4 Liver t
Hj "I have had trouble with 9
jm | an inactive liver,** wrote Mrs. a
S. Nichols, of 4412 Spencer
g| St., Houston, Texas. "When £
<§ 1 would get constipated, I would b
<§g feel a light, dizzy feeling in my
€ head. To get up in the morning I
€1 with a lightness in the head and 9
* a trembly feeling is often a sign
® that the stomach is out of order. H*
jH For this 1 took Thedford’s
” Black-Draught, and without a *
gg doubt can say I have never
4 found its equal in any liver %
medicine. It not only cleans
€ the liver, but leaves you in such W
a good condition. I have used &
Ji it a long time, when food does J*
not seem to set well, or the Hr
stomach is a little sour.’*
