An Astonishing Fact.

A large proportion of the American
people are to-day dying from the effects
of dyspepsia or disordered liver. The re-
suit of these diseases upon the masses of
intelligent and valuable people is most
alarming, making life actually a bur-
den instead of pleasant existence of
enjoyment and usefulness. as it ought to
be. There is no coed reason for this,
if you will only throw aside prejudice
and skepticism, take the advice of
druggists and your friends, and try one
bottle Of Green's August Flower. Your
speedy relief is certain. Millions of
bottles of this medicine have been given
away 10 try its virtues, with satisfac-
tory results In every case. You can
buy sample bottle for 10 cents TO try.
Three doses will relieve the worst case.
