Story Of a Slave.

To be bound hand and foot for years by the
chains of disease is the worst form Of slavery
George D. Williams, of Manchester, Mich,
tells how such slave was made free. He
says: "My wife has been so helpless FOR FIVE
years that shs could not turn over in bed alone.
After using two bottles of Electric Bitters, she
is wonderfully improved and able to do her
own work." This supreme remedy for female
diseases quickly cures nervousness, s!eepless
ness. melancholy, headache, backache, fainting
and dizzy spells. This miracle working med,-
cine is a godsend to weak. sickly, run down
people. Every bottle guaranteed. oaly SOC.
