Harrow Eicapo. * * * Hoohester, Juno 1, 1882 “ Tan years ago I wss attacked with the most Intense and deathly pains >n my «nd Kidnrysi “ Extending to the end of my t ea and to mv brain ! “ Which made mo deltvioua ! “ From agony ! ! ! ! “ It took three men to hold me on my bed at times ! “ The Doctors tried in vain to relieve mo, but. to no purpose. Morphine and other opiates ! “ H»d no effect ! “ Af er two months I was given up to die ! ! ! !

“ When my wife heard a neighbor tell what Hop Bitters had done for her, she at ones got and gave tn 1 some. The first dose eased my brain and seemed to go hunting through m» system for the pain. The second dose eased me so much that I slept two hours, something I bad not done for two months. Before I bad used five bottles, I was well and at work as hard as 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 asid. I met a friend and told him my case, and ho said Hop Bitters had cured him and would cure me. I poohed at him, but ho 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. It has alao cured 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 at all if these bitters are used. J J. Bkek, Ex-Supervisor.

“ That poor invalid wife, Sis'er, Mother, “Or daughter! I ! ! “Can be made the picture of heal'h ! “ with a few bottles of Hop Bitlers ! * ‘ Will you lei them stiffer ! ! !! ' Proitrcnlr the Htrindlvra ! If when you call for American Hop Bitters (see green twig 'if Hop .t on the white label and Dr Soule’s name blown in the bott’r), 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.
