MILLS, Secretary, THE A very important and often neglected organ. Many of ns forget we have a liver. 'We go on day after day eating nil kinds and classes of foods and forget that the liver needs a little cleansing occasionally. We unconsciously expect all our organs to work day and night, year in and year out, and not to become tired and complaining. “ Even a worm will turn.” If you really want to be well and keep well, just remember that your sickheadaches, your biliousness, your constipation ; flatulency ; sleeplessness ; those hot flushes; bloating after eating; rumbling of the bowels ; boils and pimples; specks before the eyes, and a score of other symptoms all indicate a tired, over-worked liver. Be reasonable. Give your liver a chance to be well and the complaints will all go as by magic. Take from one half to one teaspoonful of Blm flag LSvsr Care after each meal for a few cWs. This remarkablelivercleansingandstrengtheningremedy is doing a wonderful work right throughout the Dominion. It is bringing sunshine and happiness to many homes where desponding and “ the blues ” were formerly frequent visitors. We urge you to try “ Blue Flag Liver Cure ” to-day, and to begin to learn what good, robust, sparkling health really means, 'Sold in bottles 2/6 and 4/6 each, by chemists and stores, or post free direct from the Blue Flag Medicine Co., Cuba St., Wellington. 2 JJONGOTEA COACH FACTORY.
