Get a 10 cent box now.
Most old people must give to the
bowels some regular help, else they
suffer from constipation. The condi-
ton is perfectly natural. It 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 glasses as to neglect this
gentle aid to weak bowels. The bowels
must be kept active. This is impor-
tant at all ages, but never so much
as at fifty.
Age is not a time for harsh physics.
Youth may occasionally whip the bow
els into activity. But a lash can't be
used every day. What the bowels oil
the old need is a gentle and natural
