REGULARITY without strain or effort 
In many cases a laxative can be taken in safety only if it induces regularity without strain or effort. 
'Mil-Par' * is the laxative advised where an strain must be avoided. Its safe and effective results are due to a blend of two long-proven and well-trusted products-'Milk of Magnesia' * and Medicinal Paraffin. 
The gentle powers of both are blandly combined to ensure effortless regularity. A convenience for all - 'Mil-Par' meets an urgent need for invalids, the aged, expectant and nursing mothers, and sufferers from hemorrhoids
