millions for extensive trials and experiments

this, however the German government differs
from the person who suffers from stomach,

to waste any money experimenting with this
or that remedy. For this reason most every
sufferer takes Hostetter's Stomach Bitters az
the very start, for he knows that if any medl-
cine will cure him quickly the Bitters will.
