Question Answered.

Yes, August Flower still has the
largest sale of any medicine in the civ
ilized world. Your mothers and grand
mothers never thought of using any
thing else for indigestion or bilious
ness. Doctors we're scarce and they
seldom heard of appendicitis, nervous
prostration or heart failure, etc. They
used August Flower to clean out the
system and stop fermentation of undi-
gested food, regulate the action of the
liver, stimulate the nervous and organ
ic action of the system, and that is all
they took when feeling dull and bad
with headaches and other aches. You
only need a few doses Of Green's Aug
ust Flower, in liquid form, to make
you satisfied there is nothing serious
the matter with you. Get Green's
prize almanac.
