compounded FRI m concentrated principles, ex-

They are not only pleasant to take, but thev
operation is easy, unattended " 18th any gripping
pain. They operate without producing any
constitutional disturbance. Unlike other ca
thartics, they do not render the bowels costive

tablish permanently healthy action. Being
entirely vegetable, no particular care is required
while using them.
