In support of our claim we refer with pleas ure to the letter appended to this from a well known citizen of your County. Drop a postal card and we will send a trial bottle containing four doses ol the best medicine made. THE JOHNSON’S CHILL & FEVER T0NIC CO., SAVANNAH. GEORGIA. and Walterboro, S. C„ October 9, 1908. On August 30, ’08, I contracted cold and developed Grippe was laid up fiive weeks. My bronchial tubes were badly af fected, which caused me to cough continually and prevented my sleeping at night. I tried all the old remedies which usually g/ave me relief but failed. Johnson’s Chill and Fever Tonic was recommended to me as a ^ guaranteed cure for grippe and colds and I waa purseaded to ‘ try it. After taking it according to directions for one week, I found myself entirely cured of my cold and grippe, and my sys tem in first-class condition. ’ I regard it as one of the best medi cines I have ever used in my family and can cheerfully recom mend it to anyone suffering from a like trouble or general debilitated system.
