A Friendly letter.
It Is with the greatest pleasure that
I notify you that I feel perfectly well
again. I had a severe stomach trou
ble for a long time and, after having
consulted doctors in vain and taken
many medicines I nearly lost all hope
to recover my health. Then a friend
recommended to me to try Trlner's
American Elixir of Bitter Wine. I
have to state that I feel , well and
strong again and wish to advise ev
erybody suffering from a stomach
trouble to use Trlner's American El
lxer of Bitter Wine. Miss Frances
Sutherland, cor. Fourth and Locust
Sts., So. Bethlehem, Pa. To us it
neems strange that Miss Sutherland
took this last remedy so late while
she could have been spared many a
pain and expense by using It at the
start of her sickness. We wish to
advise everybody never to postpone
long the treatment of diseases of the
stomach, Intestines, blood and nerves,
never to experiment with unknown
remedies, but to use at'once Trlner's
American Elixir of Bitter Wine. Jos.
