Mr. Samuel McKenzie, Cumberland, Md., writes: “I am,6B years of age. About four years ago I began to go into decline. I suffered from dvspepsia, stone in the bladder, weak lungs and general nervous debility. Nothing I tried did me any good until I used Brown’s Iron Bitters. This remedy has made me again robust and strong, and J feel all the fire and activity of youth once more in my veins.”
