Happy New Year.
Not being urged by the universally
accepted custom, but by pure grati
tude toward all my friends and patrons
I desire to extend to them my heart
felt wishes for a happy and prosperous
new year. May all their undertak
ings meet with success and may all be
able to do their share toward the well
fare of humankind. I have received
during the last year more proofs of
friendship than ever before and only
by such a rich support was able to
bring my specialty, Triner's Ameri
can Elixir of Bitter Wine, to the acme
of prefection and to introduce it to
many thousands of families. I was
able to show that it is the best family
remedy, because it regulates the di
gestion, strengthens the nerves and
constantly renews the blood. If you
will use it as soon, as tbe slightest de
viation of appetite or a decline of
your faculties or of love for work will
be noticed, you will check tbe advance
of many diseases. It protects you and
upholds your strength and vitality.
