Com’r internal Rev. Washington, D. C., Sept. 24,1879. D. at Sir—Why don’t you get a certificate Irom Col. W. H. W., of Baltimore, showing how he cured himself of drunkenness by the help of Hop Bitters. His is a wondertul case. lie is well known in Rochester, N. Y., by all the drinking people there. He is knewu in this city, Cincinnati, New Orleans, New York; in fact, all over the country, as he has spent thousands of d/tlars for rum. I honestly believe his card would be worth thousands of dollars to you in tills city aud Baltimore alone, end make thousands of sober men by inducing the use of you* Bitters. J. A. W. Mit.ton, Del., Feb. 10, 1889. Having used Hop Bitters, the noted remedy for debility, nervousness, indigestion. etc., I have no hesitation in saying that it is indeed an excellent medicine, and recommend it to any one as a truly tonic bitters. Respectfully, Rev. Mbs J. 11. Ellgood. I declined to insert your advertisement of Hop Bitters last year, because I then thought they might not be promotive of the cause ol Temperance, but find they are, and a very valuable medicine, myseif and wife having been greatly benefited by them, and I take great pleasure in making them known. Rev. John Seaman. Editor Home S.n'inel , Alton, N. Y. Scipio, N. Y., Dec. 1, 1879. I am the pastor of the Baptist church here and an educated physician. I am not in practice, out am my sole family physician, and advise in many chronic cases. Over a year ago I recommended your Hop Bitters to :ny invalid wife, who has been under medical treatment of Albany’s best physicians several years. She has been greatly benefited and still uses the medicine. I believe she wi l i become thoroughly cured of her various eomplicated diseases by their use. We both recommend them to our Irionds. many of whom have also been cured of their various ailinenls by them. I(ev E. R. Warren. Cured of l>riii Icing. “A young friendof mine was cured of an insatiable thirst for liquor that had so prostrated his system that he was unable to do aoy business. lie was entirely cured by the U 3» of Ilop Bitters. It all tyed all that burning thirst; took away the appetite for liquor; made his nerves steady, and he has remained a sober and steady man for more than two years, and has no d< sire to return to his cups, and I know of a number of others that have been cured of drinking by if .” —From a I,endin') Railroad OJfi i'll , ( hicn/jo Id. Wicked for Clergymen. “ I believe it to be all wrong and even wicked for clergymen or other public men to be led into giving testimonials to quack doctors or vile stuff-t called medicines, but when areally meritorious article is made up of common valuable remedies known to all, and that all physicians use aud trust in daily, we should freely commend it. I therefore cheerfully and heartily commend Hop Bitters ior the good they have done me and my friends, firmly believing they have noequal for fainilv me. I will not be without them. llev. , Washington, D. C.” A good Baptist clergyman, of Bergen. N Y., a stronir temperance man, suffered with Kidney trouble, neuralgia and dizziness almost to blindness, over two years after ho was advisid that Hop hitters would cure him. because lie was afraid of and prejudic <1 against the word “ bitters.” Since his cure he says none need fear but trust in Hop Bitters.
