U. 1508-1S14 Colorado Street. SEATTLE, WASH. Get What You Ask For! HERE Is a Reason— Why the Good People of America buy Cascareis as Fast as the Clock Ticks. Every second some one, somewhere. Is Buying a little Ten-Cent Box of Cas careis. I, 2, 3. 4. 5, 6—60 times to the Minute, 60 Minutes to the Hour, 3600 Boxes an Hour. 36,000 Boxes a Day of Ten Hours, 1,080,000 Boxes a Month, and then some. Think of it—220,000 People taka a Cascare! tablet each day. Milllona use Cascareis when necessary. The Judgment of M'llions of Bright Americans is Infallible. They have been Buying and Taking Cascarets at that rata for over Six years. It Is not an Experiment, not an Acci dent or Incident, but a sound, Honest Business, based on Tlme-Tried-and-Tested Merit, never found wanting. There is a Reason. e e e Cascarets are the Implacable foe of All Disease Germs; the incomparable cleanser, purifier and strengthener of the entire Digestive Canal. They Act like Exercise on the Bowel- Muscles, make them strong and active— able to Help Themselves do their work keep themselves clean. Cascarets are the safe-guard of Innocent Childhood against the Dreadful Death dealing Dangers that threaten the Liven of the Little Onea. They are Purely Vegetable, absolutely Harmless, always Reliable and ¡efficient. a true, faithful, loyal servant of Mankind. Over Five Milllona of Dollars have been Spent to make the merits of Cas careis known, and every cent of It would be lost, did not sound merit claim and hold the constant, continued friendship, Patronage and Endorsement of well- pleased people year after year. e a e There is also a Reason— Why there are Parasites who attach themselves lo the Healthy Body of Car* caret's success—Imitators, Counterfeiters, Substltutors. They are Trade Thieves who would rob Cascarets of the "Good Will'’ of the people, and sneak unearned profits, earned and paid for by Cascarets. A Dishonest Purpose means a Dishonest Product and a Disregard of the Purchas ers' Health or Welfare. Beware of the Slick Salesman and hit ancient "JusCfs Good" story that com mon sense refutes. Cascarets are made only by the Sterling Remedy Company, and the famous little ten Cent "Vest Pocket" box la here shown. They are never sold In bulk. Every tablet marked "CCC.” Be sure you get the genuine. • • • tr TRtt TO OUR rniKMDSI W« waat to send to oar friends a beaatllW French-desined. GOLD rbATED BORWOOK hard-enameled in colon.
