HEALTH AND HAPPINESS.

It seems strange that anyone will suffer from
the many arrangements brought on by an i'm
pure state of the blood, when ScoviD's BLOOD
and Liver Syrup will restore perfect health and
physical organization. 1t is indeed strength
ening syrup, pleasant to take, and has proven
itself to be the best blood purifier ever dis
covered, effectually curing scrofula, syphilitic
disorders, Weakness of the Kidneys, all Nervous
disorders and Debility. 1t corrects indigestion.
1t makes the old feel young, the young feel
gay, and will invariably drive out of the sys-
tenn the many ills that human flesh and blood
are heir to. Price of large bottle with full di-
rections. 81. A single bottle will prove to you
its merits as health remover, for it acts like a
charm, especially when the complaint ia of an
exhaustive nature, having a tendency to lessen
the natural vigor of the brain and nervous
system.
Remember we keep this excellent Blood ana
Liver Syrup for sale at our drug store in St.
Paul, and do most cordially recommend it to
our customers and all good people. MOVES
