It purifies the blood, removes languor
and depression, invigorates and exhila
rates the whole system.
IN THE sum me R
It overcomes the relaxation and debility
caused by hot weather and corrects
bowel troubles that are so prevalent
then. Besides, it makes the most de
lightful and refreshing drink.

Catarrh, Rheumatism, and the ills that
belong to cold seasons.
