IT IS DIFFERENT l —quite different—pfter taking a few doses of Beecham's Pills. The low-spirited condition caused by derangement of the (ligeslive organs gives place to a welcome sensation of bright- ness and better tone the depression which accompanies many forms of dyspcptic trouble is banished, and a feeling of cheerfulness comes in its stead. In fact, people who take Beecham's Pills generally find their spirits improved and their interest in life stimulated AFTER USING this remarkably efficacious medicine Beecham's Pills make all the difference! The reason of this pleasant change is perfectly clear. Beecham's Pills have been specially prepared to act npon the important organs which govern the function of digestion, and which, when out of order, are the cause of so much discomfort and so many ailments That Beecham's Pills do what they were designed to do, and do it admirably, is abundantly prov: d by their enormous sale and changeless popularity. It is we 1 to remember, there- fore, that dyspeptic depression disappears, and the outlook grows brighter after taking Beecham's Pills Sold everywhere in boxes, labelled Is 3d and 3s Od. J
