Do You Continually Feel Slug
gish, Disinterested ?
If you do. it is probably caused by
your liver. When the liver fails to per
form its functions properly, the sys
tem becomes dogged with poisonous
matter thHt weighs you down mentally
and physically.
The liver gets out of order very easi
ly. and if neglected, chronic trouole
usually results. Don’t delay if you feel
badly. You knowingly lay yourself
open to life-long pe.in. when you allow
yourself to continue in a run-down con
dition. Cure yourself quickly and harm
lessly with the natural vegetable rem-
,edy. Liv-Ver-LaX. It has all the <t-
fictirtnese, but nut the effect, of calo

Are You Rheumatic—Try Sloan's.
If you want quick and real relief from
rheumatism do what so many thousand
oilier people are doing —whenever an
attack comes on. bathe the sore muscle
or joint with Sloan’s Liniment. No
need to rub it in- just apply the lini
ment to the surface. It is wonderfully
penetrating. It goes right to the seat
of trouble and draws the pain almost
immediately. Gel a bottle of Sloan’s
Liniment for 2oc. of any druggist and
have it in the house—against colds, sore
and swollen joints, lumbago, sciatica
and like ailments. Aour money back if
not satisfied, hut it does give almost j
instant relief.
“A Good Appetite
Is Your Best Asset"
People who are blessed with
good appetites are rarely sick.
Those who are thus blessed have
a greater capital than any dys
peptic money king whose hoarded
gold scores six figures. The great
est of all wealth is HEALTH.
The greatest guard against dis
ease is a well-filled stomach. Sub
stantial, wholesome food, espe
cially MEAT, enriches the blood,
nourishes the nerves, and defies
the attacks of disease. Econo
mize in every direction but the
“food route.” Every dollar you
knock off of your MEAT bill
multiplies an expense in patching
up your energy. Drugs and doc
tor’s bills and loss of time are a
poor equivalent for saving a dol
lar at the expense of health. This
statement is not overdrawn. Your
own physician is an advocate of
wholesome bodily nourishment.
Ask him.
Juicy steaks, wholesome roasts
and appetizing chops should be a
daily indulgence for yourself and
family.
The splendid quality of our
MEATS, and the sanitary envi
ronments in which they are kept
and sold, leaves nothing to be de
sired for variety, purity, and
healthfulness.
