There are none fairer or sweeter the

world. Yet her
very energy and
ambition are of
ten times her im
doing. She at
tempts too much.
Her health is un
dermined. Anil
when health goes
bcatitv goes also.
The use of Dr.

ery re-establishes
the health. It
cures diseases of
the stomach and
organs of diges
tion and nutri

perfect assimila

the proper nour
