Flush the Sewers.

All the authorities on the cholera
'oncede that the only wayto effectual.
ly deal with it is to flush the sewers Of
our great cities and wash away the
impurities. What is true of a great
city is also true of the human system.
The avenues must be flushed at inter.
walls and the impurities washed away
in order to retain perfect health. This
can easily and safely be accomplished
by taking the Laxative Gum Drop.
These are a mild and pleasant laxa-
tive, gentle, agreeable in their taste
and certain in their action. They are
perfectly efficient but so free from
deleterious substance that if the chill
dren get them and eat them no harm
will ensue. They are put up like the
ordinary gum drop, which they re-
semble in appearance and taste. The
small boxes are 1oc, the large ones
