THERE'S DEATH IN THE POT''
4 Celebrated Loadeu Doelsr ussd lhs ALsya iS EnpAssiIs the Danger of 0vHsatias. WWss Than 0vsTsatins iS Failurs
 to Eliminate Waste.

Nature could not devise way to feed and repair the body without the production of considerable waste matter. But Nature provided for the regular, thorough elimination of such waste. To disregard her in- tention is to break a natural law.
 Whether you help Nature by wise or foolish means is left to your own judgment. To simply force bowel movement IS unwise, unnatural and ineffective. You can choose harsh, drastic, violently acting drugs or take such without caring what their action or effect is, or you can select some old time-proven, trial-tested remedy. that has been used for 70 years or more by thousands of people all over the world, with the result that it has won an enviable reputa- tion as reliable household remedy. Take Beecham's for example. All khe world knows Beecham's; a good ly part of Che world uses Beecham's, has been using it for years, handing Lts use down from father to son, from mother to daughter, for gem eration after generation, recommend ing it to others. In spite of such extensive and general use, who ever heard complaint or criticism of Beecham's? That in itself is a powerful recommendation.
 Don't take anything for granted. Reason it out. All druggists sell Beecham's-are glad to sell them.
 Beecham's reputation has been made by it's users not by it's sellers.
