What Has Been Done In Six Months.

From the wholesale dealers and the report of the Company, we learn that the Moxie Nerve Food Company have sold 691,000 quart bottles of the food the first six months.  It's harmless, simple nature, and the happy hit of flavoring, together with its being able to check the rum thirst, and furnish a better feeling for the drinker, leaving no bad, but the the best results behind it, and being able to help that terribly tired, nervous prostration so prevalent among our woman, has seemed to be the cause of it all.  Probably no people living experience so terrible a nerve wear as ours, and what is more, very few are able to neglect their business to rest.  This is the first thing discovered yet that is neither medicine, stimulant or tonic, but a simple, harmless food, that has been able to reach this condition.  The wholesale dealers say the prospect next year looks like a sale that will dwarf everything the country ever saw.  Manufactories are going up everywhere, and ship loads are on the way here South America.  The drug store windows are full of it.  For a wonder, it is very cheap.  Manufactured 96 S. Pryor street, Atlanta, Ga., by Moxie Co.
