HEALTH How to Get It and How to Keep It If the reading of this article teaches you only this one lesson about your own body it may be worth more than millions of dollars to you; for of what use is money without health, or after you are dead? The lesson is this:—“Keep your system pure and you may have health and strength to gain and enjoy happiness, success and length of years.” But you may ask:— How Can I Keep My System Pare? That is not a hard question to an swer, for Science plainly teaches you that your liver, which is larger than causes bilious indigestion, bo com mon in hot climates. Nature’s Danger Signals When the bile becomes stagnant in your gall-bladder and is dammed back into your liver instead of flow ing freely into your bowels, you, sooner or later, begin to feel some of the following symptoms:—Your breath may become unpleasant (hal itosis), your tongue coated, a bad taste in your mouth, your coffee (and tobacco) lose their natural flavor, your food does not agree with you; you may have heart bum, gas, or fluttering around the heart, dizziness and bile ducts into the small Intes tine and thence through and out of the bowels. When you take Calo tabs you know that you have taken what the doctors call a choiagogue or bile expelling medicine. It cleans you out thoroughly. Every inch of your twenty-five foot canal, including your stomach, small intestine and large intestine or colon is thoroughly cleared and washed clean and pure, and you can see and feel the bile in the stools. (Bile causes a slight burn ing sensation and a bright yellow or greenish yellow color.) Next morn ing your system feels purified and all of the other glands oi tne body combined, has the special work of purifying your blood and thereby your entire system and of keeping it pure. How Does the Liver Purify? Physicians tell us that the liver destroys, or renders harm less, poisons such as uric acid and other toxic waste matter that is normally formed in the tissues, and also prevents the formation of poisons in the bowels by manufacturing a greenish-yellow, bitter fluid called bue, which, between meals, is stored up in the gall bladder, but after each meal is soured out into the intestines. The bile is purgative and in directly antiseptic or prophy lactic. In health it is your bile .that makes your bowels act regularly and freely every day, —it is Nature’s Purgative. It ils your bile that keeps your bowels pure, clean and free from excessive fermentation (gas) and putrefaction. Re member that putrefactive germs do not thrive where there is fresh bile and there can therefore be no fermenta tion to cause gas, nor putre faction to produce poisons, or Noset MOUTH -PHARYNX CALL-V Bladder UV6R>fc 6ALUD0C-n 5TOMACM / TftANSVCftSC /COLON ASCENDING COLON ' SMALL INTEST1NC DESCENDING COLON Small / iHTCSTlNC' -RECTUM Study the above drawing for a few minutes. Notice particularly how the bile flows from the liver into and out of the gall-bladder and thence Into the small Intestine which it enters at a point just below the stomach. A cut-off valve prevents the return of the bUe from the Intestine Into the gall-bladder. The gall-bladder Is the pump lor the bile, acting like the bulb of an atomizer. rerresnea ana you are reeling fine, with a hearty appetite for breakfast. Eat what you wish and go about your work, or pleasure. ♦NOTE—If the stagnation of bile is caused by the pressure of a tumor upon the gall duct, or by a permanently impacted gall stone, only a surgical operation can remove the cause. But the common cause of stagnation of bile is the accumulation of catar rhal mucus in .the gall-bladder or gall-duct. This mucus may be expelled by Calotabs. The mucus is caused by engorgement of the liver, usually the result of over indulgence In highly seasoned foods, or stimulating drinks. Calotabs help to relievo thin en gorgement. Formula and Action of Calotabs The formula of Calotabs Is designed to make calomel taking a pleasure, to obviate the necessity of following it with a dose of Epsom Salts, anr thus make it just as pleasani and safe as any other purga tive. Calotabs are composed of a thoroughly purified and re fined calomel combined with assistants and correctives. The fcoxmes. Also, as Due is Nature s ■purgative, there can be no constipa tion if the bile is flowing naturally land freely from the gall-bladder into the bowels after each meal. But when the bile becomes stag nant your'bowels stop acting regu larly and the contents become a breeding bed for the germs of fer mentation (gas) and putrefaction. These poisons, (called toxines), are gradually absorbed into your blood and if the quantity be more than the liver can destroy, may circulate all over your body, poisoning, irritating or inflaming your brain and nerves, your muscles and Joints, your heart, lakln, kidneys, and every vital organ of your body. Your doctor calls this '“intestinal toxaemia.” and tells you thatyour system is “toxic,” or, if mild, "bilious.” Functions of GaB-Bhtdder Tn 24 hours your liver manufac tures about 3 to 4 teacupsful of bile, which flows through minions of min ute —or duets, uniting to make » large tube which empties into the sail-bladder, as creeks and rivulets ?i nite to form a river that flows into IfJak*. Yourgall-bladder is a hollow muscle that serves the double pur iSTrf s reservoir and a pump. Its functions are similar to those of the SSrhlS&SAtout, three hours an essential digestive fluid, aiding ^ the digestion and absorotion of fats |nd cols. Its absence inevitably or blind spell; you may be troubled with belching or frequent passages of gas from the bowels; the gas “bal loons” your bowels and presses so hard on the kidneys that it gives you pain in the small of your back over your kidneys, making you think you have kidney trouble; at night the gas in your bowels presses upon your bladder making you get up frequent ly, thus breaking into your sleep. In the morning ypu are tired in stead of refreshed. 'Gradually your health is injured. Your complexion becomes sallow or bilious; dark rings may appear under your eyes, you may feel lazy, dull and irritable or blue and melancholic. You may have frequent colds (catarrh) or dull headache; your bowels stop their free, full and natural action; you have constipation, gas, putrefaction and self-poisoning or “intestinal tox aemia,” as the doctors call it. This group of symptoms is referred to, in the South, as “Torpid Liver,” but JPI»rently a better expression might be Torpid Bile Plow. if the above symptoms are very Si"/ ^*7 *r® called bilious; If severe, toxic. Some may be of nervous reflex origin. How to Make the Bile Flow But when the bile stops flowing freely, how can we help Nature start it again? Thj answer is: Take Calo tabs at bedtime and drink water freely the next day.* This formula is designed to increase the force and frequency of contraction of the gall bladder and the upper intestine (duodenum), thus promoting the ex pulsion of bile from the gall-bladder -1 calomel acts as a "cholagogue” or bile-expeller; is diuretic to the Kidneys; and antiseptic (prophy latic) to the bowels, discouraging the growth of putrefactive bacteria and gas formation. The assistants act like salts, washing the calomel out of the system, preventing its accumulation and any danger of salivation. The correctives settle the stomach and bowels, preventing nausea, sickening and griping ef fects. Calotabs (and water) there fore, rive you the combined effects of calomel and salts without the nausea, sickening, and griping effects. When You Need Calotabs Unwholesome foods and drinks, or over-indulgence in good foods and beverages, especially meats, alcohol, coffee, tea and tobacco, cause en gorgement of the liver with stagna tion of bile, and intestinal toxaemia. Colds with their toxines, bring about a similar toxic condition. Hot sum mer weather, overwork, mental strain, irregular habits, and lack of sleep tend to make the system toxic. Whenever you need a thorough cleansing of the food canal, as in colds, constipation, bilious indiges tion, sick headache, engorgement of the liver and its allied organs, the stomach and kidneys, you will find Calotabs a most dependable and ef fective elimin^nt. Millions of Calo tabs have been used annually for twenty years. You need have no fear of using them as directed. Calotabs are quite economical only 25 cents for the family paokage; 10 cents for the trial package, at your I druggist’s.
