It has by far the largest sale of any remedy, simply because it is of so much value in all affections of this kind. Chronic cases quickly yield to it. Druggists recommend it and physicians prescribe it. If you wish to try its superior virtue, get a Sample Battle for qd. Large size bottle 3s. 6d. Three doses will relieve any case. Try it.
