Questions Answered.

Yes, August Flower still has the
largest sale of any medicine in the
civilized world. Your mothers and
grandmothers never thought ofusing
anything else for Indigestion or Bill
liousness. Doctors were scarce, and
they seldom heard of Appendicitis,
Nervous Prostitution or Heart Fail
ure, &c. They used August Flower
to clean out the system and stop fer
mentation of undigested food, regu-
late the action of the liver, stimulate
the nervous and organic action of the
system, and that is all they took
when feeling dull and bad with head
aches and other aches. You only
need few doses of Green's August
Flower, in liquid form, to make you
satisfied there is nothing serious the
matter with you. Sample bottles
