Constipation is the chief enemy Of
the food tract. It is disease of CIV

that civilized man is the only animal
that suffers from constipation to any
great extent? Constipation is a
stranger to the savage, the monkey
and all the loWer animals.
Among the causes of constipation,
we find hasty eating, too concentrated
diet, irregularity in responding to the
call Of nature and an insufficient
amount of fluids taken into the body.

Drugs will not cure constipation.
Thomas Carlisle said that we are a
nation of dyspeptics. Our American
digestion is said to be the worst in the
world. 1t is due to the fact that we
eat the things that do not give the
bulk needed. The intestinal tract re-
quires plenty Of roughness to produce
sufficient stimulus to force the waste
matter along the tube.
Fresh air and exercise are also val
liable aids in digestion. Avoid hasty
eating. Masticate your food well. Do
not take large drafts of ice cold water
during meals. Do not overload your
stomach. The stomach is your power
house, so treat it right.
