age is its guarantee. For more than thirty years it has
ceen in constant use tor the relief of Constipation, Flatulency,
Wind Colic and Diarrhoea; allaying Feverishness arising
therefrom, and by regulating the Stomach and Bowels, aids
the assimilation of Food; giving healthy and natural sleep.

But aught that is worih ihe knowing?"
