use of that medicine on u member of my own family,
and under my own observation and superintendence,
alter the skill of the best physicians bad been ex
hausted and the usual remedies had failed, fully jus

suffeiing from that dreadful malady.
1 do not mean to say that it is adapted to all con
stitutions, or that it will afford the >arne relief in all
cases; for, of course. I can know-nothing about that

Astonishing effects of one bottle, in an aggra

PHILADELPHIA, March 20, 1855.
Dear Sir—During the last five wars I have
been afflicted with Dyspepsia , in it most aggra
vated form, and have used, without receiving
any benefit therefrom, every remedy recommen
ded for that disease. In tact, I was afflicted so
badly that on many occasions I was in great
danger of (lying from suffocation , in conse
quence of the rise of matter in my throat, and
all my efforts or relief were in vain. I was at
last induced, through the recommendation of
several of my friends, to try "Hoofland's Ger
man Bitters," and I assure you the amount of
relief I have received, from the use of only one
bottle, is astonishing, and compels me to say
that I would not be without the Bitters for any
money, as I am now, through their use, enjoy
ing better health than I have known for many
years.
Very respectfully yours,
