Thinking people realize It Is better to keep the liver, kidneys and bowels working regularly and normally. One becomes constipated and bilious because all food has a percentage of Indigestible waste, the richer the diet the greater this percentage, and in time It packs and retards the eliminative processes of liver and kidneys. But all you rteed is Jacobs’ Liver Salt to give a gentle flushing which loosens and washes a way waste and fermentation In the natural elimination. Jacobs’ Liver Salt is the most nat ural liver tonic. Sodium sulphate and lithium st'mulate and augment the nat ural digestive sulphates In the blood; Instead of forcing it works naturally, gently, but promptly.
