It is impossible to be well, simply impossible, if the
bowels are constipated. You must pay attention to the
laws of nature, or suffer the consequences. Undigested
material, waste products, poisonous substances, must be
removed from the body at least once each day, or there
will be trouble., A sluggish liver is responsible for an
immense amount of suffering.and serious disease. Ask
your doctor about Ayer’s Pills. 1~
