may often be avoided. This Is par
ticularly true Of headache. The most
common cause Of headache is a dis
ordered stomach or constipation,
which may be corrected by taking q
few doses Of Chamberlain's Tablets.
Try 1t. Many others have obtained
permanent relief by taking these
Tablets. They are easy to take and

Do You Enjoy Life?

A man in good physical condition

always unnecessary. A few doses of
Chamberlain's Tablets to tone up the
stomach, improve the digestion and
regulate the bowels Is all that is
needed Try It.

government grade it will raise the
price. If lower, the producer may
ship his grain to the federal grain
