Most old people must give TO the bowels
some regular help. else they suffer from
constipation. The condition 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 20 aid weak eyes
with glasses as TO neglect this gentle aid
20 weak bowels. The bowels must be
kept active. This Is important at all
ages. but never 30 much as at fifty.
Age Is NOT a TIME for harsh physics.
You may occasionally whip the bowels
into activity. But a lash can't be used
every day What the bowels OF the old
need Is a gentle and natural tonic. One
that can be constantly used without
harm. The only such tonic is casearets.
ana they cost only 10 cents per box at
any drug ore.--Advertisement
