What am I to Do?

The symptoms of biliousness are
unhappily but too well KNOWN
They differ in different individuals
to some extent. A bilious man is
seldom a break fast eater. Too fire..
Qnently, alas, he has an excellent
appetite for liquids but none for
solids of Il morning. His tongue
will hardly hear inspection at any
time; il it is not white and furretl,
it is rough, at all events.
The digestive system Is wholly
ont of order and .diarrhea or con.
stipation may he a symptom or the
two may alternate. There are oft
en- hemorrhoids or even loss of
blood. There may be giddiness
and often headache and acidity or
fiatulence and tenderness in the
pit of the stomach. To correct all
this if not effect a cure try Green's
August Flower, it costs but a tritle
and thousands attest its efficacy.
