Cathartic Pills

were designed to supply a
model purgative to people who
had so long injured themselves
with gripping medicines. Being
carefully prepared and their in
gradients adjusted to the exact
necessities of the bowels and
liver, their popularity was in
stantaneous. That this popu-
larlty has been maintained is
Well marked in the medal
awarded these pills at the
Worlds Fair 1893.

Both were busy for human veal
One to govern and one to heal.
