Perhaps you have never though
of it, but this disorder is due to a
lack of moisture in the residual mat
terof the food. If you will drink an
abundance OF water, eat raw fruits
and take lots of outdoor exercise
you may be able eventually to over
come II entirely. In the meantime
use the most mild and gentle Taxa
tives. Strong and harshe cathartics
take too much water out Of the sys'

Chamberlain's Tablets are easy and
pleasant to take, and most agreeable
in effect. Give them trial.
