A lady wrote us a few weeks ago from Winchester, Vas., that ahe had been under a doctor's care for 4 years for dyspepsia, the pain seemed to center under her left shoulder blade, and was so severe, at times that she could neither eat nor sleep. She had lost faith In her home doctor, and asked ns to scud her samples of our Dr.Onnn's lmprovedLiver Pills which had been recommended to her. We sent her two pills. In a few days she sent for a box. Now she writes that the pain under shoulder has left her eutirely.she enjoys her meals and never Bleeps less than 8 hours every night., and this has all come about in two weeks, and cost her 60c. for two boxes of pills. Says the doctor charged her f0.00 and that she told him lie had better take the -'0.00 and iiivcat it all in Dr. Uuun's Imprrved Liver Pills and build up his practice.
