fascinating story.
THE Purple Lily" has been secured

A Bilious Attack

When you have a bilious attack
your liver fails to perform its func-
tions. You become constipated. The
food you eat ferments in your stom-
ach instead of digesting. This in
flames the stomach and causes nausea,
vomiting and a terrible headache.
Take three of Chamberlain's Tablets.
They will tone up your liver, clean
out your stomach and you will soon
be as well as ever. They only cost
quarter.
