For the benefit of our readers we pub
lish timely and interesting talk by
Prof. T. H. Midgley on a point which Is
most vital to every man, woman ana
child in this Countrywide way to stop
the spreading danger Of chronic consti-
patton. All he says is true. and evidences
of it are SO many and varied. as seen
in hundreds of letters from those who
have done as he advocates that we think
1t will be a public benefit to make them
known We recommend Professor Midg-
ley most earnestly to our readers:
24-Hour .Habito All Important
ut is one of the simplest things in the
world to cure even the worst case or
chronic constipation, ana yet nearly every
other man and woman you meet is posi-
lively SO stopped up that they are hardly
able to think clearly. To get the habit
every "a hours regularly works wonders.
BY the habit l don't mean the cathartic
habit but / mean that natural, easy
move that everyone ought to have with
out needing to make a rush for the pill
box every night.
Must Quit Pill Habit
you young and middle-aged men and
women who eat and drink everything
you like, and you old men and women
who are addicted to pill-eating to keep
your overdue bowels going, you don't
realize that there would not be one one
hundredth part of the disease on earth
today If your bowels were absolutely reg
uar
you can shake your fist at almost any
old disease known II you've got the
bowels that do business every "A hours.
This is plain talk, but every doctor will
tell YOU the same thing only he may
be more particular in his language, but
it won't have the impression on your
mind.
Now, you cant cure constipation with
cathartics, and one of the reasons why
there is much constipation today Is be-
cause there are so many drugs, liquids
and unnatural bowel movers guzzled
and swallowed by so many thousands OF
people.
at is true these cathartics sluice out
the bowels clean, but they also sluice out
that bowel-moving juice or secretion
which nature has put in every good
bowel to make it work easy and right.
When this natural Juice in the bowel is
cleaned out your bowels become mere
dead-ppes. Then you get bad case of
constipation and pills are swallowed to
do the moving. This goes on, over and
over again.
Take it for granted now that you have
got to quit taking pills and drugs, cas-
tor oil, cascara- Jalap, gamboge and all
other cathartics before you can ever hope
to cure your constipation.
How You Can Stop Constipation
Absolutely
.If YOU will do as / say you can get
rid of your constipation right now and
forget about 1t ever after. You will never
realize, until you have tried it. how pleas
ant and delightful it Is to have every
day-bowels that you don't have to worry
over.
seYour bowels will move themselves If
you will just give them a start the Midg-
ley way You will never realize how
gratifying 1t is to have regular bowels.
and how fine it feels to really live until
you have tried 1t.
II am willing to tell anyone, who will
how to use this simple method, and to
cure himself or herself right at home,
so that 1t will no longer be necessary
to dose with all kinds of harmful drugs
and acids 1 don't ask cent for this
information. / have published book
which contains this Midgley method in
detail, and as 1t would be impossible to
tell you in this brief space what It con-
tains, I will send this book to any man
or woman who Is interested enough in a
cure to send for it..
