Is Life
Worth living7

That depends upon the
Liver. If the Liver is
inactive the whole sys-
tenn is out of order-the
breath is bad, digestion
poor, head dull or aching,
energy and hopefulness
gone, the spirit is de-
pressed, a heavy weight
exists after eating, with
general dependency and
the blues. The Liver is
the housekeeper of the
health; and a harmless,
simple remedy that acts
like Nature, does not
constipate afterwards or
require constant taking,
does not interfere with
business or pleasure dur
ing its use, makes Sim
mons Liver Regulator a
medical perfection.

ono of tho trusted captains of Joan
dare In 1882 he was reported to

named Frolati, ne pledged all but his
soul to the devil in exchange for
wealth equal to the one ho had spent.
His career from that time became
that OF demon. Children and young
women were invcfgled into his house
and killed 1t Is relatcd that the
