them needs LIVER medicine and one of great
power. The Invigorator is such medicine il
has medicinal powers, never before discovered
that will cure all diseases of the Lirer no matter
of how long standing or what may be their form.
The active medicinal virtues extracted from the
gums used is such as to be astonishing to all who
see their effects, for none can use the medicine
without receiving benefit, 1t acts gentle Ca
thartic, and should always be taken in sufficient
quantities to operate on the bowels gently. The
best way to take it Is take the medicine in the
