Three-fourths of our people are troubled with Dyspepsia and liver Complaint in some form or other, which by nature of the disease has a depressing influence on the mind or body, preventing them from thinking or acting clearly in any matter of im portance. Indigestion, coming up of food after eating, dyspepsia, sick head-ache, acidity of the "stomach or any derangement of tho stomach or liver (upon which tho whole action of our system depends) are speedily and effectually overcome by the use of Green's August Flower. The most stubborn cases have yielded to its in fluence, as thousands of letters re ceived will testify. Tho immense sale of this medicine is another guarantee of its merits, (over a million and a half bottles sold last year.) So wo ask, will it pay you to suffer from any of the above diseases when you can have immediate relief in the August Flower. Three doses will prove its worth. It is sold by all druggists and general dealers in nil parts of the world. SCRATCHED28 YEARS A Scaly, llchln? Skin Disease villi Endless Snfferlng Cnrcd by (Jnticnra Remedies.
