Permanent Relief for

knowledge and Practice of Cor
rect Daily Habit the
Great Essential

Constipation is condition affecting
all classes Of all people and can be
permanently relieved only by acquir-
ing habits of regularity.
The most natural time for the elm
NATIVE process is in the morning
when both the muscular and nervous
systems are relaxed by sleep and rest.
When relief does not come readily, it
is an excellent plan to take a mild
laxative at bedtime. Cathartics and
purgatives, that by the violence Of
their quick action shock and disturb
the system, should not be employed.
An effective laxative remedy that IS
very dependable, and which does not
grippe or otherwise disturb the organs
involved, is found in combination Of
simple laxative herbs known as DR..
Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin that can be
bought at the drug store for fifty cents
bottle.
Mrs. c. c. Allen, els Foam ST., New

needed to end distress. and the stomach
demands them after every meal.

by using remedy like Mi-o-na Stomach
