: DEt. C. M. JAcsbox;Dear Sir : I feel it my pleas Are
'thus, of my tiwn accord, to bear testimony to the ex
bellence of the German Bitters. Some years since,
being much affli r cted with Dyspepsia, I used, hem with
veg .( beneficial , results. have often recommended
thefflto"persorts enfeebled by that tormenting disease,
and' have heald ft•om them the most flattering testi
monials as to their great 'value. In cases of general
debility, I believe them to be, ar tonic that cannot be
surpassed. • ,• J. M. LYONS.

Church Paladilphia ; at present Pastor of the Baptist
ChUrch, Chester,. Pa. -
I have Inewn .Hoottand's German Bitters faverably
for a hitiriber of years. I have used them in my own
family, and have been so pleased with their effects
that I was fnilticed• to recommend them to many others,
and know that they have operated in a strikingly be
neficial manner.
I take great pleasure in thus ; publicly, proclaiming
this fact, and calling the attention of those afflicted
with the disease for whiCh they are recommended to
these Bitters, knowing from experience that my rec
ommendation will be sustained. Ido this more cheer
fully as kloofiand's Bitters is intended to benefit the
afflicted, and is "not rum drink,"

Church, , Germantown, Pa.
Personal experience enables me to say that I regard
the Bitters prepared by:yonns a most excellent medi
cine. ' In rinses of severe cold arid general debility, I
hnitp ' bsen greatly, benefited by the use of the Bitters,
and doiiht not they will produCe similar effects on
others. 1

Having stated it verbally to you, I have no hesita
tipn.in.writing.,the fact, that I, experienced marked
benefit from your Hooiland's German Bitters. Dur
ing a long, and tedious session of Congress, presiing
and Onerous duties nearly prostrated me. A kind
friend suggested the use of the preparation I have
named. I took, his advice, and the result was im
provement of health and renewed energy, and that
particular relief I so much needed and obtained.
Others may be similarly advantaged if they desire to
be. .. Truly, yotir friend;
