For they can’t do it. They only move the bowels and a mere movement doesn’t vet at the cause. The reason for your down-and-out feeling is your liver. It should pour out two pounds of liquid bile into your bowels daily. If this bile is not flowing freely, your food doesn’t digest. It just decays in the bowels. Gas bloats up your stomach. You have a thick, bad taste and your breath is foul, akin often breaks out in blemishes. Your bead aches and you feel down and ouL Your whole system is poisoned. It takes those good, eld CARTER’S LITTLE LTVtR PILIaS to get these two pounds of bile flowing freely and make you feH “up and up.” They contain wonderful, harmless, gentle vegetable extracts, amazing when it comes to making the bile flow freely. *• But don’t ask for liver pills.

Dunkleberg began, an immediate investigation upon being advised of the death. Allen revealed today portions of the testimony he took from. Virant at the inquest. In response to a question by the coroner as to whether Virant had. been threatened if he told of the’ heating, the prisoner said he hadj but "I am not afraid to talk.

His Independent autopsy will not 'be completed for several days. "I am certain," McNally said, "that death was not due to hanging. The body was found with the feet dragging 6n the'floor and examination of the nock show«>d no evidence of strangulation. It appears death was caused by a severe beating."
