The Easy Pill.
DeWiut’s Little Early Risers do not
gripe nor weaken the system. They
cure biliousness, jaundice, constipation
and inactive livers by arousing the
secretione, moving the bowels gently
yet effectually, and giving such tone
and strength to the glands of the stom
ach, liver and bowels that the cause
of the trouble is removed entirely.
These famous little pills exert decided
tonic effects upon the organs involved,
and if their use is continued for a few
days there will be no return of the
trouble. DAawsON DRruG CO.

A sallow complexion, dizziness,
biliousness and a coated tongue
are common indications of liver
| and kidney diseases. Stomach and
bewel troubles, severe as they are,
izivfe immediate warning by pain,
but liver and kidney troubles,
though less painful at the start, are
much harder to cure. Thedford’s
Black-Draught never fails to bene
fit diseased liver and weakened kid
neys. It stirs up the torpid liver
to throw off the germs of fever and
ague. It is a certain preventive
of cholera and Bright's disease of
the kidneys. With kidneys re
inforced by Thedford's Black-
Draught thousands of persons have
dwelt immune in the midst of yel
low fever. Many families live in
rfect health and have no other
(Il)gctor than Thedford’s Black-
Draught. It is always on hand for
use in an emergency and saves
many expensive calls of a doetor.
Mullins, S. C., March 10, 1901.
I have used Thedford’s Black-Draught
for three years and | have not had to go
to a doctor since | have been taking it.
It is the best medicine for me that is
on the market for liver and Kidney
troubles and dyspepsia and other
complaints. Rev. A. 6. LEWIS. §
