Good Words— Frov Good Authority — • *• We confess that we arc perfectly amazed at the mnof jour American Go's Hop Hitters. We never had anything like it, and never heard of the like. The writer (Henton) has been selling drugs here nearly thirty years, and has seen the rUtJ of Hostetter's Vinegar and all other bitters and patent medicines, but never did any of them, in tlieic best days, begin to have the run that American Hop Bitters have. * • We rant get enough of them. We arc out of them half the time. • * Extract from letter to Hop Bitters Co., TT.S.A... Ausrust 22, '78, from Bknton, Myers and Co., Wholesale druggists, Cleveland, O. Bo sure and see
