A FAMILY
MEDICINE
IL Her Eother's Home, Says This
Georgia Lady, Regarding Black
Draught. Relief From Head
ache, Malaria, Chills, Etc.

Klnggold, Ca Mrs. Chas. CASTOR,
OF this place, writes: Il am a user
Of Thedford's Black-Draught; In fact,
II was one Of our family medicines,
Also in my mothers home, when |
was a child. When any of us child
ren complained Of headache, usually
caused by constipation, she gave us
a dose OF Blacli-Draught, which would
rectlfy the trouble. Often In the
Spring, We would have malaria and
chills, or troubles Of this kind, we
would take BlaclS.Draught pretty reg.
ular until the liver acted well, and
we would soon be up and around
again. We would not be without II,
for It certainly has saved us lots OF
doctor bills. Just a dose OF Black
Dgaught when not so we'll saves a
lot OF days in bed"
Thedford's Black.Draught has been
In use for many years in the treat
ment OF stomach, liver and bowel
troubles, and the popularity which 1t
now enjoys is proof of It's merit.
II your liver is not doing its duty,
you will suffer from such disagree.
able symptoms as headache, bilious.
ness, constipation, indigestion, etc,
and unless something is done, serious
trouble may result.
Thedford's Blacll-Draught has been
found valuable remedy for these
troubles. Il is purely vegetable, and
acts in a prompt and natural way,
regulating the liver to its proper
functions and cleansing the bowels Of
Impurities. Try it. Insist on Thed-
ford's, the original and genuine. q 20
