"I have Just come here from Van
eouver, BIC. and have been taking
''Fruita-tives'' for two years, and
have never found any medicine that
answered my requirementslikey yours.
Nine years ago, I was in an accident
and the lower portion of my bowels
are Paralyzed; therefore, 1 need a
medicine that does not lose its effect,
and I have been absolutely satisfied
with "Fruit-a-tives" since I began
taking them"
Mrs. c. G. REMINGTON,
Now, you might think that any
medicine which Is strong enough to
move the bowels when they are para
lyzed, would be too powerful to be
used BY a person suffering with
ordinary Constipation. Yet "Fruit-a-
hves" is regularly taken by children,
young boyssnd girls, men and women
Of al ages, without pain, gripping or
other il-efects. Because "Fruit-a-
lives" is q genuine fruit medicine,
that always corrects Constipation
and Biliousuess gently, mildly and
effectively.
