An Important Fact.

DR.. Flagg's Liver Pad has wonderful
influence on the blood. 1t not only
pnrifies without weakening it, but it
remove all noxious particles from the
chyle before it is converted into fluid, ,and
thus makes impure blood an utter i'm
possibility. As there is no deliberation
SO thera 10 no nausea or sickness attend
ing the operation of this most excellent
Liver Pad, which never strains or tortures
the digestive organs but causes them
to work in perfectly natural manner
hence persons using them do not become
pale and emaciated, but on the contrary
they invigorate the body, and robust
health is the result. DIR. Flagg's Office
