Just year ago p. r. Trip, who

liver trouble, began in a modest way
to put up the prescription, and offer

in the medicine is thoroughly 1usti-
fed. Thousands of voluntary testi
monials have been received by the
company from grateful sufferers tes-

was ever paid to remedy than the
sworn affidavit of Mrs Matte George,
of Richmond. who. facing an opera

woman thinks of the medicine:
