How to Look Good.
Good looks are really more than
skin deep, depending entirely on a
healthy condition of all tbe vital or
gans. If the liver is inactive, you
have a bilious look ; if your stomach
is disordered, you have a dyspeptic
look; if your kidneys are affected, you
have a pinebed look. Secure good
health, and you will surely have good
looks. “Electric Bitters” is a good
Alterative and Tonic. Acts directly
on tbe stomach, liver and kidneys,
purifies the blood, cures pimples,
blotches and boils, and gives a good
complexion. Every bottle guaranteed.
Sold at J. N. Harris <£ Son and Car
