KILLED IN MIMIC SHOW.
Because the liver is
neglected people suffer
■with constipation, biliousness,
headaches and fevers. Colds attack
the lungs and contagious diseases
take hold of the system. It is safe Gj
to say that if the liver were always B
kept in proper working order, B
illness would be almost unknown. F
Thedford’s Black-Draught is so 33
successful in curing such sickness
because it is without a rival as a
liver regulator. This great family
medicine is not a strong and
drastic drug, but a mild and
healthful laxative that cures con
stipation and may be taken by a
mere child without possible
harm.
The healthful action on the liver
cures biliousness. It has an in
vigorating effect on tho kidneys.
Because the liver and kidneys do P*
not work regularly, the poisonous
acids along with the waste from
the bowels get back into the blood
and virulent contagion results.
Timely treatment with Thed
ford’s Black-Draught removes the
dangers which lurk in constipation,
liver and kidney troubles, and will
positively forestall the inroads of
Bright’s disease, for which dis
ease in advanced stages there is
no cure. Ask your dealer for a
25c. package of Thedford’s Black-
Draught.

Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy

“I have been using Chamberlain’s

question about its being the best, as
it will cure a cough or cold in less
time than any other treatment. It
should always be kept in the house

be cured in much less time when
promptly treated. For sale by Che
