Healthy old age is so absolutely de
pendent upon the condition of the bow
els that great care should be taken 10
see that they &C: regularly. The fact
is that as age advances the stomach
muscles become weak and inactive and
the liver does not store up the juices
that are necessary to prompt digestion.
Some help can be obtained by eating
easily digested foods apd by plenty of
e1sSc-eise, but this latter is irksome TO
most elderly people. One thing is GER
tain, that state OF constipation should
always be avoided, as il is dangerous
TO life and health. The best plan is
to take a mild laxative as often as is
deemed necessary. But with equal GER
tainty it is suggested that cathartics
purgatives. physics. salts and pills be
avoided, as they do but temporary good
and are so harsh as to be a shock to a
delicate system.
A much better plan and one that
thousands of elderly people are follow
ing, is to take gentle laxative-tonic
like DR.. Caldwells Syrup Pepsin, which
acts as nearly like nature as is possible
In fact, the tendency of this remedy
is to strengthen the stomach and bowel
muscles and so train them to act natu-
rally again, when medicines Of all
kinds can usually be dispensed with.

face without leaving scar. Pimples
broke out all over my face, red and
large. They festered and came 10 a

caused me to scratch them and make
sores. They said they were seed
warts. At night ] was restless from
itching. When the barber would
shave me my face would bleed terri.
bly,. Then scabs would form after
wards, then they would drop of and
the so-called seed warts would come
back again. They were on my face
for about nine months and the troa-
