Comes from DR.. D. B. Cargile of Was
hita, l. T. We writes: "Four bottles of
Electric Bitters has cured Mrs. Brewer of
scrofula, which had caused her great suf-
fering for years. Terrible sores would
break out on head and face, and the best
doctors could give her no help; but her
cure is complete and her health is excel
lent" This shows what thousands have
proved, that Electric Bitters is the best
blood purifier known. It's the supreme
remedy for eczema, letter, salt rI,eum,
ulcers, boils and running sores. 1t stimu-
lates liver, kidney and bowels, expels
poisons, helps digestion, lullds up the
strength. Only SOC. Sold at Shaw's
