Engaged people should remember
that, after marriage, many quarrels
can be avoided, by keeping their d.

my wife suffered intensely from dys-
pepsia, complicated with a torpid
liver, until she lost her strength and
vigor, and became a mere wreck OF
her former self. Then she tried Ele c.

and finally made her entirely we'll. She
