When You Feel “Blue”
Out of Sorts, Half-Sick and everything seems to
be going wrong, you need a dose or two of
HERBINE
It Is a Pure, Wholesome
System Cleanser and Regulator
The trouble is mainly in the liver, it is torpid. A
torpid liver allows impurities to accumulate in
the system which hamper every organ in the
body. The result is biliousness, low spirits, bad
digestion, a tired languid feeling, the head feels
dizzy, the appetite poor and the bowels irregular
—generally constipated. Herbine clears out all
bilious impurities, revives and strengthens the
torpid liver, tones the stomach and digestion and
restores regularity in the bowels. After the
system has been relieved of the impurities there
is an immediate improvement. Appetite returns,
the spirits rise, the mind clears of gloomy dis
couragement and everything looks bright and
cheerful. Try it.
