THE EVILS OF
 CONSTIPATION. Everyone Knows When He is Consti- pated and Everyone Should Know the Risk He is Running When He Fails to Promptly
 Correct it.
Any Disease Epidemic or Otherwise to Which He or She May be Exposed
 is Sure to Result Seriously.

There are two ways to remove consti- patton; the wrong way is to drench the bowels with powerful, gripping, drastic catIlartic that injures the coating of the bowel channels and produces an early return of the trouble in more chronic form The right way is to use natural, easy and mild laxative that tones up and strengthens the bowels and leaves a healthfuI influence behind it. Prickly Ash Bitters will empty the bowels just as thoroughly as the harsher cathartics, and combines all the tonic and strength eaing properties necessary to perma, tent1y cure the habit.

Resolved, That it is the sense of

our plans to bring about general
