Its beneficial affects are due to the fact, that it is the que remedy which promotes internal cleanliness without debilitating the organs on which it acts. It is therefore all important, in order to get its bene- ficial effects, to note when you purs chase, that you have the genuine arti cle, which is manufactured by the Galley FT.
