is the approved remedy for driving out disease
Its action is quick and thorough. clears the intestines, rouses the torpid liver to new life, stimulates the mucous membrane to a healthy action, and "cleanses and invigorates the whole digestive tract.
It may be safely taken at any time by young or old.
It is very effective in the early stage of Diarriicea by removing the irritating cause."
