Wake UP YOUR

WITHOUT CALOMEL
And You'll Jump Out Of Bed IN

II you feel sour and sunk and the world
looks punk, don't swallow a lot of salts,
mineral water, oil, laxative candy or chewing
gum and expect them to make you suddenly
sweet and buoyant and full Of sunshine.
For they can't do It. They only move the
bowels and mere movement doesn't get at
the cause The reason for your dovn-and-out
feeling is your liver. It should pour out two
pounds Of liquid bile into your bowels daily.
If this bile Is not flowing freely, your food
doesn't digest. 1t just decays in the boweis
Gas bioats up your stomach. You have q
thick, bad taste and your breath is foul,
skin often breaks out in blemishes- Your head
aches and you feel down and out. Your whole
system is poisoned.
It takes those good, old CARTER'S
LITTLE LIVER PILLS to get these two
pounds OF bile flowing freely and make you
feel 'tup and up" They contain wonderful,
harmless, gentle vegetable extracts, amazing
when it comes to making the bile flow freely.
