The Shakers of Mount Lebanon,
a community of simple, honest,
God-fearing men and women, have
prepared the Shaker Digestive Cor
dial for many years, and it is al
ways the same, simple, honest, cur,
ative medicine that has helped to
make the Shakers the healthy,
long-lived people that they are.
The Shakers never have indigestion.
This is partly owing to their simple
mode of life, partly to the wonder
full properties of Shaker Digestive
Cordial! Indigestion is caused by
the stomach glands not supplying
enough digestive juice. Shaker Di-
gestive Cordial supplies what's
wanting. Shaker Digestive Cordial
invigorates the stomach and all its
glands so that after awhile they
don't need help. AS evidence of the
honesty of Shaker Digestive Cor
dial, the formula is printed on
every bottle. Sold by drugsists,
price 10 cents to 81 per bottle.
