Braih-Food Nonsense.

Another ridiculous food fat has been
branded by the most competent autbori-
ties. They have dispelled the silly
notion tLat one kind of food is needed
for brain, another for muscles, and still
another for bones. A correct diet will
not only nou,ish a particular part of the
body, but it will sustain every other Part.
Yet, however good your food may be,
its nutriment is destroyed by indigestion
or dyspepsia. You must prepare for
their appearance or prevent their coming
by taking regular doses of Green's
August Flower, the favorite lnedicine OF
the healthy millions. A few doses aids
digestion, stimulates the liver to healthy
action, purifes the blood, and makes
you feel buoyant and vigorous. You
