Probably is the Result of an In-
active Liver.
Too frequently >one forgets his
liver and then he must pay the
penalty in the form of headaches,
indigestion, coustipation and ether
symptons. When this happens
you must go back and help nature
eliminate the accumulated poisons,
cleanse the system of bile and the
results will quickly dissappear,
GRIOSBY’S LIV-VER-LAX is
rapidly displacing the use of calo-
mel in this section, not only be-
cause it does the work more effec-
tively than calomel, but because it
is easy to take and has no disagree-
able after effects.
Get a 50c or pi.00 bottle of this
wonder remedy from your druggist
today. It fs sold only under guar-
antee. Every bottle bears the like-
ness of L K Grigsby, who guaran-
tees it through J Meyenberg.—adv

ful drug. For sale by all dealers.
