other for bones. A correct diet will not
only nourish particular part of the
body, but it will sustain every otner
part. Yet, however good your food may
be. it nuinmeni is aeeiroyea ov inur

pare for their appearance or prevent
their coming by taking regular doses of
Green's August Flower, the favorite
