A Natural

Remedy

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 Geras," and they also must be cast out. Once lodged in the stomach pr intestines, fever with its ballucinations, or biliousness with its aches and pains, is the result.

ENO'S

FRUIT SALT

is the approved remedy for driving outs disease germs. lis actido 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.

Be prepared for emergencies by always keeping bottle in the house.
