DODD'S
 NERvINE
 ONCE MORE

The standard remedy for bilicusness with the medical profession is the ambitious pill of the American pharmacorea. And its rep utation has been we'll enough deserved. But it is pill, nevertheless, and most people of sensibility feel something about as big as a
 meeting house coming into their throats when ever pill is spoken of. Dodd's Nervine and Invi igorator acts efficiently on the billiary or ganism; it initiates neither stomach or i1tes- tine in its operation; and what is very impor- tant, as all good nurses know it is agreeable to take, being as pleasant to the pal ate as any delicate wine. We all know how it is with Cod Liver Oil. In pure state it is excellent for certain conditions of debility, and particu- larlysin tendencies to consumption; and yet many of the best physicians decline to pre- scribe it. because it SO dreadfullv sickens the patient. That, they say, makes it do more harm than good. With Dodd's Nervine all this becomes obsolete. 4 &11~5 @ ~s ~s
