WAKE UP YOUR LIVER BILE--Without Calomel And You'll Jump of Bed in the Morning Full of Vim. The liver should pour out two pounds ot liquid bile into your bowels daily. If this bile is not flowing freely, your food doesn’t digest. It just decays in the bowels. Wind bloats up your stomach. You get constipated. Your whole system is poisoned and you feel sour, tired and weary and the world looks blue. Laxatives are only makeshifts. A mere bowel movement doesn’t get at the cause. It takes those good old Carter’s Little Liver Pills to get those two 'pounds’ of bile flowing freely and make yoii feel “up and up.’’ Harmless, gentle, yet amazing in making bile flow freely. Ask for CARTER’S Little Liver Pills by name. Stubbornly refuse anything else. Distributors: Fassett 6 Johnson Ltd., Levy Buildings, Manners Street, Wellington, C.S.
