L ... VEGETABLE CALOMEL
Vegetable calomel, extract of the root of the old-fashioned may-apple plant, does not salivate. As a fiver stimulator, it's great. It's a perfect substitute for ordinary calomel (mercury): in fact, it's betters because its action is gentle instead of severe and irritating and it leaves no mean, disagreeable aftereffects. Physicians recognize this and prescribe may-apple root (po dophyllin, they call it) daily. Combined with four other standard, all-vegetable remedies, mayapple root may now be had at most any druggist's in convenient sugarcoated tablet form by asking for Sentanel Laxatives. If you forget the name, ask for the box that has thepicture of the soldier on it. These tablets are small, easy to take and are really, wonderful lit tleperformers. They quickly clean but the poisons that are causing you headache, constipation, sour stomach, biliousness, dizzy spells, bad breath and coated tongue. They are mild. They never gripe. And they are a bowel tonic as well as a tleanser and liver regulator. A 10c box should last ' one several weeks.
