About Constipation.

Certain articles Of diet tend to
check movements Of the bowels. The
most common Of these are cheese, tea
and boiled milk. On the other hand
raw fruits, especially apples and ba-
nanas, also graham bread and whole
wheat bread promote movement Of
the bowels. When the bowels are bad
" constipated, however, the sure way
is to take one or two of Chamberlain's
Tablets immediately after supper.
