EE the thin, round-cornered llttls
Enamel Box below I When
carried in your vest pocket it
means Health-Insurance.
It contains Six Candy Tablets of
pleasant .taste, almost as pleasant , as
chocolate. ;
Each tablet Is a working dose of Cas
carets, which acts like Exercise on the
Bowels and Liver.
It will not purge, sicken, nor
upset the stomach.
Because It Is not a

Senna, nor Aperient
Waters.
These waste Diges

flushing out the Bow

Neither Is It like
Castor Oil, Glycerine,
or other Oily; Laxa
tives that simply
lubricate the Intes-
? S
tines for transit of
the food stopped up In them at that partic
ular time.
These emergency drugs relieve the
Immediate trouble, but do not relieve its
Cause.
The same trouble will therefore recur
again till that Cause Is removed per
manently. The chief cause of Constipation and
Indigestion Is a weakness of the Muscles
that contract the Intestines and Bowels.
Carcarets are practically to the Bowel
Muscles what a Massage and Cold Bath
are to the Athletic Muscles.

Cascarct Box compared to Watch.
They stimulate the Bowej Muscles to
contract,1 expand, and squeeze the Diges
tive Juices out of food eaten.' . ,:
Cascaret3 do" this naturally, without
purging or discomfort.
1 yTh'ey don't help the Bowels and Liver
in such a wajr as to make them lean upon
similar assistance for the future.
This is why, with Cascarets, the dose
may be lessened each succeeding
time Instead of Increased, as It
must be with all succeeding doses
of other Cathartics and Laxatives.
.
Cascarets act like
exercise.
If carried In your
Vest Pocket, (or car
ried In My Lady's
Purse), and eaten
Just when you sus
pect you need oneT
you will never know a

these Ills begin In
the .Bowels , and

paves the way for
all other Diseases.
