For the benefit of our readers we publish timely and interesting talk by Prof. T. Il. Midgley on point which is most vital to every man, woman and child in this country-the way to stop the spreading danger of hroni: con- stipation. All he says is true, as evil dences of it are so many and varied as seen in hundreds of letters from those who have done as he advocates that we think it will be a public bene- fit to make them known. We recom- mend Professor Midgley most earnestly to our readers.
 24-Hour "Hahit" All Important.
 Tt is one of the simplest things in the world to cure even the worst case Of chronic constipation, and yet nearly every other man and woman you meet is positively so stopped up as to be hardly able to think clearly. To get the habit every 24 hours regularly works wonders. By the habit I don't mean the cathartic habit, but 1 mean the natural, easy move that every one ought to have without having to make rush for the pill-box every night.
 Must Quit Pill Habit.
 You young and middle-aged men and women who eat and drink every thing you like, and you old men and women who are addicted to pill-eating to keep your overdue bowels going, you don't realize that there would not be one one-hundredth part of the dis ease on earth today if your bowels Were absolutely regular.
 You can shake your fist at almost any old disease known, if you've got the bowels that do business every 24 hours. This is plain talk, but every doctor will tell you the same thing, only he may be more particular in his language, but it won't have the inn pression on your mind.
 Now, you can't cure constipation with cathartics and one of the req sons why there is much constipation tn6qV Q Cn n V drugs, liquids and unnatural bowel movers guzzled and swallowed by so many thousands of people.
 Tt is true these cathartics sluice out the bowels clean, but they also s1uice out that bowel-moying juice or secre tion which Nature has put in every good bowel to make it work easy and right. When this natural juice in the bowel is--cleaned out your bowels be- come mere deadpipes. Then you get a bad case of constipation and pills are swallowed to do the moving. This goes on, over and over again.
 Take it for granted now that you have got to quit taking pills and drugs. castor oil, cascara, jalap, gam boge and all other cathartics before you can ever hope to cure your consti- patton.
