It is all the med icine I take."--MR8. CAROLINA MAETIN, Parkeraburg, W. Va. If your liver does not act reg ularly go to vour dni(®iflt and secure a package of Tlredford's Black-Draught and take a dose tonight. This great family medicine frees the constipated bowels, stirs up the torpid liver and causes a healthy secretion of bile. Thedford's Black - Draught will cleanse the bowels of im purities and strengthen the kid neys. A "torpid liver invites colds, biliousness, chills and fever and all manner of sick ness and contagion. Weak kid neys result in Bright's disease which claims as many victims as consumption. A 25-cent Eackage of Thedford's Black-'raught should always be kept in the house. irnms i FRETI C • .
