Splendid Laxative
for Elderly People.
Has Been Prescribed by Well Known
Physician for Many Years.

The infrmities Of age are especial
ly manifest in tendency to consti-
patton, and call for treatment that
will afford relief in an easy, natural
manner. The rapid action of ca
thartic remedies and purgatives that
shock the system should be avoided,
more especially as the relief they
afford is only temporary and is
usually more than offset by disturb
ance to the vital organs caused by
their violent action.
Nearly thirty years ago DR. W B
Caldwell, Monticello, III, prescribed
a compound of simple laxative herbs
that has since become the standard
household remedy in thousands of
homes. 1t acts easily and gently,
yet with positive effect, without
gripping or other pain or discomfort.
Mrs Rachel Allen, Galesburg, Kans,
is seventy-one years old, and after
