Such a statement, coming from the cashier of a bank, shows what confidence responsible people have in these pills. Mr. A. L. Wilson afte- trying them wrote: "I have used Dr. Miles' Nervs nnd Liver Pills and also your Anti-Pain Pills, on myself, with good results. The Liver Pills act so naturally and so easily tlßt I scarcely know that I have taken a pill. Frequently being troubled with headache I take an Anti-Pain Pill awl get immediate relief in every case." A. L. Wilson, Sparta, 111. Mr. Wilson was for a number of years cashier of the First National Bank of Sparta, Dr. Miles' Nerve and Liver Pills j are digercnt from others. Many j kinds of liver pills are "impossible" I after one trial on account of their | harshness. Dr. Miles' Nerve and Liver Pills do not act by sheer forc« but in an easy, natural way, with out griping or undue irritation. They are not habit forming. If the first bottle fails to benefit, your druggist wIH return the price. Ask him. MILES MEDICAL CO., Elkhart, Ind.
