He Is Looking EN- Over
Again

Eight years of stomach and liver
trouble reduced me to walking
skeleton. My skin was dried up and
as yellow as a twenty-dollar gold
piece. I was filled with gas and had
severe pains in my right side I could
not think and had lost all ambition
to do anything. Doctors medicine did
not touch me. My cousin advised
Mayr's Wonderful Remedy, which
snatched me from the grave. l have
gained sixty pounds, eat like a hired
man and am looking EN- over again.
1t is a simple, harmless preparation
that removes the. catarrhal mucous
from the intestinal tract and allays the
inflammation which causes practically
all stomach, liver and intestinal all
ments including appendicitis. One
dose will convince or money refunded.
