HE C K E H8' FARINA, prepared es
presdy 'or families, a delicate and appro
priate food for all seasons, and one ol the most
economical, nutritious, and wholesome prepara
tions ever brought to the table, eminently com
bining the gratification of the palate with ample
and healthful euMeiiance of the body.
Strictly speaking, Heckers' Farina is neither
stringent nor laxative, but restorative, strengcn
ing the digestive and absorbent system. In dis
ordered bowels, diarrhne, dysentery, and even in
case* of cholera, when food i* deemed admissible
by the physicians, Heckers' Farina cannot fail to
be salutary; and wheiever known is exteus'Vely
used in hospital* and private practice. The pres
ervation of health or the prevention of sickness
is at least as im|>orianl as the curing ol disea e.
People in health should therefore u.?e Heckers'
Farina freely, as common food, to preserve the in
estimable blessing.
For sale by grocers and druggists generally.
