DANGEROUS USE OF STRONG pURGATIVES.

Most pills, purgatives and Bitter Waters, which
act quickly upon the bowels, initiate and often
destroy the mucous coats Of the stomach
and bowels Indeed their cathartic action Is
directly caused by the irritation OF the bowels
which they produce. Their action should be
soothing and stimulating instead OF irritating
obronic inf suraat,on ~ he stomsch and hove1s
This often ends in dangerous disease. The use of
the genuine imported Carlsbad Sprudel Salt is
highly recommended as as 40 aperient laxative,
and diuretic, because its action is due solely to
It's solvent and stimulating properties. It sOothes
and allays Inflammation, and is therefore much
preferable 10 all strong purgatiyes and Bitter
