Constipation Caused
BY Indigestion
Is Cured by Helping the Stomach Do
Its Work as It Should.

All forms OF constipation, bowel or in
testnal trouble owe most OF their origin
10 the improper digestion of food. The
bowels measure thirty feet. The inside
walls or surfaces are wound tightly about
with millions Of nerves. These nerves give
life and control millions of little mouths
or suckers which are supposed TO take
nourishment from the food as it leaves
! the stomach and passes along this thirty
foot human canal.
When indigestion. dyspepsia OF stomach
trouble occurs. the food being undigested
RAISES over these millions of mouths il
is fermented deeaying mass and holds
TO nourishment as Il should.
The little mouths suck 1t I'D, impart
these impurities to the blood, impregnate
the little nerves with poison and so the
work OF constipation and bowel trouble
begins
A natural juice or secretion belongs nor
maily In the little cells and glands along
! the mucous membrane of the thirty-foot
canal or bowels. When indigestion occurs
this juice is lacking and so the mass Of
waste matter cannot pass along as It
should and IS piled up and caked in the
bowel, thus bringing pain and misery.
After a while the nerves and nerve cen
tiers which give vigor and life to the
bowel becomes paralyzed, thus forever
prohibiting the bowel from performing its
natural duties.
