FOLKS PAST FIFTY
MUST USE CASCARETS
What Glasses are to Weak Eyes. Cas-
carcts Are to Weak Bowcls-A 10
cent Box VIII Truly Amaze You.

Most old people give to the bowels
some regular help else they suffer
from constipation. The condition is
perfectly natural. 1t is just as natural
as ii is for old people to walk slowly
For age is never so active as youth.
The muscles are less elastic. And the
bowels are muscles.
So all old people need Cascarets.
One might as well refuse to aid weak
eyes with glasses as to neglect this
gentle aid to weak bowels. The bow
els must be kept active. This is i'm
portant at all ages, but never so much
as at fifty.
Age is not a time for harsh physics
Youth may occasionally whip the
bowels into activity. But a lash
can't be used every day. What the
bowels of the old need is a gentle and
natural tonic. one that can be con-
stantly used without arm. The only
such tonic is Cascarets and they cost
only 10 cents per hox at any drug
store. They work while you sleep.
