HARTWELL South Royalton, Vermont. “*About three years ago I began to suffer with Indigestion. Food soured in my stomach, causing me to belch ; and I had terrible heart burn, with pains in my chest and arms. My heart became affected ; I had short- mess of breath; the action of my kidneys was irregular, the secretions scanty and scalding. I was knocked out, and good for nothing, when I read about ‘Fruit- a-tives’ and sent for.a box. Iuseda few and thought, ‘well, they will turn out like all the other remedies I have tried’ but to my surprise and gladness, Inoticed improvement and I continued the use @f ‘Fruit-a-tives’, (or Fruit Liver Tablets) with the result that a dozen boxes made me feel like a different person”.
