Here’s an unsolicited letter just received from Miss B. L., who knows whereof she speaks. Bead and remember it! “My mother has used Winter- smith's from childhood. Last sum mer I was having chills and fever and tried all sorts of different medicines. None seemed to do me any good, so mother sent for some Wmtersmith’s Tonic, and soon I was up and well. I think there’s nothing like it and mother says the same. I sure recommend this Tonic to anyone who suffers from Malaria.” If you have Malaria, take that letter to heart. Get a bottle of Wintersmith’s from your druggist, and TRY it. That’s all we ask. Power a Blessing Power, when employed to re lieve the oppressed and to punish the oppressor, becomes a great blessing.—Swift.
