^ Bad ■ stubborn case
of constipation aft«r a
very severe spell cf grip,"
says Mr. John B. Hutchi
son, of Neosho, Mo.
"When I would get consti
pated. I’d feel so sleepy,
tired and worn-out
"When one feels this
way, work is much harder
to do, especially farm
work. I would hnve dizzy
headaches when I could
hardly eee to work, but
after I read of Black
Draught, 1 began taking
it I did not have the
headache any more.
"When I have the slug
gish, tired feeling, I take
a few doses of Black
Draught and it seems to
carry off the poison and I
feel just fine. I use Black
Draught at regular inter
vals. It is easy to take
and 1 know it helps me."
This medicine is com
posed of pure botanical
roots and herbs.
