Ordinary Cathartics and mis and narsn Physic Cause Distressing Complaints. You cannot be over-careful In the selection of medicine for children. Only the __ very gentlest bowel medicine should ever ?1 be given, except in emergency cases. Or- J [ dinary pills, cathartics and purgatives are apt to do more harm than good. They cause griping, nausea and other distressing after-effects that are frequently healthdestroying and a life-lasting annoyance. We personally recommend and guarantee Bexall Orderlies as the safest and most dependable remedy for constipation and associate bowel disorders. We have such absolute faith in the virtues of this remedy that we sell it on our guarantee of money back in every Instance where it fails to give ?_ entire satisfaction, and we urge all in need of such medicine ta try it at our risk. Bexall Orderlies contain an entirely new < ingredient which is odorless, tasteless and j colorless. As an active agent, it embraces the valuable Qualities of the best known intestinal regulator tonics. ? Bexall Orderlies are eaten like candy. They are particularly prompt and agreeable in action, may be taken at any time, day or night; do not cause diarrhoea, nausea, griping, excessive looseness or other undesirable effects. They have a very natural action upon the glands and organs with which they come in contact, act as a positive and regulative tonic upon the relaxed muscular coat of the bowel and its dry mucous lining; remove irritation,over- ~W come weakness, tone and strengthen the M~ nerves and muscles, and restore the bowels and associate organs to more vigorous and healthy activity. Bexall Orderlies completely relieve constipation, except when of a surgical character. They also tend to overcome the necessity of constantly taking laxatives to keep the bowels in normal condition. There is realiy no medicine for this purpose so good as Rexall Orderlies, especially for children, aged and delicate persons. They are prepared In tablet form, In two Ml sizes of packages: 12 tablets 10 cents, and \J 36 tablets 25 cents.
