It however re sulted in great good just the same. They gave away 1,000 bottles of their Diges tive Cordial to those suffering from stomach derangements. It was so effective in curing those who used the remedy that they were loud in their praises or it and in consequence a large demand for the Cordial was at once creat ed.
