A s soon as it became known that I had the medi cine for free distribution, there began a great run on it, which continued until it was about all gone. Eyery one, so far as I heard from them, testified to its virtues, declaring it the best medicine for the purpose they had ever used. Those who got it shared it around with their neigh bors, so that I am confident it was pro ductive of great good. We used some of it ourselves and found it not only an ex cellent medicine for diarrhoea, but for nil kinds of pain and une6inees in the stomach and bowels. It has been regard el as ths best medicine known here for the diseases it is recommended. For sale by F. G. Fricke & Co.
