The Panama Canal is a clear passageway as far as the Culebra Cut. But Gold Hill has a way of slipping into the cut. And until dredges can clear the channel, the industrial schedule of the world is out of gear. How about your own canal? The intestinal canal is a clear passageway as far as the large intestine. There, if you become constipated, waste matter is allowed to stagnate. It becomes unnaturally dry and undergoes abnormal fermentation and putrefaction. Germ activity is increased. Your whole system is out of gear. Result, the production of irritating and poisonous substances, which are absorbed into your blood and carried all over your body, liable to pro- duce disease anywhere. The longer such stagnation is allowed to exist, the harder it is to clean out the canal 90% of human disease originates in the “Culebra Cut.”” If engineers tried to blast out the slide from Culebra Cut they would have more slides to cope with. If you try to blast out accumulated waste from your Culebra Cut with pills, salts or purges, you will increase your constipation—and next time you will have to take stronger medicine in a larger dose. You can’t dredge yeur canal You can clean it out with Nujol. Nujol softens the mass, and supplies the intestinal canal with sufficient moisture to replace deficient mucus. It causes the obstructive waste matter to pass gently out of your system at a regular hour, absorbing and removing the poisons as it gocs Nujol regularity keeps the traffic of your mind and body operating on schedule. You admire the Panama Canal system. Why not safeguard your own? Your druggist has Nujol Warning: NUJOL is sold only in sealed bottles bearing the Nujol Trade Mark Insist on Nujol.
