ANY physician will tell you that

it's safe plan to take no calomel

remedy.

We Back Up Our Statements With
Our Personal Reputation
and Money.

We are so positive that we can re-
lieve constipation, no matter how
chronic it may be, that we offer to
furnish the medicine free of all cost
if we fail.
We think that it is worse than use
less to attempt to cure constipation
with cathartie drugs. Cathartics may
do much harm. They may cause a
reaction, irritate and weaken the
bowels, and make constipation more
chronic.
Constipation is often accompanied
and may be caused by weakness
the nerves and muscles of the large
intestine or colon. To expect a cure
you must therefore tone up and also
strengthen those parts and restore
them to healthier activity.
The discovery of the active princi-
pie of our remedy involved the labor
of skilful research chemists, This
remedy produces results such as are
expected from the best of the best
known intestinal tonics, and it is par

We want you to try Rexall Order

ceedingly pleasant to take and are

THE DEALER KNOWS THAT
ADVERTISED ARTICLES
ARE MORE READILY SOTD,
and while his profit on them
may be smaller, the AGGRE-
GATE PROFIT IS GREATER
because he sells MORE or

The motion prevails in some
quarters that advertised articles
must be sold at higher prices in
order to make good the cost OF
the advertising.
There never was a more mis-

IRARY IS THE ACTUAL
TRUTH.
Dealers everywhere say that
the advertising of a GOOD ar

PAPERS, by the manufacturer
plus the advertising of the deal

mand for the article at once and
eeaDIes them to sell quantities
OF it at lower price than if #
