Bilious Attacks
Liver Complaint
Biliousness is just anofher name
for a clogged or sluggish liver. It.
is a very common complaint, but can
be quickly remedied by stimulating
the flow of bile. This softens the
accumulated mass, the poisons are
carried out of the system, and the
liver and bowels are relieved and
toned up.
Milbum’s Laxa-Liver Pills quicken
and enliven the sluggish liver, open
ing up every channel, by causing a
free flow of bile and thus cleansing
the liver of the clogging impurities.
They are small and easy to take.
Do not gripe, weaken or sicken.
