FREEDOM FROM
LAXATIvES
Discovery by Scientists Has Replace,
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
itself.
In 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 lubricating action of Nujol most
closely resembles that of Natures own
lubricant. AS Nujol is not laxative
1t cannot grippe. 1t is in no sense a
medicine. And like pure water 1t is
harmless and pleasant.
Nutol is prescribed by physicians
used in leading hospitals. Get bottle

Einstein's brain gets into deeper wa
ter. He turns from his relativity
theory and oegins studying electrons

is that radiations such as light are
streams of flying particles of matter
instead of waves or vibrations in the
ether.
Such probably Is the case with ra-
dium.
