Have in many cases defied the skill, heretofore, of the
best medical practitioners in the world, and many cases
have been abandoned as incurable.
Dr. J. WILLIAMS, Chemist and Pharmaceutist, after
studying closely the practices of Dre. Abernethy and J.
Johnston, England, and observing the nature of the dis
ease in all its stages, during a sojourn in the southern
and western portions of Ihe United States, where it pre
vails to a greater extent than elsewhere, procured from
South America certain roots and Ileitis from which lie
prepared an "Elixir," which, after eighteen years' use in
private practice, has proved itself more efficacious in the
cure of Dy spepsy than any medicine that hag ever been
prepared in any age or clime for ihe same purpose.
Having submitted ii, with an explanation ofitsioinpo
nents, to a number of physicians of Philadelphia, among
whom .were the late Drs Joseph Ilartshorne and J. C.
Morton, it lias received their eniire approval, and many
of the medical faculty are now not only prescribing it for
their patients but are using it themselves, personally and
in their families. As a tonic it is unequalled, and its
properties are of so invigorating a nature that it i 3 given
wiih perfect safety and success to the most tender infants.
The Elixir is very gradual, but certain in its action upon
the organs of digestion, the increased secretions of the
liver, pancreas and mucous membranes of the stomach,
and requires that only one dose be taken in twenty four
hour?; for confirmed Dyspopey can only he cured by grad
unity restoring the organs of digestion to a healthy state
The great success met wlib in curing the most aggravated
cases of Dyspepsy, accompanied sometimes with a high
grade of hypochondriasis, has established the most un
bounded confidence in the curative properties of this
Elixir. 111 corroboration of which read the follow ii.g testi
monials :
ATTI.STATION \VE, having used Williams' Anti Dys
peptic. Elixir with the most perfect satisfaction and suc
cess, take great pleasure in recommending it to all per
sus gulf ring with Dyspepsy, as we are fully convinced
of its mo l estimable qoalitii - in restoring the digestive
powers, removing all pains and urn.wines-, and i nput
io a healthy tone to the -i rs 1 h.

Dr. J. Williams—Dear Sir— For fifteen years pri vlotis
to 1951, I suffer'd so much from dyspepsy that I became
completely prostralcd both m mind and body, and at
length became so weakened I could not attend to my busi
ness, and was sinking into a decline, and it was believed
I never coti'd recover. Tin- best medical aid was procured
f< r me, and every means resorted to without any relief,
till I was advised to use your Elixir, and from the time I
began taking it I gradually improved till I was con pletely
restored to health. The dreadful sntferitigs I endured
from dyspepsy I cannot describe ; but I am confident that
without the use of your Elixir I should be in nty grave.
I assert that 1 solemnly believe your Elixir has saved me
from an early death I continue now in the ei j>yot nt
of most excel cot health. II N SPEBUV,
