T. we kuow they will unhesitatingly agree with us when we assert that there is no better remedy on the market. R. L. T. is a medicine prepared by a Physician's prescription (Dr. J. M. Richardson, or Anderson, S. C.) which he used with wonderful success for at least 25 years. We are daily receiving good reports about this medicine and we know if all who are in need of a Liver medicine (most of us are) wouud give R. L.

It aids and cures Indigestion, cleuuses the Liver of all im-1 purities and a better tonic cannot be found. It tones up the whole system and prepares you for spring weather. Now, we insist that you try R. L. T., beginning at once, and if after a fair trial you are not satisfied tell us, and we will cheerfully and promptly return your money without question.
