Transcript

The makers of X-Laks present, strange as it seems, as fantastic and as colorful as the tales in the Arabian Nights, are the strange stories from all times and all countries, which are presented to you twice each week by the makers of X-Laks, the original chocolateed laxative.

The chances are that you know about X-Laks, that you have a box in your medicine chest at this moment, because X-Laks is overwhelmingly the world's favorite laxative. It outsells every other brand by a very wide and generous margin.

In America alone, more than 46 million boxes of X-Lax were used last year. If, however, you're one of the few people who doesn't know about X-Lax, may we suggest that you try it the next time you need a laxative, you will find it so mild and gentle that you will hardly know you have taken a laxative.

And yet, for all its mildness, X-Laks is completely effective. And it's a joy to take, since it tastes like the finest, most delicious chocolate. Once you have tried X-Laks, we believe no other Laksative will ever do for you again.

It is equally good for every member of the family, and it is very inexpensive too, just 10 cents a box at any drug store. A baby spy, during the French Revolution, was unhealthy for aristocrats.

of the most dangerous occupations was rescuing unfortunate noblemen from the merciless revolutionary tribunals. So far, Pilipe, Duke of Orleans, has been safe. He has been a friend of the common people. But danger threatens Pilipe. His friend, an English woman, Mrs. Grace Eliot, meets him in his chateau.

Pilipe, if the people find out that you were spurting aristocrats out of France, you will go to the guillotine the next day. I know. I must risk that. But how can you continue to be a friend of these heartless wild beasts?
