Keep Weil
Do not allow the
poisons of undigested
food to accumulate in
your bowels, where they
are absorbed into your
system. Indigestion, con
stipation, headache, bad
blood, and numerous
ether troubles are bound
to follow. Keep your
system clean, as thous
ands of others do, by
taking an occasional dose
of the old, reliable, veg
etable, family liver medi
cine.

Black-Draught
Mrs. W. F. Pickle, of
Rising Fawn, Ga., writes:
“We have used Thed
ford’s Black-Draught as
a family medicine. My
mother-in-law could not
take calomel as it seemed
too strong for her, so she
used Black-Draught as a
mild laxative and liver
regulator... We use it
in the family and believe
it is the best medicine for
the liver made.” Try it.
Insist on the genuine—
