Yes. August Flower still has tire larg-

mothers never thought of using any
thing else for Indigestion or Bilious

seldom heard of appendicitis. Nervous

used August Flower to clean out the
system and stop fermentation of undi-

liver, stimulate the nervous and Or

all they took when feeling dull and bad
