THE DOCTOR'S QUESTION Advice Against the Use of Harsh Pur ogatives and Physics.' A doctor's first question when consulted by a patient is, "are your bowels regular?" knows that ninety-eight per cent of illness is attended with inactive bowels and torpid liver. This condition pois ons the system with noxious gases and waste matter which naturally accumulates and which must be through the bowels before health can be restored. Salts, ordinary pills and cathartics may be truly likened to dynamite. Through their harsh,irritating action they force' a passage through the bowels, causing pain and damage to the delicate intestinal structure which weakens the whole system, and at best only produces tempor ary relief. Th repeated use of such treatments cause chronic irri tation of the stomach and bowels, hardens their tissues, deadens their nerves, stiffens their muscles and generally brings about an injurious habit which sometimes has fatal results. i^y- Qaij {n a _" We have a positive, pleasant and safe remedy for constipation and bowel disorders in general.
