the noticeable Improvement in his

indigestion and various organic disorders.

indoors and under severe mental strain,
while The physical development is
sadly in eed OF something to keep 1t in
trim. Well. that has been my complaint
for years. and sOn.e months ago l
became very bilious, and constipation
made life miserable for at times.
Then ii took u seat in my LIVER, which
became noticeably inactive, and l became
alarmed about it. The first thing 1
turned my attention to was to secure
liver regulator which. however, failed
to regulate; next l sought relief in
liver pills. which so painsd .to,S. and griped
than the disease. The next thing l
did was to throw away the whole
shooting match, and resolved to take
no more proprietary medicines. However,
on hearing my tale Of woe one day ut
the office. a fellow workman offered me
small Tabule-Ripans. he called it
which, he said, he would guarantee to
act on the liver. l took it under protest,
expecting to be doubled up in about
fifteen minutes with the gripes.' But
was agreeably surprised In its action.
It was very gentle, and resolved to try
q box Since then have gradually noted
an entire change in the working of my
system, and think that Ripans Tabules
are the best remedy for liver and
stomach troubles this side of anywhere.
They are really a substitute for physical
exercise. Have one before you goT'
