A Natural
Remedy
Time was when disease was thougur 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 Gerins," and they also must be cast out. Once lodged in the stomach or intestines, fever with it hallucinations, or biliousness with its aches and tins, is the result.
ENO'S
FRUIT SALT
is the approved remedy for driving out, disease permis. Its action is quick and thorough. It 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 Diarrhea by removing the irritating cause.
