A FAMILY
MEDICINE
b Her Mother's Home, Says This
Georgia Lady, Regarding BlackDraught.
Relief From Headache,
Malaria, Chills, Etc.
Ringgold, Ga.? Mis. Chas. Gastoif,
of this place, writes: "I am a user
of Thodford'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 would
rectify the trouble. Often in the
Spring, we would have malaria and
rMlls nr 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. We would not he without it,
for it certainly has saved us lots of
doctor hills. 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 treatment
cf 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 disagreeable
symptoms as headache, biliousness,
constipation, indigestion, etc.,
and unless something is done, serious
trouble may result
Thedford's Black-Draught has been
found a valuable remedy for these
troubles. It is purely vegetable, and
acts in a prompt and natural way,
regulating the liver to its proper
functions and cleansing the bowels of
impurities. Try it. Insist on Thed?
ford's, the original and genuine. E 7>
