as was crystal water that gurgled
laughingly from the spring
wbich quenched the thirst of the

Sickening Shivering Fits
of Ague a.nd Malaria, can be re
lieved and cured with Electric
Bitters. This is a pure, tonic
,medicine ? of especial benefit in
malaria, for it exerts a true cura
tive influence on the disease, driv
ing it entirely out of the system.
It is much to be preferred to,
Quinine, having none of this
drug's bad after-effects. E. S.
Munday, of Henrietta, Tex.,
writes: "My brother was very
low with malarial fever and jaun
dice, till he took Electric Bitters,
?which saved his life. At G. L.
