A Simple Remedy to Correct
Constipation Before 1t

Very few people go through life

sands injure themselves by the use
of strong cathartics, salts. mineral
waters, pills and similar things.
They have temporary value in some
cases, 1t is true, but the good effect
is soon lost, and the more one takes
of them the less effective they be-
come.
A physic or purgative is seldom
necessary, and much better and
more permanent results can be OBJ

building an embankment Of earth
