Epsom
Salts
Most families keep this old-fashioned
family remedy in the home.
Did you ever notice how Epsom Salts,
after being kept for some time changes
to a white chalky condition and loses its
efficiency ? This is due to the chemi
cal changes occasioned by exposure to
the air, or imperfect storing.
You'll always find our Epsom Salts
bright, clear, fresh crystals and of full
strength.
