A Mineral Water that Defies Drags
Nature’s Great Blood Tonic
The recent rim# exposures in this Country have proven to all that deadly poisons
and stimulants lurk in many Patent Medicines. You never know when you might be tak
ing some of that class. >
* t Nature has made ample provision for restoring vigor and vitality to humanity, and
the public, as well as doctors, resort to Natural Remedies, when all others have failed.
Are you troubled with Dyspepsia, Nervousness, Malaria, Kidney or
Bladder Trouble, Chronic Diarrhoea or Dysentery, and above all, tkft
dreadful disease Scrofula, which has almost baffled human skill, or Diseases pecu
liar to Females?
Piedmont-Bedford Concentrated
Iron S Alum Water
you consider that disease comes
this Natural Mineral-Water
Is Nature’s Remedy for Nature's Ills. Yes, when
from impoverished or run down conditions of the system,
furnishes the system what it needs.
The analysis of this Water, shown on the bottle, tells you what Nfcture thinks
you should taKo whan sick, and the doc .or who reads it will agree.
Do you think the grouping together in this Water of 17 different minerals, which
are recognized byjnedical writers as most powerful blood tonics, could have been
accidental ? Reason answers, NO !
An 18-oz bottle of Piedmont-Bedford Concentrated Iron and Alum water contains
all the minerals of 25 gallons of the average natural water—Then why buy a barrel
of water when you can get a bottle of minerals at the trivial cost ~f
one Collar. The dose is a teaspoonful in a glass of your own spring water.
how this Water acts upon the system is not clearly known. It is judged mainly
by its works. It has cured all the diseases numerated, above, and many more, evidently
through its action as a powerful BLOOD TONIC.
We have many valuable certificates, which we will be glad to mail,, i,f you are
interested.
