For derangements of the di gestive organs it is a natural corrective, operating directly upon the liver and ali mentary canal,- gently but persistently stimulating a healthful activity. Its beneficial influence extends, however, to every portion of the system, aiding in the processes of digestion and assimilation of food, promoting a wholesome, natural appetitef correcting sour stomach, bad breath, irregularities of the bowels, con stipation and the long list of troubles directly traceable to those unwholesome conditions. Kasparilla dispels drowsi- . ness, headache, backache and despond ency due to inactivity of the liver, " kidneys and digestive tract. It is a strengthening tonic of the highest value. If it fails to satisfy we authorize all dealers to refund the "purchase price. Hoyt Chemicai, Co. Portland, Oregon C.
