Cult Poisoning Yourself Today.
Notice Quick Difference in the
way You Look, Eat, Sleep
and Feel

The great agitation over SELF
POISONING is sweeping the coun-
try. The menace is great! 1t is one
that should cause every man, wo-
man and child to pause and con-
slider ones own condition.
Self. poisoning, as it is called, is
the direct result of allowing the
Liver, the body's filter, to become
sluggish and clogged. This is why
many wake up feeling dull and tired
tongue coated-bad taste III
mouth and offensive breath.
Why You Feel Bad
This explains why so many suffer
from just such symptoms as poor
digestion, sour stomach and forma-
ton of gases, improper movement
of the bowels, pimples, sallow com
plexion, sick headaches and n ner-
vous, upset and Oyertaxed condition
Of the system-whv one catches cold
SO easily while in this rundown
condition and why the system is not
healthy enough TO throw off various
diseases as Nature intended.
Due to Neglect
But there is no need for alarm
This Self-poisoning menace is not
contagious-but due entirely to
ones own neglect. And, just as
science has traced these symptoms
directly to poisoned liver and sys-
TEN, SO medical authorities have
perfected remedy that overcomes
the cause of poisoning and
