Portland Me-, Feb. 1900
MR. G. K. NEwCOMB: Dear Sir-For the last
ten years have been troubled with the worst
KIND OF indigestion complicated with other
forms OF Dyspepsia and other stomach troubles.
During this time 1 have tried many remedies
but without obtaining relief.
About year ago, I commenced using DR..
AhalI's Stomach and Blood Remedy, and have
taken about seven bottles. Since which my
indigestion has completely disappeared. and
Tor eight months have not used any of this
remedy. Tell that my stomach troubles have
been entirely removed by the use of this re N
edy. would cheer1ully commend 1t to all
suffering from any of these complaints.
Very truly yours.
