It's hard to minister to a MIND diseased, but an easy matter to minister to a diseased BODY; to supply the remedial needs of ''the inner man"-and the inner WOMAN.
 Most everybody is, more or less, constipated and frequently bilious. Neglect of these conditions is dan- gerous-foolish and useless. The inner works" of the human body are so complicated that they easily get out of order; and when. anything's the matter with any of THEM, there's going to be trouble with the whole physical machinery of life
 DR. TEACHERS LIVER AND BLOOD SYRUP is standard remedy for the internal ills that bring about the ailments common to men. women and children It is gently but effectively LAXATIVE, or vigorously and thoroughly CA THARTIC. according to the dose prescribed.
 It purifies and tones up the BLOOD, making 1t run red, rich and riotous in heating giving current through the system.
 It helps to induce natural action of the KIDNEYS-the drainage system of the body which must be kept open and clean to perform it's proper function.
 DR TEACHERS LIVER AND BLOOD SYRUP is the prescription of an old family doctor, used with his thousands of patients in a life time practice. It is a purely VEG ETABLE preparation compounded in the laboratories of the TEACH FER MEDICINE CO. Chattanooga. Tenn. sole proprietors. It is sold by druggists everywhere. For sale by JNO. D. MARTIN
