Many American families on their return from abroad bring my articles with them, for they know them pretty well, but you may not be one of these.

I do not think it will be misplaced, I make the best form of cure—an absolute one—for biliousness and headache that can be found in this year. The cure ia so small in it self, and yet its comfort to you is j so great—twenty minutes being its, limit when relief comes—that it has become a marvel of its time.
