In Brief, and to the Point.

Dyspepsia is terrible. DisorGered
liver is misery. Indigestion is a foe to
good nature.
The human digestive apparatus Is
one of the most complicated and Won
derful things in existence. 1t is easily
put out Of order.
Greasy food, tough food, sloppy food,
bad cookers, mental worry, late hours,
irregular habits, and many other
things which ought not to be, have
made the American people a race of
dyspeptics.
But Green's August Flower has
done q wonderful work in reforming
his cad business and making the
American people so healthy that they
can enjoy their meals and be happy.
Remember:-No h~sppiless without
heath. But Green's August Flower

dyspeptic. Ask your druggist for a
