FOR THE BOWELS
Tonight! Clean your bowels and

You're biliousl You have a
throbbing sensation in your head,
a bad taste in your mouth, your
eyes burn, your skin is yellow,
with dark rings under your eyes;
your lips are parched. No wonder
you feel ugly, mean and ill-tem-
pered. Your system is full of bile
not properly passed off, and what
you need is a cleaning up inside.
Don't continue being a bilious
nuisance to yourself and those
who love you, and don't resort to
harsh physics that irritate and in
Jure. Remember that most dis
orders of the stomach, liver and
bowels are cured by morning with
gentle, thorough Cascarets--they
work while you sleep. A 10-cent
box from yDur druggist will keep
your liver and bowels clean !;
stomach sweet, and your head
clear for months. Children love
to take Cascarets. because they
taste good and never grippe or
sicken.
