Health f,, . Bottle.

One bottle of Dr. Grosvenor's Liver Aid will produce beneficial results in cases where the remedies of the Pharmacopoeia and nos trums, dependent for 8 brief success upon puffery alone, utterly fail. As its name inn plies, this medicine acts directly upon the liver, but it's action is by no means confined to that organ the digestive apparatus and the bowels are put in good working trim, the manifold symptoms of dyspepsia vanish, the blood is purified, and piles, which are the in variable result of eostiveness, are wholly eradicated by this standard family medicine.
