FOUL BREATH.
WOMEN'S GREATEST MISFORTUNE.
The old saying that "distance lends enchantment" was never more aptly to the point than when applied to those people whose breath is laden with evil smelling odours. Many persons appear most attractive at a distance, but produce a feeling of pity and disgust when close to because of the condition of their breath. For instance, it makes little difference how beautiful a woman may be, or how charming her manner it her breath is foul, her charm is gone and she is at a dis- advantage when ever" she comes in contact with other people. Fou! breath in women arouses in man a feeling of repugnance and a desire to get out of the company of such a woman as quickly as possible, and even women will avoid her. It is therefore important for every woman who values her personal attraction to take such care of herself that this unpleasant and unnecessary complaint is avoided or corrected. Men, women and children who are troubled with this complaint will drive -their friends away more rapidly than any other affliction. People do not realise their breaths are bad because they are like those who are constantly employed among painta and varnishes--they get used to what is to others a most offensive smell. In nearly all cases this condition is Lady Claimedes end a dicarilered Stomach, and a coated Tongue, sight fia...a hoy and feverlands are the sure signs that the digestive organs are retaining quantities of impurities from which the system should be free, thereby causing the Breath to become charged with the foul odour." In Dr. Morses' Indian Root Pills there will be found i searsidng, cleansing remedy which will drive the masses of decaying corruption--that poison, the Blood and contaminate the breath-from the system through the regular channels. They get at the cause as no other remedy does. They get at the the foundation of the complaint. They give you clean towels, a healthy stomach, a lively liver, and blood that is rich and red. They are safe, sure and reliable remedy, and will prevent many of the complaints so common if taken once or twice a week to keep the system in a healthy condition. They are purely vegetable, and their action is not accompanied by any nauscous or griping sensation, but is mild and gentle.
