MlII1oNA1RE,s poor STOMACH.

The won-out stomach OF the over-fed
millionaire Is often paraded in the pub
lie prints as q horrible example OF the
evils attendant on the possession Of
great wealth. But millionaires are not
the only ones who are afflicted with bad
stomachs. The proportion is far greater
among the toiIers. Dyspepsia and In
digestion are rampant among these peo-
ole, and they suffer far worse fortunes
than the millionaire unless they avail
themselves Of standard medicine like
Green's August Flower. which has been
a favorite household remedy for all
stomach troubles for over s. years. Au-
gust Flower rouses the torpid liver, thus
creating appetite and insuring perfect
digestion. It tones and vitalizes the en-
tire system and makes life worth living,
