Like a Drowning Man.

“Five years ago a disease the doctors called dyspepsia took such hold of me that I could scarcely go,” writes Geo. S. Marsh, well known attorney of Nocona, Tex. “I took quantities of pepsin and other medicines but nothing helped me. As a drowning man grabs at a straw I grabbed at Kodol. I felt an improvement at once and after a few bottles am sound and well.” Kodol is the only preparation which exactly reproduces the natural digestive juices and consequently is the only one which digests any good food and cures any form of stomach trouble. A. F. Long.
