Hcisag'iiiul fellow and g- nt < I v. it hit, too. which the people of the South are resenting, is tlie efforts of some to sell them imitations for the real Simmons Liver Regu lator^ because they make more money by the imitation; anil they care little that they swindle the people in selling them an inferior article. It’s the money they are after, and the people can look out for themselves. Now this is just what the people arc doing, aud merchants are having a hard time trying to get people to take the stutf they offer them in place of Simmons Liver Reg- ()l ulator—which is the “King ot Liver Medicines,” because it never fails to give relief in all liver .troubles.
