The Formula Is Plainly Printed on Every Bottle* So That the People May Know Just What They Are Taking. Imitators do not advertise their formula knowing that you would not buy their medi cine if you knew what it contained. Grove’s contains Iron and Quinine put up in correct proportions and is in a Tasteless form. The Iron acts as a tonic while the Quinine drives the malaria out of the system. Any reliable druggist will tell you that Grove’s is the Original and that all other so-called “Taste less” chill tonics are imitations. An analysis of other chill tonics shows that Grove’s is superior to all others in every respect. You are not experimenting when you take Grove’s—its superiority and excellence having long been established. Grove’s is the only Chill Cure sold throughout the entire malarial sections of the United States. No Cure, No Pay.
