Just for a few days, take ENO's "Fruit Salt" regularly each morning and night. Then note how much better you begin to feel and look...more energetic, eyes brighter, complexion clearer.

The reason is simple. Nine out of ten people aro constipated, although few suspect it ENO relieves and prevents this condition by ridding the system, punctually and thoroughly of all- poisonous wastes. Millions have proved this and depend entirely on this pleasant alkaline corrective for maintaining their health... Buy a bottle today- but make sure you get ENO.
