ache, Malaria, Chills, Etc.

Ringgold, Ca Mrs. Chas. Castor,
of this place, writes: u am a user
of Thedford's Black-Draught; in fact,
it was one Of our family medicines.
Also in my mothers home, when l
was a child. When any Of us child
rem complained of headache, usually
caused by constipation, she gave Us
a dose Of Black-D raught, which would
rectify the trouble. Often in the
Spring, we would have malaria and
chills, or troubles Of this kind, we
would take Black-Draught pretty reg
uler until the liver acted we'll, and
we would be up and around
again. We would not be without it,
for it certainly has saved Us lots OF
doctor bills. Just a dose Of Black
Draught when not so well saves a
lot Of days in bed"
Thedford's Black-Dr aught 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 its merit
If your liver is not doing its duty,
YOU will suffer from such disagree
able symptoms IS headache, bilious
ness, constipation, indigestion, ETC.,
and unless something is done, serious
trouble may result
Thedford's Black-D raught has been
found a valuable remedy for these
troubles. 1t is purely vegetable, and
ects in a prompt and natural way,
regulating the liver to its proper
functions and cleansing the bowels OF
impurities. Try it. Insist on Thed'
