RELIEF FOR TORPID LIVERS
And HABITUAL CONSTIPATION

The liver is the largest and most
important organ in the body, and
when the liver refuses to act, it
causes constipation, biliousness
headaches, Indigestion, gas. sour
stomach, bad breath. dvsenterv
diarrhoea, pains in back and under
shoulder blades and under ribs on
right side. These symptoms lead to
colds, influenza or other serions
troubles, unless corrected immedi-
ately.
An inactive liver places an extra
burden on the kidneys, which over
taxes them and causes the blood
to absorb and carry into the svs-
tenn the Impurities that the liver and
kidneys have failed to eliminate.
When you treat the liver alone,
you treat only third of your
trouble, and that is why you have
to take purgatives every few
nights. CaIomel or other ordinary
Iaxatives do not go far enough. If
you would treat your kidneys and
blood while treating the liver, you
would put your entire system in
order and frequent purgatives would
then be unnecessary.
DR., W. L. Hitchcock many years
ago recognized these important
facts, and after much study and
research compounded what is now
known as DR.. Hitchcock's Liver,
Kidney and Blood Powders, three
medicines combined in one. This
was the doctors favorite prescrip-
ton, for many years, being used by
his patients with marked success. It
is harmless vegetable remedy that
will not make you sick, and you may
eat anything you like while taking it.
Get large tin box from your
druggist or dealer for 25c under his
personal guarantee that it will give
relief, tone up the liver to healthy
action and thereby purify the blood.
keep it in the home for ready use
whenever any member of the family
begins to feel "out of sorts" 1t will
prove household friend and val
liable remedy. adv

Hair Deadened By
Using Poor Sharnpoos

You cannot exercise too much care
in selecting a shampoo. Poorly pre-
pared mixtures, shampoos, pastes and
containing an excess s. of
alkali deadens the hair, takes away
its life and lustre and in many in
stances causes it to turn white. Shu-
co Shampoo is a perfect saponifca-
ton of a blend of the highest refined
cocoanut and palm oils suspended in
a solution just right to give health,
vigor and lustre to the hair.
Two or three teaspoonfuls applied
to the wetted hair and rubbed brisk
ly will at once change into a spark
ing, creamy, bubbling bushel of la
ther which vanishes at once all dirt
and dust, rids the scalp of dandruff
and leaves the hair lustrous, soft,
wavy and brilliant. Your mirror will
