I bad indigestion, and had it bad,"
(ayi Mrs. E. S. Holman, of this place.
"Everything I ate hart me. I would
have burning in my stomach and
?mothering spells, and after meals feel
right dizzy. Jly head would begin to
u&e, and I would want to lie down,
}ut felt I couldn't for I would smother.
"Unless one has had such trouble,
they don't know what It is. I was
talking to a neighbor one day and told
her how I had been affected. She
told me It was Indigestion and to try
Black-Draught, which I did. I took a
few large doses and then a pinch after
meals, and for fully four months now
I haven't had indigestion. I eat what
ever I please and when I please, but
keep op the Black-Draught?just an
occasional dose."
When you have a feeling of discom
fort after meals, try the suggestion
above. Thousands of people have
found that Black-Draugnt promotes
relief In indigestion by stimulating the
liver and stomach to perform their
normal functions.
