Standard Remedy
For Many Homes

Indigestion and constipation
are two conditions closely related
and the cause of much physical
suffering.
The tendency to indulge ones

people suffer at some time or an

taxed organs of digestion and
elimination. A simple. pleasant
ly effective remedy that will
quickly relieve the congestion of
poisonous waste and restore
regularity. is the combination of
simple laxative herbs with pep
