take, and bad to have taken. In
efficient, too. It's only temporary
relief you can get from it.
Try something better. With DR..
Pierce's Pleasant Pellets the benefit
is lasting. They cleanse and regu-
late the liver, stomach and bowels.
Taken in time, they prevent trouble.
n any case, they cure it.
And they cure it easily they're
mild and gentle, but thorough and
effective. There's no disturbance
to the system, diet or occupation.

q laxative three for a cathartic.
Sick and Bilious Headache, Consti-
patton, Indigestion, Bilious Attacks,
and all arrangements of the liver,
stomach and bowels are promptly
relieved and permanently cured.
They're purely vegetable, per-
fectly harmless, the smallest, and
the easiest to take-but besides
that, they're the cheapest pill you
can buy, for they're guaranteed to
give satisfaction, or your money is
returned. You pay only for the
good you get. This is true only
of DR.. Pierce's medicines.
