishler's Herb
Bitters is used is that it contains simple,
harmless, and yet powerful ingredients,
that act on the blood, kidneys, and liver,
and through them strengthens and invigor-
ates the whole system. Purely vegetable
in its composition; prepared by a regular
physician; a standard medicinal prepare
tion; endorsed by physicians and drug
gists These are four strong points in favor
of Mishler's Herb Bitters. Mishlers Herb
Bitters is sold by all druggists Price 81 90
| per large bottle. 6 bottles for $500.
