Narrow E>cap«. * * * Rochester, Juno 1, 1882 “ Ten years ago I was attacked with the moat Intense and deathly pains in my back and —Kidneys. “ Extending to the end of my t ei and to mv brain ! “ Which made me delirious ! “ From agony ! ! ! ! “ It took three men to bold me on my bed nt times ! “ The Doctors tried in vain to relieve me, but to no purpose. Morphine and other opiates ! “ H*d no effect ! “ After t»o months I was given up to die ! ! ! 1 “ When my wife heard a neighbor tell what Hop Bitters had done for her, she at onc> got and gave me some. The first dose eased my brain and seemed to go hunting throng i mv system for the pain. The second dose eased me so much that I slept two hours, something I had not done for two months. Before I had used five bottles, I was well and at work as hard os any man could, for over three weeks ; but I worked too hard for my strength, and taking a hard cold, I was taken with the most acute and painful rheumatism all through my system that was ever known. •• I called the doctors again, and after several weeks they left him a cripple on crutches for life, as they said. I met a friend and told him my case, and he said Hop Bitters had cured him and would cure me. I poohed at him, but he was so earnest I was induced to use them again. In less than four weeks, I threw away my crutches and went to work lightly and kept on using the bitters for five weeks, until I became as well as any man living, and have been so for six years since. j It has also cased my wife, who had been sick for years ; and has kept her and my children well and healthy with from two to three bottles a year. There is no need to bo sick at all if these bitters are need. J J. Berk, Ex-Supervisor. “ That poor invalid wife, Sister, Mother, “Or daughter! ! ! ! “Can he made the picture of health ! “ with a few bottles of Hop Bitters ! “ Will yon let them suffer ! I I !'

If when you call for American Hop Bitters (see green twig of Hops on the white label and Dr Soule’s name blown in the bott’c), the vendor hands out anything but American Hop Bitters refuse it and shun the vendor as you would a viper; and if he has taken your money for anything else indict him for the fraud and sue him for damages for the swindle, and we will pay you liberally for the conviction,
