Constipation and
Appendicitis
The Latter Usually Caused BY The
Former, Which, In Turn, Has Its
Origin In Intestinal Indigestion.

Chronic constipation is a disease which
lie about as prevalent as dyspepsia and in
digestion. Nearly every one suffers from
it occasionally, but there are millions OF
people who endure it h~abitually, and who
are accustomed to resort to the use OF
laxatiyes and cathartics daily.
Many people seemed to have developed
n perfect mania for taking pills. and in
stead of trying to ascertain the latent
cause of the disease, and removing 1t by
appropriate treatment, they are content to
continue. the reckless use of laxatives,
aperients, drastic cathartics and violent
~purgatives, until finally inflammation Of
the bowels occurs, which reaches the ap-
pendix, and the result is appendicitis.
In investigating and tracing the causa-
tive. factors of constipation n its fire.
Quent sequel, appendicitis, 1t has been
noted by physicians that the majority of
cases were preceded and accompanied by
a Ion outstanding castro intestlnal indiSes-
ton.
The idea that appendicitis is brought on
by foreign bodies, such as seeds, etc, be-
coming lodged in the appendix. is an ex-
ploded theory. Ii is now definitely known
that constipation is the most prolific cause
of this dread disease, while the coDstipa-
ton itself is previously induced by intesti-
nal indigestion, or amylaceous dyspepsia
the inability to digest starches-so the re-
lation 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. Laxative drugs and
powerful purgatives will never cure q dis
ease Of this sort, and those who make fire.
qnent or regular 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 laXa-
tiyes, candy eathartics, etc, use a remedy
which will cure the gastro-intestinal indi-
g~estion, and you will find that the consti-
patton no longer bothers you, and with its
removal. the risk of developing appendicitis
will be reduced to the minimum.
