Amaze You.

Most old people must give to the
bowels some regular help, else they
suffer from constipation. The condl.
ton is perfectly natural. 1t is just
as natural as It 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 glasse as to neglect this
gentle aid to weak bowels. The
bowels must be kept active. This is
important at all ages, but never so
much as at fifty.
Age is not a time for harsh physics
