Are you keeping clean inside with
Cascarets, or merely forcing pas

cathartic pills or easter oil? This is
important.
Cascarets work while you sleep,
cleanse and regulate the stomach, re-
move the sour, undigested and fer

excess bile from the liver and carry
out of the system all the decomposed
waste matter and poison in the intes-
