THE MIND Asa DIsEAsE-PRO-
DCCER.

OR. Herbert A. coryn in the National
Review
We know that congested liver pro-
duces gloom, perhaps leading 10 suicide;
another kind OF gloom Is perhaps due to
congested spleen; a disorderly heart
produces apprehension OF coming danger;
certain intestinal conditions produce fear:
morbid conditions OF other organs mar
the sense OF strength and manhood or
womanliness. We know also a few con-
verse truths: That gloom or despair
may induce iaundice that good news will
make the heart beat vigorously; that
cheerfulness Will calm and regulate its
beat; that fear and anxiety may para
lyze digestion.
We know also beyond any doubt that
Beecham's Pills. the established and
staple liver regulator the world over. will
so reorganize the working system Of the
human body that congested, morbid or
disordered conditions in men and women
are absolutely and entirely removed, and
WITH the ensuing good health come bright
eyes and happy heart. Beecham's pills
are for sale the world over at a quarter
box. although on their merits they are
