Drugs Nature's Great Blood Tonic j The recent drug- exposures in this Country hasre proven to all that deadly poisons and stimulants lurk in many Patent Medicines. You never know when you might be tak ing some of that class. Nature has made ample provision for restoring vigor and vitality to humanity, and the public, as well as doctors, resortjto Natural Remedies, when all others have failed. Are you troubled with Dyspepsia Nervousness. Malaria, Kidney or Bladder Trouble, Chronic Diarrhoea or Dysentery, and above all, that dreadful disease Scrofula, which has almost baffled human skill, or Diseases pecu liar to Females ? - Piedmont-Bedford Concentrated Iron & Alum Water X Is Nature's Remedy , for Nature's Ills. Yes, when you, consider that disease conies from impoverished or run down conditions of the system, this Natural Mineral Water furnishes the svstem what it needs. The analysis of this Water, shown on the bottle, tells you what Nature thinKs you should talie when sick, and the doctor who reads it will agree. . Do you think the grouping together in this Water of 17 different minerals, which are recognized by medical writers as most powerful blood tonics, could have been accidental ? Reason answers, NO ! An 18-oz bottle of Piedmont-Bedford Concentrated 'Iron and Alum water contains all the minerals of 25 gallons of the average natural water Then why buy a barrel of water when you can get a bottle of minerals at the trivial cost of one dollar. The dose is a teaspoonful in a glass of your own spring water. How this Water acts upon the system is not clearly known. It is judged mainly by its works. It. has cured all the diseases numerated.; above, and many more, evidently through its action as a powerful BLOOD TONIC.
