SMITHS GREEN FOUNTAIN RENOVATOR
SHOULD BE TAKEN PROMPTLY BY
EVERY SUFFERER.
EVERY SUFFERER.

IF you are merely existing, we want to have q few earnest
words with you.
The numbers of people who really live is small compared
with the vast number that merely exist.
Some people seem to think that If they feel able to get around
and attend to their usual duties they oughttO be thankful. As
a matter of fact, it is the solemn duty Of everybody to be
entirely wel-tO feel the blood of health dancing in the veins
and the vigOr Of perfect strength in every member Of the body.
Such a happy condition is possible only when every organ is
doing its work properly and there is q consequent harmony of
all the functions and a full supply of pure blood.
Any piece of mechanism, particularly one so delicate as the
human body, will surely get clOgged up at times and thrown
completely out of gear.
You know very well what the symptoms are. You know, too,
that troubles OF the liver, kidneys and stomach are responsible
for your condition. You know you need cleaning out and fixing
up generally. Smiths Green Mountain RenOvatOr is
what you need. 1t will do the work better, quicker and keen
You well longer than anything else.
This celebrated remedy is made solely of roots and herbs and
is, therefore, perfectly harmless. 1t is the great body builder
OF all medicines. Those who use it have strong nerves and
muscles and never have to take any other kind of medicine.
In Vermont, where it comes from, it has been eyerybOdy's
medicine for a quarter of a century, although never advertised
until it was bought by its present owners and placed on the
general market through agents.
Its former makers were satisfied with the steady custom of
VermOnters-with the fact that no other medicine could take
its place with those who knew its merits.
