FIRST THING THE DOCTOR DOES

Is to ask how your bowels have been
and then prescribe a laxative. He
knows that most all diseases come
from constipation, which clogs the liy-
er and fills UP the system with filth
and poison. Take Bailey's Laxative
Tablets, cure your constipation and
your other troubles will vanish. 10c
size, 20 tablets. Csc size, go tablets.
