KRUSCHEN SALTS.

The Kruschen habit counteracts the ill-effects of a busy life that cannot be avoided. Every morning you just drop into your first cup of tea enough Kruschen Salte to cover a 10 cent piece. It is tasteless taken; that way, but it stimulates the liver and kidneys to natural activity, invigorates the entire system, sends clear healthy blood streaming to every part of the body.

To be obtained at all Chemists.
