True Secret of Keeping

"The real secret of keeping young-looking

active. Without these. requisites, poisonous
waste products remain in the system, pollut-

nervous, mentally sluggish. dull-eyed, wrinkled
and sallow of face.
But to get liver and bowels working as
they ought, without producing evil aiter-effects
has been the problem. Fortunately, there is
n prescription of unquestioned merit, which
may now be had in convenient tablet form.
It's value is due largely to an ingredient de-
rived from the humble May apple, or its root.
