can be avoided, by keeping their di
gestions in good order with Electric

ville, S. C, says: "For years my
wife suffered intensely from dispepaia,
complicated with a torpid liver, until
she lost her strength and vigor, and
became a mere wreck of her former
self. Then she tried Electric Bitters,
which helped her at once, and finally
made her entirely well. She is now
strong and healthy." McBride, drug
