If you are subject to frequent headaches, there is a message of hope for you in the letter published below. It is from a man who had a headache every morning for two years. He tried many medicines with no results. Truly, a chronic case. But it yielded to Kruschen Salts. Read what he has to say:—

“For about two years I had headaches for 3 or 4 hours every morning and often had a bilious feeling, also felt more tired and worn out when rising in the morning than when I went to bed. I can truthfully say that the headaches and biliousness, and also the tired and worn-out feeling have left me, which is due to taking Kruschen Salts. I may mention that previously I had taken many medicines with no good results. I praise Kruschen Salts to all my customers.”—S.O.B.

Headaches can nearly always be traced to sluggish eliminating organs, and to the unsuspected retention in the system of stagnating waste material which poisons the blood. The six salts in Kruschen stimulate the internal organs to healthy, regular action so that no clogging waste is allowed to collect and contaminate the blood-stream. Your inside is kept clean and serene. Result—goodbye to headaches, to that sallow complexion, to that lacklustre eye.

One of the secrets of the effectiveness of Kruschen is the exact proportion of the six different salts it contains. That is why every batch of Kruschen Salts is tested and standardised by a staff of qualified chemists, before it is passed for bottling.

Thus Kruschen can always be relied upon—it will have the same happy results for you that it has had for others.

Kruschen Salts is obtainable at all Chemists and Stores at 2/6 per bottle.

To clean white paint, dust all the ledges and walls first. Wash with a soft woollen cloth, which has been wrung out of warm, soapy water, to which a little borax has been added. Do only a small space at a time. Rinse with clean lukewarm water and dry with a soft duster—linen for preference.

For Enamel.—A sponge is better than a cloth for cleaning white enamel. It should be dusted first, then washed with warm soapy water and rinsed with cold water, dried with a soft cloth and polished with a chamois. A few drops of furniture polish gives a glossy finish to the work.

A wooden skewer is useful for getting dust out of corners.

To clean carpets: Thoroughly sweep carpet or use a vacuum cleaner. If a brush is used for sweeping, sprinkle the carpet with damp well-washed tea leaves or pieces of damp paper which prevent the dust from rising. Wash the carpets occasionally with carpet soap and warm water. Care must be taken not to make the carpet very wet and to do only a small piece at a time. Rinse immediately with a cloth wrung out of cold water, to which a little salt and vinegar have been added (one dessert spoon to quart). If possible, dry in the open air. If the carpet is left in the room to dry, open all windows and doors. Choose a warm sunny day so that the drying process is not unduly delayed.

Shred the wax and soap very finely, put into a quart bottle and pour in the turpentine. Shake well. Allow it to stand over night and it is ready for use.
