HERE is GOOD NEWS FOR STOM.
ACH VICTIMS

Some very remarkable results are
being obtained by treating stomach,
liver and intestinal troubles with pure
vegetable oils, which exert cleansing
soothing and purifying action upon the
lower bowels, removing the obstruc-
lions Of poisonous fecal matter and
gases and preventing their absorption
by the blood. This done, the food is
allowed free passage from the stom-
ach, fermentation ceases and stomach
troubles quickly disappear.
George II. Mayr, for twenty years
leading Chicago druggist, cured him
self and many of his friends of stom-
ach, liver and intestinal troubles of
years standing, by this treatment, and
so successful was the remedy he de-
vised that it has since been placed in
the hands of druggists all over the
country, who have sold thousands of
bottles.
Though absolutely harmless. the eff
feet of the medicine is sufficient to
convince any one of its remarkable
effectiveness, and within twenty four
hours the sufferer feels like new per
son. Mayr's Wonderful Remedy is sold
by all leading druggists everywhere
with the positive understanding that
your money will be refunded without
question or bubble if ONE bottle fails
to give you absolute satisfaction. adv5
