Indigestion

not only distressing complaint, of
itself, but, by causing the blood to
become depraved and the system en-
feebled, is the parent of innumerable
maladies. That Ayers SarsapariIla
is the best cure for Indigestion. even
when complicated with Liver Complaint
is proved by the following testimony
from Mrs. Joseph Lake, of Broclxway
Centre, Mich.:-
oliver complaint and Indigestion
made my life burden and came near
ending my existence. For more than
four years / suffered untold agony, was
reduced almost to q skeleton, and hardly
had strength to drag myself about. All
kinds of food distressed me, and only
the most delicate could be digested at
all. Within the time mentioned several
physicians treated me without giving re-
lief. Nothing that / took seemed TO do
any permanent good until L commenced
the use of Ayers Sarsaparilla, which
has produced wonderful results. Soon
after commencing to take the Sarsapa-
rilla / could see an improvement in my
condition. My appetite began to return
and with it came the ability to digest
all the food taken, my strength inn
proved each day, and after few
months of faithful attention to your
directions, / found myself a well
woman, able to attend to all household
duties. The medicine has given me q
new lease Of life."
