Women of Sedentary Habits

Women who get but little exercise are
likely to be troubled with constipation
and indigestion and will find Chamber
lain's Tablets highly beneficial. Not so
good as three or four mile walk every
day, but very much better than to allow
the bowels to remain in a constipated
condition. They are easy and pleasant
to take and most agreeable in effect.
Obtainable everywhere.
