in pills, other things being equal.
But, with DR.. Pierce's Pleasant Pei
lets, nothing else is equal. They're
the best. not only because they're
the smallest, aud the easiest 10 take
but because they do more good.
They cleanse and regulate the liver,
stomach and bowels in a way the
huge, old fashioned pin doesn't
dream Of. Think Of trying to regsl-
late the system with the ordinary pill.
It's only good for upsetting il.
These are mild and gentle-but
thorough and effective. no pain-no
gripping. One little pellet for laxa-
tive three for a cathartic. The
best Liver Pill known. Sick Head
ache, Bilious Headache, Constipa-
ton, Indigestion, Bilious Attacks
and all derangcmcnts of the liver,
stomach and bowels are prevented,
relieved and cured.
Put up in sealed vials-a perfect
vest-pocket remedy, always conven-
lent, fresh and reliable.
They're the cheapest pill you can
buy for they're guaranteed to give
satisfaction, or your money is re-
turned. It's plan peculiar to Dr.
Pierce's medicines.
You pay only for the good you
get. Can you ask moreY
