Just full of improvements-Dr.
Pierce's Pleasant Pellets. To begin
with, they're the smallest and easiest
to take. They're tiny, sugar coated,
anti-bilious granules, scarcely larger
than mustard seeds. Every child is
ready for them. Then, after they're
taken, instead of disturbing and
shocking the system, they act in a
mild, easy and natural way. There's
no chance for any reaction afterward.
Their help lasts. Constipation, indi-
gestion, bilious attacks, sick or bill
GUS headaches and all arrangements
of the liver, stomach and bowels are
promptly relieved and permanently
cured.
