DETECTIVE WORK.

Just as an intelligent detective
sets himself to discover the identity
Of the perpetrator OF crime that
seems mysterious, so the medical
man goes to work to discover the
origin Of the troubles of his pa
tients. He knows that in most
cases some Of the organs OF the body
are not performing their functions
properly, and knowing that In a
large percentage of cases the action
of the bowels is at fault, he early in
quires whether his patient Is consti-
pated. If so, the physician knows
that If cure is to be effected, the
constipation must be not only !re-
lieyed, but permanently remedied
and that in order to accomplish this
certain muscles must be given new
strength and elasticity. For this
purpose successful medical men pin
their faith to preparation Of " OF.
Fluid Extract of SIENNA, X OF.
Rochelle Salts, l OF. Aro-Sagrada.
80 grains Bicarbonate of Soda, IL OF.
water and ~ ozs. Glycerine. OF
this the patient is given teaspoon
full at bedtime and before each meal,
the treatment being continued until
there is free movement of the
bowels. This simple prescription
can be put up by any good druggist.
