SAL HEPATICA

We invite the attention of the Medical Profession to a careful consideration of the merits of SAL HEPATICA in the uric acid diathesis, in constipation, and to its highly important property of cleansing the entire alimentary tract, thereby preventing the development of conditions arising from indiscretion in eating and drinking, and the absorption of irritating toxins.

Composition.-Sal Hepatica contains all of the Tonic, Alterative and Laxative Salts of the celebrated "Bitter Waters" of Europe, especially those of Bohemia, as determined by actual chemical analysis of these waters, and fortified by the addition of Lithium and Sodium Phosphates. The admixture of these phosphatic salts with the salines of the "Bitter Waters" is exactly in accord with the practice that now obtains among the most eminent European physicians, who prescribe these salts in copious draughts of mineral waters-Carlsbad, Pullna, Seidlitz, Marienbad, Hunyadi, Freidrichshall, etc.

General Properties.-Sal Hepatica possesses marked Alterative, Antacid, Anti-Lithic, AntiRheumatic, Cholagogue, Deobstruent, Diuretic, Secernent, Tonic, Laxative and Cathartic properties.

and the various troubles arising from gastric, hepatic and renal disorders.

Ideal Laxative.-Sal Hepatica is the ideal Laxative for all ages and conditions. It is not in the least depressing, but, on the contrary, is a Physiological Tonic; its use DOES NOT establish toleration leading to increased dosage; and its withdrawal, unlike other agents, does not leave the bowels more constipated than at the beginning. There are times in every physician's practice when recourse is made to saline laxatives and purgative mineral waters. Especially are these saline laxatives used when it is desired to dilute and purify the blood, thus furthering the processes of secretion and excretion and flushing the "great sewer" of the economy and its adjuncts and tributaries, thereby eliminating the irritating toxins formed from the waste products of imperfectly digested food.

Uric Acid Solvent.-Sal Hepatica is the most powerful solvent of Uric Acid known, and for this reason it is the most efficient remedy for the treatment of Gout and Rheumatism, diseases characterized by an excess of Uric Acid in the blood and deposits in or about the joints.

Diabetes is treated with decided advantage by means of Sal Hepatica. Aside from the beneficial effects of this remedy as a cholagogue in this malady, it also possesses the property of arresting the secretion of sugar in the liver. Samples of Sal Hepatica sent upon request. BRISTOL-MYERS COMPANY,

HE ideal safe family laxative, known as-Syrup of Figsis a product of the California Fig Syrup Co., and derives its laxative principles from senna, made pleasant to the taste and more acceptable to the stomach, by being combined with pleasant aromatic syrups and the juice of figs. It is recommended by many of the most eminent physicians, and used by millions of families with entire satisfaction. It has gained its great reputation with the medical profesion by reason of the acknowledged skill and care exercised by the California Fig Syrup Co. in securing the laxative principles of the senna by an original method of its own, and presenting them in the best and most convenient form. The California Fig Syrup Co. has special facilities for commanding the choicest qualities of Alexandria senna, and its chemists devote their entire attention to the manufacture of the one product. The name-Syrup of Figsmeans to the medical profession "the family laxative, manufactured by the California Fig Syrup Co.," and the name of the Company is a guarantee of the excellence of its product. Informed of the above facts, the careful physician will know how to prevent the dispensing of worthless imitations when he recommends or prescribes the original and genuine-Syrup of Figs. It is well known to physicians that-Syrup of Figs-is a simple, safe and reliable laxative, which does not irritate or debilitate the organs on which it acts, and, being pleasant to the taste, it is especially adapted to ladies and children, although generally applicable in all cases. Special investigation of the profession invited.
