POOR SLEEP DUE TO
GAS IN UPPER BOWEL

Poor sleep is caused by gas press
ing heart and other organs. You
can't get rid of this by just doctoring
the stomach because most of the gas
is in the UPPER bowel.
The simple German remedy, Ad-
lerika, reaches BOTH upper and
lower bowel, washing out poisons
which cause gas, nervousness, bad
sleep. Get Adlerika today; by to-
morrow you feel the wonderful eff
feet. You will say the day you read
this was sure a lucky day for you.
