They Injure Children.
Ordinary cathartics and Pills and
Harsh Physic Cause Distress
inq COMPLAINTS.

You cannot be over-careful in the
selection of medicine for. children.
Only the very gentlest bowel medi-
cine should ever be given. Ordinary
pills. cathartics and purgatives are
too apt to do more harm than good.
They cause gripping, nausea and other
distressing after-effects that are fire.
quently health destroying and life
lasting annoyance.
We personally recommend and
guarantee Rexall Orderlies as the
safest and most dependable remedy
for constipation and associate bowel
disorders. We have such absolute
faith in the supreme virtues of this
remedy that we sell it on our guar
antee of money back in every in
stance where it fails to give entire
satisfaction, and we urge all in need
of such medicine to try it at our risk.
Rexall Orderlies contain an entire
ly new ingredient which is odorless.
tasteless and colorless. 1t embraces
all the best qualities of the soothing
laxative, strengthening and healing
remedial active principles of the best
known intestinal regulator tonics.
Rexall Orderlies are extremely
pleasant to take, are particularly
prompt and agreeable in action, may
be taken at any time, day or night;
do not cause diarrhoea, nausea, grip
ing, excessive looseness, or other un-
desirable effects They have a very
natural action upon the glands and
organs with which they come in con,
tact, act as positive and regulative
tonic upon the relax, dry muscular
coat of the bowel, remove irritation
dryness and soreness overcome weak
ness, and tone and strengthen the
nerves and muscles, and restore the
| bowels and associate organs to more
| vigorous and healthy. activity
Rexall Orderlies not only cure con
stipation, but they remove the cause
of this ailment. They also overcome
l'the necessity of constantly taking
laxatives to keep the bowels in nor

so good as Rexall Orderlies, espec
