Swink, Okla.—ln describing how i
he suffered from indigestion, Mr
8. T. Strain, of this place, says:
"I have been a user of Blnek-
Draught for four or five years. 1
have been taking it for stomach
trouble. I suffered after eating with
bloating and a tight feeling'.
"I had spelh when I could not eat
much of anything. I had eevero
headaches. I would be nauseated |
and hurt a lot. I was in a pretty f
bad fix. / ~
"I began taking Black
aeemrd to help me wonderfully. I
hadn't found anything that benefited j
mo as Black-Draught did. I certain- J
ly can recommend it f
"There were times when I just did ™
without anything to eat until I was
I too weak to go. I WPS just miser- I
able, and when I ato, my system i
seemed clogged. v.
"I had very severe headaches.*' So
I didn't know just what to do. I
knew I couldn't work if I didn't eat. |
Seemed like what I ar>it up was bit
ter as could be. l took Black-
Draught pretty regularly and got !
where I could eat, and I don't huvo
to take it so regularly now." jvr ; w 7 ,
