FREEDOM FROM
LAXATIVES
Discovery by Scientists Has Replaced
Them.

Pills and salts give temporary re-
lief from constipation only at the ex-
pense of permanent injury, says an
eminent medical authority.
Science has found a newer, better
way-a means as simple as Nature
iIseir.
III perfect health a natural lubricant
keeps the food waste soft and moving.
But when constipation exists this nat
ural lubricant is not sufficient. Medi-
cal authorities have found that the
gentle lubrieating action of Nujol most
closely resembles that of Natures own
lubricant. As Nujol is not a laxative
1t cannot gripe. 1t is in no sense a
medicine. And like pure water it is
harmless and pleasant.

pressed the button beside the door and
plunged the room in darkness. He

A flash of lightning split the black

Clay dropped to his knees and
crawled away. Another bolt, with its
accompanying roar, famed out.
Still the westerner did not fire in an

target for his bullet was. A plan had
come to him. In the blackness of that
room one might empty his revolver

The delay became a test of moral
stamina The contest was not one of
grit, but of that unfiawed nerve which
is so much the result of perfect physi-

on the desert counted heavily now. He
was master of himself, though his
mouth was dry as whisper and there
were goose quills on his flesh.

Within twenty-four hours Clay heard
some one pounding wildly on the outer
door Of the apartment and the voice
of the cautious guy imploring haste.
