BE LOYAL TO YOURSELF let Kruschen Help Keep You Well Do you know that millions of people throughout the Empire, take the ’’little daily dose” of Kruschen Salts every morning of their lives? They are being loyal to themselves because Kruschen helps to keep them on the job and on their toes— whether they axe on active service, in the kitchen, the office, at a lathe or an assembly line.Why get behind m your work, why lose a day’s pay, a night’s sleep, an hour’s fun—-why grow old before your years—when Kruschen Salts will help you battle .the com­ mon cause of these disappointments? Kruschen helps banish the misery of headaches, backache, twinges of rheumatism, sour stomach? It does this because it contains, not one or two, but several specially chosen mineral salts, in very minute crystal (almost powder) form — that help clear your body, of waste, of poisons, blood impurities. . ,No large dosage is required. No bloating aftermath. No violent laxative effect. Simply take what you can put on a dime—in your morning glass of water. Keep taking it just that way and see how soon you will get relief, how it gradually imparts to you that glorious feeling of tingling fitness that, makes you willing to tackle anything. All be­ cause it helps banish body waste and poisons. At drug Stores 25c, 45c, 75c. On Guaranteed Trust Certificates .
