lhe Joyous Business of Being Well

Constipation conquered, skin and
stomach disorders corrected-youth-
full energy renewed-by this fresh food
Nor "cure-all," " not a medicine in any
sense-Fleischmann Yeast is simply re-
markable fresh food
The millions of tiny active yeast plants in
every cake invigorate the whole system They
aid digestion-clear the skin-banish the
poisons of constipation. Where cathartics
give only temporary relief yeast strengthens
the intestinal muscles and makes them healthy
and active. And day by day it releases new
stores Of energy
Eat two or three cakes regularly every day
before meals: on crackers-in fruit juices
water or milk-or just plain, nibbled from the
cake. For constipation especially, dis
solve one cake in hot water (not scaldin9)
before breakfast and at bedtime. Buy
several cakes at time-they will keep fresh
