that's the condition of liver, stom-
ach and bowels, when DR.. Pierce's
Pleasant Pellets have done their
work. It's work that isn't fin
ished when you've stopped taking
them, either. It's lasting. They
cure, as we'll as relieve. And it's
all done so mildly and gently !
There's none of the violence that
went with the old-time pill. One
tiny, sugar-coated Pellets gentle
laxative three to four act as a
cathartic. Sick Headache, Bilious
Headache, Constipation, Indiges-
ton, Bilious Attacks, and all de-
rangements of the stomach and
bowels, are prevented, relieved and
cured. AS a Liver Pill, they're UNI
equaled. They're purely vegetable,
perfectly harmless = the smallest,
cheapest, and easiest to take.
They're the cheapest pill you can
buy, because they're guaranteed to
give satisfaction, or your money is
returned.
You only pay for the good you
get. Can you ask more?
That's the peculiar plan all DR..
Pierce's medicines are sold on.
