Long Used by Natives
OfSouthern California, Cascarine.

OF Southern California, Cascarine.
Made from the bark of plant that
grows In Southern California and on
the South Pacific coast. The bark
was held in such high esteem BY the
relatives that they named and de-
scribed il as Sacred Bark, and
was used by them in the cure of chronic
constipation, liver, stomach and
bowel troubles. Investigated in 1911
by the German botanist, Frederick
Pursh, introduced as medicine in
1877 by DIR. Bundy OF Calusa, Cal,
and was made the object OF special in
vestigation by Doctors Pearse and
Hanson in the United States; in
France by Doctors Landowski and
Duiardin- Beaumetz at the Cochin hos
pital: quoted by Virchow and Hirsch
in 1886 and the Persian medical jour
mails 1854.
Cascarine is a mild, tasteless and
pleasant laxative; does not stick to
the teeth, and will not interfere with
the most delicate stomach. Its action
is mild, invigorating, and does not
grippe. It cures the most obstinate
and stubborn cases. Ii You feel in
disposed, tired, languid, It your head
Is dizzy, il you have pain In your
back, rnmbling noise in the stomach
and abdomen, or feel bloated and
your food does not digest, or if you
are nervous, cant sleep at night, take
8Cascarine. Continue the treatment
for short time, repeat it more or
less occasionally as may be necessary,
and vo,1 will save doctor bills and
preserve your health. Cascarine is
guaranteed to do all that is claimed for
it. Go to the drug store and buy a.
bottle for SO cents, take it, and II you
are not satisfied with the results,
write to Rea Bros. 81 Co., manufac-
turing chemists, Minneapolis, Louis
vile or New York, and they will re-
fund your money.

rains fell this afternoon over large part

ties assert that to-day's rain. following
what little has fallen within the past forty
eight hours, will insure at least half a
crop of corn and make pasturage sure.
