Do you have poor digestion!
Do you feel headachy after eating?
Do you get sour or upset easily?
Do you feel tired-listIess?

Do you feel headachy and upset due to
poorly digested food? To feel cheerful
and happy again your food must be
digested properly.
Each day. Nature must produce about
two pints of vital digestive juice to
help digest your food. II Nature fails.
your food may remain undigested--
leaving you headachy and irritable.
Therefore, you must increase the flow
of this digestive juice. Carter's Little
Liver Pills increase this flow quickly -
often in as little as 80 minutes. And.
you're on the road to feeling better.
Don't depend on artificial aids to
counteract Indigestion Carters
Little Liver Pills aid digestion after Ma
lures own order. Take Carter's Little
Liver Pills as directed. Get them at any
