HEW LAXATIVE
TASTES LIKE
LITHIA '
Dissolves Qalckly In -Csld
Water
The day of bad-tasting, harsh-acting
laxatives seems to be past.
Generations have dosed themselves,
year in and year out, with nauseating
hot water cathartics, griping pills, etc.,
and now medical science has come to
the rescue.
For many years physicians have pre
scribed three well known salts in the
treatment of constipation, knowing
from long experience how quickly they
helped rheumatism, headache, back
ache, disordered stomach, and the
many other ailments caused by irregu
lar habits. j
These salts naye long, hard medical
names and, until lately, it was difficult
to get them in the right proportion
without a prescription.
To place them within the reach of
everybody, to give all who suffer a
chance to benefit, they have been
placed in drug stores all over the coun
try under the name of Sallnos (laxa
tive salts). This la easy to say and
easy to remember, Sally-Nos.
Unlike the salts you have always
hated to take, Sallnos actually tastes
good, dissolves readily, even in cold
water and gives to it a pleasing flavor.
Hot water, which so many people can
not take, isn't needed at all. Cold
water does Just as well and every par
ticle of the salts Is dissolved without
leaving any sediment. .
Gratifying results may be noticed
from the first glass yon take. A few
days' use invariably shows a greatly
improved condition. The blood is
purer, digestion is better and the gen
eral tone of the body rapidly becomes
normal. Try this simple, safe prepara- i
tlon today and stop suffering. jj
