La Grippe—La Grippe.
CHICAGO, ILL.,
MR. A. B. GIRARDEAU,
Savannah, Ga.
DEAR SIR:—My son, a man of 30 years,
was attacked with La Grippe, and believe-
ing it to be of malarial origin, took your
Johnson's Tonic as directed for Chills and
Fever. The result was he escaped the Fever
which follows the severe aching, and was
able to be at work the second day. I was
taken with the disease. Every bone in me
began to ache, and my suffering was great.
I was compelled to go home and to bed. I
fully expected to be there a week. My son
eld me of his experience and urged meto take
Johnson's Chili and Fever Tonic, I did so -
took it with regularity all through the
night—and was agreeably surprised to see
that no Fever came. I continued until I had
taken eight doses-.felt weak and exhausted,
but no fever, and aching disappeared. Next
morning I had a good appetite for my ‘
breakfast, and felt quite well, and went to
my business as well as I ever was. Since
then I have tried it with like results on two
other cases. Yours truly,
W. W. CALDWELL,
