Spring and fall are times when so
many people get sick. The changes in
the weather are severe on feeble per-
sons, and even those naturally strong
are apt, as they say, "to be feeling mis-
erable." Then then they are just in
condition to be struck down with
with some kind of fever. A bottle or
two of Parker's Tonic will invigorate
the digestion, put the liver, kidneys
and blood in perfect order, and pre-
vent more serious attacks. Why suf-
fer, and perhaps die, when so simple a
medicine will save you? Good for
both sexes and all ages.
