Here Is Good^News lor Stomach Victims Some very remarkable results are being obtained by treating stomach, liver and intestinal troubles with pur* vegetable' oils, which exert a cleansing, soothing and purifying action' upon the lower bowels, removing the obstructions of poisonous fecal matter and gases and preventing their absorption by the blood. This done, the food is allowed free pas* sage from the stomachy fermentation ceases and stomach troubles quickly dis appear. George H. Mayr, for twenty years a leading Chicago druggist, cured himself and many of his friends of stomach, liver and intestinal troubles of years standing by this r?arment, and so suc cessful was the remedy he devised that it has since been placed in the hands of druggists all over the country, who have aold thousands of bottles. Though absolutely harmless, the ef fect of the medicine is sufficient to con vince any one of its remarkable effect iveness, and within 24 hours the sufferer feels like a new person.
