The best ot workers get out ot sorts when the liver tails to act. They feel languid, hatf-sick, "blue" and diseonraged and think they are getting lazy. Neglect ot these symp¬ tons might result in a sick spell, therefore the sensible course is to take a dose or two of Herbine. It is just the medicine needed to purity the system and restore the vim and ambition ot health. Price 60c. Sold by J. H. Throgmorton. fl->
