only 18 produced enough wheat for
the requirement of their people in
1317. Of th- North AIDnlh Foa-

two (Dole/.art and Mar) hind) ran

Keep Well
Do not al’*w the
poisons of undigested
food to accumulate in
your bowels, where they
are absorbed into your
system. Indigestion, con-
stipation, headache, bad
blood, and numerous
other troubles are bound
to follow. Keep your
system clean, as thous-
ands of others do, by
taking an occasional dose
ot the old, rv..ab!e, veg-
etable family liver medi-
cine.

"We have used Thed-
