From Summer Complaint
Mrs. Arthur Doyle, West Jeddore, N.S., writes:—
“I have five boys and they were all terribly troubled
with summer complaint.
“I used everything I could think of and I did not
know what to do until a friend advised me to get a
bottle of Dr. Fowler’s Ext. of Wild Strawberry, which
I did, and I only used one bottle and they were able
to be around again. From now on I will know what
to use. ’ ’
