The Cause of much Suffering.
[2854
When the Bowels are clogged the waste matter decays and ferments and enters the blood, and is carried to all parts of the body, producing Headaches, Biliousness, Sleeplessness, Heartburn, Loss of Appetite, Indigestion, Neuralgia, Rheumatism and various" other ailments disturbing the Heart and Nervous System, and if continued is liable to cause inflamation of the Bowels, Liver and Kidneys. Nature often requires a little assistance, and if this assistance is given at the first indication much distress and suffering may be averted. Mothers, especially, should guard the health of their children, and inculcate regular habits from infancy. As a family remedy for Costiveness, Dr. MORSE'S INDIAN ROOT PILLS have a wide reputation. They are mild in their action, causing neither weakness nor sickness and do not grips, and may be used by old and young, weak and strong.
They are a perfect blood purifier and a positive and permanent Cure for Biliousness, Indigestion, Constipation, Headaches, Sallow Complexion, Liver and Kidney Troubles, Piles, Pimples, Boils and Blotches, and for Female Ailments.
DR. MORSE'S
INDIAN ROOT PILLS are an efficient. reliable, and
remedy, placed on
the market at a price within the reach of all. The Pills being sugar-coated, are pleasant to take, and retain their full medicinal properties. They are packed in amber-coloured bottles-not in cheap wooden or pasteboard boxes and are thus always fresh and clean, impervious to moisture, unaffected by climatic con. ditions, and do not deteriorate by keep ing as all liquid 'medicines do.
