No modicine introduced to the public has ever met with the stccess accorde 1 to Hop Bitters. It stands to- day the best known curative article in the world. Its marvellous renown is not due to the advertising it has received. It is famous by reason of its inherent vir- tues. Tt does ail that is claimed for it. It is the most powerful, speeiy and effective agent known for the building up of debilitated systems and general family medicine. . Wixstox, Forsyrue 0o., N.C., March 15, 1889.

Surxaior, Wis. Jan., 18:0. I heard in my neighborhood thst your Hop Bitters was doing such a grest deal of good among the sick and afflicted with most every kind of disease, and as I had been troubled for fifteen years with neuralgia and all kinds of rheumatic complaints and kidney trouble, I took one bottle according to directions. It at once did me a great deal of good, and I used four bottles more. I am an old man, but am now as well as {can wish. Thero are seven or eight families in our place using Hop Bitters for tneir family medicine, and are 60 we!l satisfied with it they will use no other.

CHAMBERSBURG, July 25, 1875. This is to let the people know that I, Anna Maria Krider, wife of Tobias Krider, am now past seventy - four yeara of age. My health has been very bad for many years past. I waa troubled with weakness, bad coush, dyspepeia, great debility and constipation of the bowels. I was co miserable I could eat nothing. I heard of Hop Bitters and was reaolved to try them. I haye only used three bottles, and I feel wonderful good, well and strong again. My bowels are regular, my appetite good, and cough gone. I think it my duty to let the people know how bad I was and what the medicine has done for me, so they can cure themselves with it, My wife was troubled for years with blotehes, moth patches, freckles and pimples on her face, wich nearly annoyed the life out of her. She spent many dollars on the thoussnd infallable (?) cures, with nothing but in- Jurious effects. A lady friend, of Syracuse, N.¥., who had had similar experience and had been cured with Hop Bitters, induced her to try it, One bottle has made her face as amooth, fair and soft as a child’s and given her such health that it seems almost a miraclo.
