tablets,
capsules, salts, artificial waters--if you occasionally drink a
wine-glass of AbilenA when conditions call for a laxative or cathartic.

AbilenA comes to you pure--just as it flows from the Famous Wells of
AbilenA--harmless as the water you drink--clear, sparkling, vitalizing.
It flushes and cleanses the system thoroughly, and in the gentlest way
possible. Instead of irritating the delicate membranes of the stomach
and bowels, as drugs and artificial waters are very apt to do, it
relieves congestions and soothes these membranes, and it stimulates
liver activities.

There is no magic in the name, AbilenA, nor no special virtue simply
because it happens to be America's only natural cathartic water, but its
splendid clinical value and effect is due solely to the fact that
AbilenA is almost wholly pure and true Sodium Sulphate--the world's
truest representative of this ideal laxative and reconstructive base,
All the other waters on the markets are largely solutions of Epsom
salts, consequently are nauseous, harsh and irritating. The same thing
is more or less true with pills, powders and the manufactured
cathartics.

AbilenA is a safe, sure, inexpensive laxative and cathartic, convenient
and pleasant to take, suited for old and young alike, a cure for
constipation and biliousness, and truly the ideal family remedy.

AbilenA is America's Only Bottled Natural Cathartic Water.

We will mail, free, upon application, "The Natural Method," an
interesting booklet on the importance of normal elimination and a study
of the comparative values of the better known cathartics.

THE SAD STORY OF MY FATHER'S GREAT SUFFERING FROM CANCER

Read the following and be convinced. There's hope for you.

Forty-five years ago my father, who was himself a doctor, had a vicious
cancer that was eating away his life. The best physicians in America
could do nothing for him. After nine long years of awful suffering, and
after the cancer had totally eaten away his nose and portions of his
face (as shown in his picture here given) his palate was entirely
destroyed together with portions of his throat. Father fortunately
discovered the great remedy that cured him. He lived over 40 years and
no return of the disease.

The same discovery has now thousands who were threatened with operation
and death. And to pro
