were. was excessively nervous,
could not sleep well at night, my food
seemed to do me no good, and I was
so weak could scarcely walk across
the room.
The doctor said my condition was
due to overwork and close confine-
ment and that he very much feared
that consumption would set in. For
several months / took one kind of
medicine after another. but with no
good effect-in fact, / seemed to grow
worse.
Then determined to quit ali medi,
cines, give up coffee and see what
Grape-Nuts food would do for me.

YOU HAVE NO RIGHT TO
SUFFER
From Constipation, Bowel and Stomach
Trouble.
.. What is the BEGINNING of siclness1

Q. What is the beginning of sickness7
A nStipatioh- :. is.-s
Q. What is Constipation
A. Failure of the bowels to carry off the
waste matter which lies in the alimentary
canal where it decays and poisons the en-
tire system. Eventually the results are
death under the name of some other dis
ease. Note the deaths from typhoid fever
and appendicitis, stomach and bowel
trouble at the present time.
q. What causes Constipation?
A. Neglect to respond to the call of ma
ture promptly. Lack of exercise. Excess
Sive brain work. Mental emotion and i'm
proper diet.
@. What are the results of neglected
Constipation
A. Constipation causes moro suffering
than any other disease. It causes rheu-
matiSm, colds, feverS, stomach, bowel,
kidney, lung and heart troubles, etc. 1t is
the one disease that starts all others.
Indigestion, dyspepsia. diarrhOea, loss of
sleep and strength are its symptoms-piles,
appendicitis and fstula, are caused by
Constipation. Its consequences are known
to all physicians, but few sufferers realize
their condition until it is too late. Women
become confirmed invalids as a result of
Constipation. .
o. Do physicians recognize this2
+ A Yes. The first question your doctor
asks yon is ''are you constipatedl" That
is the secret.
Q. Can it be cured!
4. Yes, with proper treatment. The
common error is to resort to physics, such
as pills, salts, mineral water, castor oil, in
iections, etc, every one of which is in
furious They weaken and increase the
malady. You know this by your own ex-
perience.
O. What then should be done to cure it?
A. Get bottle of A1ull's Grape Tonic a
once. Mull's Grape Tonic will positively
cure Constipation and Stomach Trouble in
the shortest space of time. No other
remedy has before been known to cure
Constipation positively and permanently.
O. What is MulIs Grape Tonic.
A 1t is Compound with 40 per cent. of
the juice of Concord Grapes. 1t exerts a
peculiar strengthening, healing influence
upon the intestines, so that they can do
their work unaided. The process is gradual,
but sure. . II is not Physic, but it cures
Constipation, Dysentery, Stomach and
Bowel Trouble. Having a rich. fruity
grape flavor, it is pleasant to take. As a
tonic it is unequalled, insuring the system
against disease. Is strengthens and builds
up waste tissue.
@. Where can MuIl's Grape Tonic be
had2
A Your druggist sells it. The dollar
bottle contains nearly three times the so
cent size.

mothers.
