It took the form of indigestion and dyspepsia. 1 had dizzy spells and headaches, and after I ate a little food it would fer ment and cause gas to form in ray stomach. I had pains all over my body, and was chronically constipated. My liver was torpid, and I felt gener ally miserable. I had doctored and had been in the hospital, but received no permanent relief. I was so nervous and. restless that at night 1 could scarcely sleep. The gas pressing under my heart caused palpatation, and when I arose in the morning I was just as tired as when I retired,' About two-weeks'ago I began to take tono line, and can truthfully state that it ha* done wonders in my rase.
