Mo-. ..u peop,e must give to tnc
bowels some regular help. else they
suffer from constipation. The condition
Is perfectly natural. 1t is just as nat.
ural as II u tor old people to walk
slowly. For age Is never so active ~
youth. The muscles are less elastic
And the bowels ere muscles.
So all old people need Cascarcts. 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 important at all
ages. but never so much as at fifty.
Age is not a time for harsh physics
Youth 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 Cascarets
and they cost only 10 cents per box at
any drug store.~-Advt.
