What use is there in eating when food does
you no good-in fact, when it does you more
harm than good, for such is the case if it is
not digested.
If you have a loathing for food there is 10
use of forcing it down, for it will not be di-
gested. You must restore the digestive or
gans to their natural strength and cause the
food to be disested when an appetite will
come, and with it Il relish for food.
The tired, languid feeling will give place to
vigor and energy, then you will put flesh on
your bones and become strong. The Shaker
Digestive Cordial as made by the Mount
Lebanon Shakers contains food already d.
gested and is a digester Of food as well. It,
action is prompt and its effects permanent.
Doctors prescribe LaXol because it has al
the virtues of Castor Oil and is palatable.
