BILIOUSNESS CONSTIPATION CURED BY THEDFORDS BLACK-DRAUGHT Because the liver is neglected people suffer with constipation, biliousness, headaches and fevers. Colds attack 1 the lungs and contagious diseases take hold of the system. It is safe to say that if the liver were always kept in proper working order, illness would oe almost unknown. Thedford's Black-Draught is so successful in curing such sickness because it is without a rival as a li ver regulator. This great family medicine is not a strong ana drastic drug, but a mild and healthful laxative that cures con­ stipation and may be taken by a mere child without possible harm. The healthful action on the liver cures biliousness. It has an in­ vigorating effect on the kidneys. Because the liver and kidneys do not work regularly, the poisonous acids along with the waste from the bowels get back into the blood and virulent contagion results. Tiinelv treatment with Thed­ ford's Black-Draught removes the dangers which lurk in constipation, liver and kidney troubles, and will positively forestall the inroads of Bright's disease, for which dis­ ease in advanced stages there is no cure. Ask your dealer for a 25c. package of Thedford's Black- Praught. - " Chicago & North-Western. Effective June I, 1901, WEEK DAY THflM.
