Your /body, the house your soul lives in, also becomes filled up during the winter with all manner^ of filth, which should have been removed from day to day, but was not. Your body needs cleaning inside. If your bowels, your liver, your kidneys are full of putrid filth, and you don't clean them out in the spring, you'll be in bad odor with yourself and everybody else all summer. DON'T USE A HOSE to clean your body inside, but sweet, fragrant, mild but positive and forceful CASCARETS, that work while you sleep, prepare all the filth collected in your body for removal, and drive it off softly, gently, but none the less surely, leaving your blood pure and nourishing, your stomaclv and bowels clean and lively, and your liver and kidneys healthy and active.

When the devil was cast out of hen ven lie stole an angel's robe with which to hide his cloven hoof. One of the biggest fools in the world is the man who thinks the devil's husks can make him fat.
