WHY MANY WOMEN SUFFER
FROM CONSTIPATION
The Natural Remedy.

The delicate and intricate character Of
the female organs make them most sus-
ceptibIe to irregularity. and II is most i'm
portant that each one should be kept in
condition to perform It's duties IN a normal
manner When womankind is performing
the functions peculiar to her sex there Is a
decided tendency to siuggishness of the
bowels. Nature then requires q gentle as
sistant. Not powerful and expensive reme-
dies which are so drastic as to damage the
tender lining Of the bowels and do more
harm than good. but a pure and harmless
laxative, such as HCNYADI JANoS
Water, the famous Natural Laxative. y
a tumblerful taken on rising will move the
bowels gently but copiously and in a
natural manner. One bottle contains many
doses and costs hut n trifle.
At all druggists-but look out for un-
scrupulous druggists, who will substitute
unless you ask for HUNYAD1 JANos.
