A Lazy Liver

Nav be only tired liver, or a starved
liver. 1t would be stupid as well as
savage thing to beat weary or starved
man because he Jagged in his work. So
in treating the tagging, torpid liver it is
a great mistake to lash it with strong
drastic drugs. A torpid liver is but an
indication of an ill-nourished, enfeebled
body whose organs are weary with over
work. Start with the stomach and allied
organs of digestion and nutrition. Put
them in working order and see how
quickly your liver will become active.
DIR. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery
has made many marvellous cures of "liver
trouble by it's wonderful control of the
organs of digestion and nutrition. 1t re-
stores the normal activity of the stomach,
increases the secretions of the blood-mak-
ing glands, cleanses the system from poi
sonous accumulationS, and so relieves the
liver of the burdens imposed upon it by
the detection of other organs.
If you have bitter or bad taste in the morn

foul breath constipated or irregular bowels
feel weak, easily tired, Respondent. frequent
headaches, pain or distress in "small OF back"
gnawing or distressed feeling in stomach.
perhaps nausea. bitter or sour "risings" in
throat after eating. and kindred symptoms
of weak stomach and torpid liver, no medi-
cine will relieve you more promptly OF cure
you more permanently than Doctor Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery. Perhaps only
a part of the above symptoms will be present
at one time and yet point to torpid liver or
biliousness and weak stomach. Avoid all
hot bread and biscuits, griddle cakes and
other indigestible food and take the wGolden
