It is that so many products that are ex-

reason is PLAINTIFF article did not fulfill

applies more particularly to a medicine.
A medicinal preparation that has real
curative value almost sells itself, as like
an endless chain system the remedy is
recommended by those who have been
benefited, to those who are in need of it.
