MEDICINE
In Her Mother's Home, Says This
Georgia Lady, Regarding BlackDraugkt.
Reliei From Headache,
Malaria, Chills, Etc.
Ringgold, Ga.? Mrs. Chas. Gaston,
of this place, writes: "I am a user
of Thedford's Black-Draught; In fact,
It was one of our family medicines.
Also in my mother's home, when I
was a child. "When any of us children
complained of headache, usually
caused by constipation, she gave us
a dose of Black-Draught, which woi^d
rectify the trouble. Often in the
Spring, we would have malaria and
chills, or troubles of this kind, we
would take Black-Draught pretty regular
until the liver acted well, and
we would soon be up and around
again. Y'e would not be without it,
for it certainly has saved us lots of
doctor bills. Just a dose of BlackDraught
when not so well 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 it
> now enjoys is proof of its merit.
( If your liver is not doing its duty,
you will suffer from such disagreet

ness, constipation, indigestion, etc.,
and unless something is done, serious

Thedford's Black-Draught has been
