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

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 II
habitually, and who are accustomed
to resort to the use of laxatives and
cathartics daily.
Many people seemed TO have devel-
oped q perfect mania for taking pills,
and instead of trying to ascertain the
latent cause Of the disease, and remov-
ing 1t by appropriate treatment, they
are content to continue the reckless
use of .axatiyes, aperients, drastic
cathartics and violent purgatives, IN
tu finally Inflammation of the bowels
occurs, which reaches the appendix,
and tho result is appendicitis.
In investigating and tracing the
ca-isatiYe factors of constipation and
it's frequent sequel. appendicitis, II
has been noted by physicians that the
majority of cases were preceded and
acct mpanied by a long standing gas
tro-iEtestinal indigestion.
The idea that appendicitis is brought
on by foreign bodies, such as seeds,
etc, becoming lodged in the appendix,
IS an exploded theory. 1t is now defi-
Titely known that constipation is the
mos prolific cause of this dread dis
ease, while the constipation itself is
previously induced by intestinal indi-
gestion, or amylaceous dyspepsia-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
at.ve drugs and powerful purgatives
will never cure a disease of this sort,
and those who make frequent or regu-
lar use of them Will, sooner or later,
set up an inhammatoTy condition or
The intestinal system.
A person with flrst-claSs digestion
Will Eeyer be annoyed with chrome
constipation, and when this trouble
does exist, instead of smuggling the
system with pills, liquid laxagivCs,
cauj- c8tharticS, etc, use a remedy
which win cure the gastro-intestinal
Indigestion, and you will find that the
constipation no longer bothers you,
and with it's removal, the risk Of de-
veloping appendicitis viii be reduced
10 the minimum.
STUARTS DYSPEPSIA TABLETS
have been the means of curing num-
erous cases Of constipation, by first
curing the intestinal indigestion. They
digest every kind of food, a single
grain being capable OF digesting 3,00S,
grains OF alimentum, and in addition
to pepsin and other powerful diges-
tives. they also contain diastase.
which converts starch into sugar, and
readily cures amylaceous dyspepsia
and intestinal indigestion.
If you are suffering from dyspepsia
constipation, and, in fact. indigestion
of any kind. don't run the risk Of get
ting appendicitis, but strike at the
root Of the trOuble-the original cause
by Using Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets,
which will quickly rid you of ali
functional disorders Of the aliment
airy tract.
