 Where there is lot of malaria, a liver medicine Is a necessity, and I Fave never found one better than Black-Draught," continues the Okla. Acman- "It is one that I know to be ss3iable. l sure use 1t for the liver. stomach. constipation. indigestion, and H has done me world of good. We - 1t for the family. and 1t gives satisfaction.
 Most trouble, or sickness, comes 6om the liver. and If taken in time ea1 be avoided. That is why I use Blaek-Draught as l do. I am much D1eased with results obtained"
 Thedford's Black-Draught is purely vegetable. It acts on the bowels, gent. N stimulating the liver. and helps in- efeAse the normal flow of bile into the 1ntastines. It assists in the digestion of food, and relieves constipation in prompt and natural way.
