Recognized as one of the standard remedies, physicians daily prescribe it, many preferring it to all others, and especially calomel. They like it because, being purely vegetable, it’s not nearly as harsh as calomel; it never gripes; is never followed by any of the dangerous after-effects that so often result from the use of calomel. This standard remedy, readyprepared, may now be had under the name of Sentanel Laxative Tablets. Be sure you get the original Sentanel Laxatives, put up in the box that has the picture of the soldier on it. In this form it is much more convenient and easier to take than in the old-fashioned powder or capsule form—cheaper, too; a 10c box of Sentanels should last one several weeks. A physician’s sample package (4 doses) free to any one answering this advertisement. The Sentanel Remedies Co., 801 Madison Ave., Covington, Ky.
