HOW WOMEN CAN WIN MEN

The Favor of Other Men _
Unless two pints of bile juice
flow daily from your liver into
your bowels, your food decays in
your bowels. This poisons your
whole body. Movements get hard
and constipated. You get yellow
tongue, yellow skin, pimples, dull
eyes, bad breath, bad taste, gas,
dizziness, headache. You have be
come an ugly-looking, foul-smell
ing, sour-thinking person. You
have lost your personal charm.
Everybody wants to run from you.
But don't take salts, mineral
waters, oils, laxative pills, laxa
tive candies or chewing gums and
expect them to get rid of this poison that
destroys your personal charm. They can't
do It, for they only move out the tail end
of your bowels and that doesn’t take
away enough of the decayed poison. Cos
metics won't help at all.
Only a free flow of your bile Juice will
stop this decay poison In your bowels. The
one mild vegetable medicine which starts
a free flow of your bile Juice Is Carter’s
Little Liver Pills. No calomel (mercury)
In Carter’s. Only fine, mild vegetable
extracts. If you would bring back your
personal charm to win men. start taking
Carter’s Little Liver Pills according to
directions today. ZEd at drug stores.
Refuse “something Just as good", for It
may gripe, loosen teeth or scald rectum. Ask
for Carter's Little Liver Pills by name
and get what yoa ask for. QlMZ.O.M.Oas,
