“MARYLAND, MY MARYLAND.”

* * * " Pretty Wives, Lovely daughters and noble men.” “ My farm lies in a rather low and mias matic situation, and “ My wife !” Who was a very pretty blonde !” Twenty years ago, became “ Sallow T’ “ Hollow-eyed !” “ Withered and aged 1”

Befpre her time, from “ Malarial vapors, though she made no particular complaint, not being of tho grumpy kind, yet causing me great uneasiness.

“A short time ago I 'purchased your remedy for one of the children, who had a very severe attack of biliousness, and it occurred to me that the remedy might help my wife, as I found that our little girl, upon recovery, had “Lost!”

“ Her sallowness, and looked as fresh as a new blown daisy. Well, the story is soon told. My wife, to-day, has gained her oldtimed beauty with compound interest, and is now as handsome a matron (if I do say it myself) as can be found in this country, which is noted for pretty women, and I have only Dr Soule’s American Hop Bitters to thank for it.

“ The dear creature just looked over my shoulder, and says 1 1 can flatter eqnal to the days of our courtship,’ and that reminds me there might bo more pretty wives if my brother farmeis would do as I have done.

Hoping you may long bo spared to do good, I thankfully remain, C. L. James, Beltsville, Prince George, Co., Md. May 20, 1886.

None genuine without a bunch of green hops on the white label, and Dr Soule’s name blown in the bottle. Beware of all the vile, poisonous stuff made to imitate the above.
