 DIGESTIVE TRACT

And Stop Dosing Your Stomach With Soda and Alkalizers Don't expect to get real relief from headache, sour stomach, gas and bad breath by taking soda and other alka~ lizers if the true cause of your troubleis constipation.
 In this case, your real trouble is otin the stomach at all. But in the intestinal tract where S0% ofyourfoodi digested. And when it gets blocked 1t fails to digest properly.
 What you want for real relief is not soda or an alkalizer-but something to s'unblock" your intestinal tract. Some thing to clean it out effectively-help Nature get back on her feet.
 Get Carter's Pills right now. Take them as directed. They gently and effec- lively "unblock" your digestive tract. This permits your food to move along normally. Natures own digestive juices can thenre it. You get genuine relief that makes you feel TeGlly good again.
 Get Carter's Pills at any drugstore- 25f. "Unblock' your intestinal tract for real relief from indigestion.
