A Purgative Pleasure.

If you ever took DeWitt's
Little Early Risers for biliousness
or constipation you know what a
purgative pleasure is. These
famous little pills cleanse the
liver and rid the system of all bile
without producing unpleasant
effects. They do not grip. sicken
or weaken, but give tone and
strength to the tissues and organs
involved. w. HI. Howell OF
Houston, Tex, says: s'No better
pill can be used than Little Early
Risers for constipation, sick head
ache, etc." Sold by Grisham Drug
Co.
