I received no bene fit from tho doctors, so I decided to give them up and take Duffy's Pur® Mfllt Whiskey. It has done me moro good than all tho doctors and other autiaa^l medicines.” Duffy’s Pure Malt Whiskey is an absolutely pure distillation of malted grain, great enro being used to have every kem el thoroughly malted, thus de stroying tho germ nnd producing a predigested liquid food in tho form of a malt essence, which is tho most effective ton- io stimulant and invigorntor known to science; softened by warmth and moisture, its pal- atnhility and freedom from in jurious substances render is so that it can bo retained by the most sensitive stomach.
