PROMOTER'S FIRM STATEMENT
Board Plan Is Unjust And Unworkable

AN EPIDEMIC OF LIVER DISORDER
By Dr. Quignon of the Faculty of Medielnie. Paris
Just now I am kept very busy by an epidemic of "liver"" disorders-a great many people feeling "out-of sorts," billous, depressed and unable to enjoy their food. Undoubledly the best remedy for an upset liver provided by certain famous Con- tinental Mbieral Springs, but sciento has now made it possible for all liven sufferers to enjoy, in their homes all the benefits of Continental Spa treatment, at little cost. By re producing in crystalline form the essential principles of seven world renowned Spas, including those at Vichy, Carlsbad, Aix-les-Baina and Marienbad, 'Alitin Saltrates' provides what is probably the finest liver tonle and corrective known. It is obtain-
