past fifteen years, and think them the best
cathartic and anti-bilious remedy known.
For some five years I suffered with an
eruption Of the skin that gave me great
pain and annoyance. tried different blood
remedies, but, although gaining strength,
the itching was unrelieved. I finally con-
cluded to take thorough course Of BRAND

month took one every night, with the hap
