knowledge and Practice of
Correct Daily Habit the
Great Essential.

Constipation Is a condition affecting
all classes of all people and can be
permanently relieved only by acquiring
habits OF regularity.
The most natural time for the elinl-
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 ac-
ton 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..
CaIdwell's Syrup Pepsin that can be
bought at the drug store for fifty
