we can substantiate by living witnesses. The
Ambrosial Oil
Is a NASHVILLE preparation, and sold throughout
the South and Southwest by all good druggists and
general dealers. The South may be justly proud that
Or. Clark, a native Tennessean

worthy medicine, which is b< und to drive out mucho]
the worthless imported trash with which the countiy
is flooded.
