Question Answered.

Yes, August Flower still has the
largest sale OF any medicine in the
civilized world. Your mothers and
grandmothers never thought oi
using anything else for indigestion
or biliousness. Doctors were very
scarce and seldom heard OF appcn.
dicitis, nervous prostration or heart
failure, etc. They used August
Flower to clean out the system and
stop fermentation of undigested
food, regulate the action of the
liver. stimulate the nervous and or
ganic action OF the system, and
that is all thev took when feeling
dull and bad with headaches and
other aches. You only need few
doses of Green's August Flower,
in liquid form, to make you salts

matter with you. For sale at
