DON'T FORGET IT.

Ii you are troubled with nervousness, are
disheartened, tired OF life, fear death or
feel out of sorts as the saying is, you may
safely conclude that you have the Dispep-
sin or Liver Complaint. The liver is very
apt to become torpid this, season of the
year as poisons arising from stagnant wa
ter or decaying vegetation are more numer-
GUS and are through inhalation taken into
the blood. Unless the liver is strong and
active, and furnishes supply of fresh and
pure blood TO drive out the impurities,
the above mentioned symptoms surely fol-
low, and if not needed, end in more terri
BILE diseases and death. Whites Prairie
Flower proves itself the Great Liver Pana.

from any medicine ever ercompounded. Its
cures are truly wonderful. Try it. Price
