Hughes writes as follows : "I was down with stomach trouble for five (5) yearc, and would have sick headache so bad, at times, that I thought surely 1 would die. 1 tried different treatments, but they did not seem to do me any good. I got so bad, 1 could not eat or sleep, and all my friends, except one, thought I would die. He advised me to try Thedlord'a Black-Draught, and quit taking other medicines. I decided to take his advice, although I did not have any confidence In it. I have now been taking Bhtck-Draught for three months, and it lias cured me haven't had those awful sick headaches since 1 began using it. 1 am so thankful for what Black? Draught has done (or me." Thedford's Black-Draught has been found a very valuable medicine for de rangements of the stomach and liver. It is composed of pure, vegetable herbs, contains no dangerous ingredients, and acts gently, yet surely. It can be (reely used by young and old, and should be kept in every family chest.
