Constipation And
Appendicitis
The Latter Usually Caused BY The
Former, Which, In Turn, Has it's
Origin In Intestinal Indigestion.


Chronic constipation Is a disease
which is about as prevalent as dyspep-
STA and Indigestion. Nearly every one
suffers from it occasionally, but there
are millions of people who endure it
habitually, and who are accustomed
to resort to the use of laxatives and
cathartics daily.
Many people seemed to have devel.
oped a perfect mania for taking pills,
and instead of trying to ascertain the
latent cause of the disease. and re-
moving 1t by appropriate treatment,
they are content to continue the reck-
less use of laxatives. aperients, drastic
cathartics and violent purgatives, un-
til finally inflammation of the bowels
occurs. which reaches the appendix,
and the result is appendicitis.
In investigating and tracing the
causative factors of constipation and
its frequent sequel, appendicitis. it has
been noted by physicians that the ma
jority Of cases were preceded and &C
companied by long-standing CASTRO
intestinal indigestion.
brought on by foreign bodies, such as
seers. ETC., becoming lodged in the ap-
pendix, is an exploded theory 1t is
now definitely known that constipa-
ton is the most prolific cause of this
dread disease, while the constipation
itself is previously induced by intes-
final indigestion. or amylaceous dys-
pepsia-the inability to digest starches
so the relation between cause and
effect is readily seen and appreciated.
The absurdity Of attempting to cure
constipation by the use of physic
should be apparent to every one. Lax
alive drugs and powerful purgatives
will never cure disease Of this sort,
and those who make frequent or regu-
lar use of them will, sooner or later.
set up an inflammatory condition of
the intestinal system
A person with first-class digestion
will never be annoyed with chronic
constipation, and when this trouble
does exist. instead OF smuggling the
system with pills, liquid laxatives,
candy cathartics, ETC., use a remedy
which will cure the gastrointestinal
indigestion, and you will find that the
constipation no longer bothers you,
and with its removal, the risk of de-
veloping appendicitis will be reduced
to the minimum.

Gus cases of constipation, by first cur

tives, they also contain diastase.
which converts starch into sugar. and
readily cures amylaceous dyspepsia
and intestinal indigestion.
