He Was Constipated, Bilious and Weak Just Dragged Himself Around for Years. Perfectly Well Now. “I suffered with stomach trouble and a torpid liver for ten years. My appetite was poor and I was troubled with frequent attacks of biliousness. My complexion was yellow, I was troubled with constipation and all run down. I just had no pep at all. I tried different medicines and nothing did me any good. Several friends recommended Viuna to me, so I tried it. After a couple of days I saw that at last I had found the medicine that I had been looking for. My appetite came back and the things I ate began to taste good to me. The bilious attacks stopped and my complexion began to clear up, so I kept right on, and now I feel fine. I can eat anything, my constipation is gone, and for a man 63 years old, I am full of pep.”— William Beal, 117 N. High St., Hartford City, Ind.
