Do you get up with a "born- tired" feeling mornings? bud taste in your mouth? dull headache? wabbling stomach? Unpleasant but familiar, is'nt it ?

It is proof that you need Abbey's Salt, the stomach regulator, and need it badly.

A dose of Abbey's Salt be- fore breakfast will quickly drive these ill feelings away and set you right within an hour.
