SON'S CELEBRATED TEXAS BITTERS will give
tone and action to the stomach, and promote diges-
tion. They are entirely vegetable, aud will, in all
cases, renovate the whole system, and give health
and vigor to the frame. Persons <if sedentary ha-
bits should occasionally use them, as they will
prevent depression of the spirits.
Weak and delicate persons are made strong by
using these Bitters; in fact, they are a family me-
dicine, that can be administered with perfect safe-
ty to a child, a delicate female, or an old person.
Persons visiting districts harrassed annually with
fevccjtaii agire. .willr-hr a timely use of these Bit-
ters, escape this distressing disease. Prevention
is better than cure.
Full directions for their use will be found with-
in the wrappers about each bottle.
These Bitters require no certificates of remark-
able cures; ihejCame of Dr. Joseph W. Robertson,
as their patron, is a sufficient guarantee, he having
prescribed them for many years in his private prac-
tice. wife the greatest success; and the demand for
them having la&eased to so great an extent, that
it has become necessary to manufacture them ex-
ifcenaively for public distribution.
Persons who may wish to sell these Bitters, as
agents, will please address. F. T. DUFFAD,

CELEBRATED
German Bitters.

No. 120 Arch St., one door below Sixth St. Phil.
Their power over the above diseases is not ex-
celled, if equalled, by any other preparation in the
United States, as the cures attest, in many cases
after skilful physicians had failed.
These Bitters are worthy the attention of Inva-
lids. Possessing great virtues in the rectification
of the liver and lesser glands, exercising the most
searching power in weakness and affections of the
digestive organs, they are withal safe certain and
pleasant.
