CONFIDENCE
We Back up Statements with Our
Personal Reputation and Money

We are so positive that we can
relieve constipation, no matter how
chronic 1t may be, that we offer to
furnish the medicine free of all cost
il we fail.
We think that it is worse than
useless to attempt to cure constipa-
tion with cathartic drugs. Cathar.
ties may do much harm. They may
cause a reaction, irritate and weak
en- the bowels, and make constlpa-
tion more chronic,
Constipation is often accompanied
and may be caused by weakness of
the nerves and muscles of the large
intestine or colon. To expect a cure
you must therefore tone up aud
strengthen those parts and restore
them to healthier activity.
The discovery of the active prin.
ciple of our remedy involved the
labor Of skillful research chemists.
This remedy produces results such
as are expected from the best of the
best-known Intestinal tonics, and it
is particularly prompt in its results.
We want you to try RexalI Order
lies on our guarantee. They are
exceedingly pleasant to take
aud are ideal for children. They
apparently act directly on the nerves
and muscles of the bowels, having,
it would seem, a neutral action on
other organs or glands. They do
not purge or cause inconvenience.
If they do not positively cure chron.
ic or habitual constipation and thus
relieve the myriads OF associate or
dependent chronic ailments, your
money viii be refunded. Try Rex
all Orderlies at our risk. Three
sizes of packages, lOc csc and

toms Of Worms in their children. These

A child with Worms is pa, sickly and
cross, has dark rings unuer the eyes, bad
breath fickle appetite, picks the nose
continually, starts in the sleep. grinds
the teeth while sleeping. The worst part
about this disorder is that children at

Typhoid Fever, Diphtheria, Measles and
other diseases fatal to child life. A rem
edy for Worms; one that is absolutely
sure Of results is Whites Cream Verini-
fuge. It destroys and removes worms
