Knights of old-crusaders who went to
conquer the world, could not hope to
succeed unless they were i'll vlrile, hearty
health. A man cannot face difficulties if
his stomach isn't in good order. Dis
ordered digestion will make sluggish
coward out of any man. 1t makes his
mind stagnant, and he cannot think
quickly enough to accomplish anything.
It makes his movements slow, and takes
all of the snap out of him. Every man
in business in America has fight on his
hands lust as much as ever had belted
knight. 1t is a matter of life and death,
Just the same with him as it was with the
crusader. Indigestion and all the ills
that go with it, most frequently start in
constipation. That keeps all sorts of inn
purities in the body, forces them into the
blood and SO deranges the whole system.
Constipation is one of the comnlonest
ills, and to it are traceable most of the
disorders that make people sick. Once
it gets a firm hold on man, it is most
difficult to overcome it. Temporary re-
lief can be obtained in thousand ways.
There are medicines on the market that
will help as long as you take them.
