Abraham Brown, of Winterton, N.

he says "Docters got badly mixed up
over me; one said heart disease; two
called it kidney trouble; the fourth,
blood poison, and the fifth stomach and
liver trouble; but none of them helped
me; so my wife advised trying Electric
Bitters, which are restoring me to per-
feet health. One bottle did me more
good than all the five doctors prescrib-
ed" Guaranteed for blood poison,

strengthen the stomach and improve
