whole physical system, simply because of its
wonderful power to purify, enrich and vital
iZe the blood, create an appetite and invigo-
rate the digestive function. We advise you
to get a bottle and try it If you are not feel
ing just right. 1t will do you more good
than a six weeks vacation. 1t is the best
medicine money can buy. d
