Time was when disease was thought to be due to the direct influence of evil spirits, and exorcism and magic were invoked to cast it out.
Science has taught us wisdom. The evil spirits exist still, We call them "Disease Germs" and they also must be cast out. Once lodged in the stomach or intestines, fever with it hallucinations, or biliausness with its aches and pains, is the result.
ENO'S
