Doctor’s Treatment ~— For Constipation Dr, Carl Weschke, in his privat prac- tice, first perfected the intestinal clean- ser and prophylactic known as Adlerika. 1t is a compound of | Sal Amarum, the | saline intestinal evacpant found in famous health !zflms of Europe, with cascara, buck- | horn, glycerin and other ingredients. Cascara and buckthorn, a leading scientific authority says, not only empty the bowels without intestinal discomfort, but also act as a tonic i0 i the intestine and so tends to prevent | the recurrence of constipation which | usually follows the use of many other | 2 . DOUBLE Action Most laxatives act on lower bowel only, but Adlerika acts on BOTH up- per and lower bowels (on both large and small intestine). And in addition to intestinal cleans- ing, the bacteriological tests of Dr. H. L. Shoub of New York show that Ad- lerika greatly reduces the disease breeding germs in the intestines. i Often the FIRST spoonful of Adler- | ika brings out surprising old poisonous | matter which you would never believe was in your system and which may | have caused gas bloating or other | stomach trouble.
