Our boys are defending this country
on the high seas and on the land. Our
own defense against a common enemy
Is to keep the system clean by Kidding
the body Of the toxins. or poisons, which
are bred In the intestines. When you
feel tired, sleepy, headachy, when your
breath is offensive. or pimples appear
on the face and neck, it is time to recog-
nize the danger and protect your bodily
health by taking something for the liver
such as DIR. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets.
The machinery Of the body needs to
be oiled, kept In good condition. just as
the guns or machinery Of a ship. Why
should a human person neglect his own
machinery more than that of his auto
mobile or his guns? Yet most people
do neglect themselves. Their tongue
has a dark brown color, skin sallow,
breath bad, yet they fail to see that
their machinery needs attention.
DIR. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets have
been known for nearly half q century.
They are made of May-apple, leaves of
aloe and Jalap. made Into a tiny pellet
and coated with sugar. They are stand
ard and eficacious. You can obtain
them at any drug store in Walls fcr
twenty-five cents. Ask for DR.. Pierce's
Pleasant Pellets-and get no other!
