In treating the tagging, torpid liver Il is

drastic drugs. A torpid liver is but an
indication of an ill-nourished, enfeebled

them In working order and see how
quickly your liver will become active.

organs OF digestion and nutrition. II re-

/. In speaking of Lees audacity in
attacking with a force inferior in
numbers and equipment McClellan's
thoroughly organized army in their

"From Hannibal to Moltke there
