r 'it- "r -wn.Mi DECEMBER 30, 1904 What Sulphur Does The Commoner. 13 rlnes and carbines now In its possea- 81011, in Health and For the Human Body Disease The mention of sulphur will recall to many of us the early days when our mothers and grandmothers gave us our daily dose of sulphur and mo lasses every spring and fall. It was the universal spring and fall blood purifier," tonic and cure-all, and mind you, this old-fashioned remedy was not without merit. The idea was good, but the remedy was crude and unpalatable,, and a largo quantity had to bo taken to get any effect. Nowadays we get all the beneficial eflocts of sulphur in a palatable, con centrated form, so that a single grain is far more effective than a tablespoon ful of the crude sulphur. In recent years, research and experi ment have proven that the best sul phur for medicinal use is that obtained from Calcium (Calcium Sulphide) nd sold in drug stores under the name of Stuart's Calcium Wafers. They are small chocolate coat-d pellets and con tain the active medicinal principle of sulphur in a highly concentrated, ef fective form. Few people are aware of the value of this form of sulphur in restoring and maintaining bodily vigor and health; sulphur acts directly on the liver, and excretory organs and puri fies and enriches the blood by the prompt elimination of waste material. Our grandmothers knew this when they dosed us with sulphur and mo lasses every spring and fall, but the crudity and impurity of ordinary flow ers of sulphur were often worse than t. disease, and can not compare with th" modern concentrated preparations of sulphur, of which Stuart's Calcium Wafers is mdoubtedly the best and most widely used. They are the natural antidote for liver and kidney troubles and cure con stipation and purify the blood in a way that often surprises patient and phvsiclan alike. Dr. R. M. Wilkins while experiment ing with sulphur remedies soon found that the sulphur from Calcium wa3 simerior to .any other form. He says: "or liver, kidney and blood troubles, especially when resulting from con stipation or malaria, I have been sur prised at the results obtained from Stuart's Calcium Wafers. In patient3 suffering from boils and pimples and even deep-seated carbuncles. I have re peatedly seen them dry up and disap pear in four or five days, leaving the skin clear and smooth. Although Stu art's Calcium Wafers is a proprietary article, and sold by druggists, and for that reason tabooed oy many phy sicians, vet I know of nothing so safe and reliable for constitpation, liver and kidney troubles and especially in all forms of skin disease as this rem edv." U any rate people who are tired of pills, cathartics and so-called blood "nurifiers," will find in Stuart's Cal cium Wafers, a far safer, more palat able and effective preparation.
