When any part of the body isn't doing
the work that nature intended 1t to do, 1T
puts the,whole system out of tune-out
of harmony. Sickness In one part OF the
body is likely to run into all parts of the
body. When children stand q row OF
bricks on end, they knock the whole row
down by upsetting one brick. That is
exactly what happens to the health when
the bowels fails to perform their proper
function. Constipation makes trouble all
along the line-puts the liver out of
order, is bad for the kidneys-bad for the
stomach. 1t holds in the body poisonous
matter, and because 1t cannot go any
place else, ii gets into the blood. The
blood carries II all over the system. That
makes sluggishness, lassitude, bad breath
and foul taste in the mouth, fills the
stomach with gas and causes windy
belching, stops digestion in the stomach,
causes sour stomach, heartburn and head
ache. You can avoid all such trouble,

Two Pointed Questions Answered.

What is the use of making a better ar

get a better price for it1
Ans.-As there is no difference in the
price the public will buy only the better,
so that while our profits may be smaller
on a single sale they will be much greater
in the aggregate.
How can you get the public to know
your make is the best?
If both articles are brought prominent
ly before the public both are certain to
be tried and the public will very quickly
pass judgment on them and use only the
better e
