Electric Bitters is medicine suited for
any season, but perhaps more generally
needed. when the languid exhausted feel
ing prevails, when the liver is torpid and
sluggish and the need of a tonic and al
terative is felt. A prompt use of this
medicine has often averted long and per-
haps fatal bilious fevers. No medicine
will act more surely in counteracting and
freeing the system from the malarial poi
son. Headache, Indigestion, Constipation
