SICK, SOUR STOMACH

waste from liver and

Get a 10-cent box now.
That awful sourness, belching of
acid and foul gases; that pain in the
pit of the stomach, the heartburn,-
nervousness, nausea, bloating after
eating, dizziness and sick headache,
means a disordered stomach, which
cannot be regulated until you remova
the cause. Tt isn't your stomach's
fault. Your stomach is as good as
any.
Try Casoarets: they immediately
cleanse the. stomach, remove the «our,
undigested and fermenting food and
foul gases: take the excess bile from
the liver and carry ofT the constipated
waste matter and poison from the
bowels. Then your stomach trouble
IP ended. A Cascaret to-night will
straighten you out by morning—a 10-
cent box from any drug store will
keep your stomach sweet; liver and
bowels regular for months. Don't
forget the children—their little insides
need a good, gentle cleansing, too.
