"Every mau to his trade is an old adage and is
familiar to nearly all of us. 1t is brief in its word
ing but conveys great deal in its meaning 1t is
merely a terse way of saying that man who
makes speciality Of any one thing knows more
shout, and is more proficient in his particular
speciality than any else could be. 1t is for this
reason We all seek specialist when we have any
serious ply sical ament 1t is for the same reason
that the Rydale Remedy 90. went to one of the
best specialists in the o. s. liver and intestinal
troubles. a professor in Columbus, O.. Medical
College. and secured from him prescription from
which Rs dale's Liver Tablets are made. This
specialist knew more about liver troubles than a
doctor who treats all diseases. and that is why
Rydale's Liver Tablets relieve and cure more
quickly all liver troubles than the ordinary liver
