WHY IS A PILL HOUND?

| All finer subtleties aside, here is the reason why the majority Of dn p and snorant they can't learn anything If this strikes you as foul islander your own wrong iVing, nope you will do something more 'hah c'i'oe 'e
 Constipation is the same thing whether .oS you affect to call it intestinal stasis' or old-1ash- toned torpid liver" In perhaps one instance out of a hundred it is a symptom or manlleslation or effect of actual disease when reg requipes ne. nroner medical or surgical treatment ana not monkeying with diet or laXatlVes. Tn the c.uei ninety nine cases-and I believe am perlectay conservative in these fgures-in the other nine tvnine cases the trouble is merely a bad habit
 The castor oil complex of parents, nurses grannies, neighbors-yes and too many %Eah- %1ah- ment of the constipation habit In the nlaJo,is Jo of cases. Castor o more than most other phss ics, has after-effect which IS even llot ' marked than the primary cathartic effect. It acts to bind the bowel. It is for this precise reason
 that doctors commonly ge castar ol nj, III nsuav perpetrated upon little or no preteXt upse's .he normal physiological control or regulation or the infants alimentary function. ana generaNv es- tablishes the constipation habit. .
 The thing the victim of constipation finds it so hard to learn is that most of the htings he thinks he knows about the regulation of the bowels are not so. The poor sap believes whatever the nil vendor pleases to tell him about this and re- fuses to listen to what try to tell him. I am trying to impart an elementary lesson Tn phySi- oogy and incidentally a secret or better heaHn, n hut the health ignorant layman just can't get this through his pate, especially if he has been exposed to some highbrow college education College people are the toughest customers III lhe It is not just a wild theory of mine that if you will let it alone the alimentary function will al ways regulate itself Indeed I myself formerly held the opposite theory. But have been com peled by actual experience to recognize that the control of the cation of the bowels IS as auto matic as is the control of the action of the heart or the pancreas. And what is more, l have re- ceived literally thousands of letters from former slaves of the physic habit who have been freed for life by recognizing the same thing.
 We haven't room to go into the 'autolntoXlca- innn hora IL is my firm belief that no such poisoning ever happens, except in the gravest illness

 Upon your advice I consulted Dr - for chemical treatment Q, se,ns ests i far be yond my expectation. The doctor doesn't think will need another. I am so elated over 1t that am anxious to pass the word along to a relative of minc similarly afflicted. i'm Louisville. Is there doctor there who gives this treatment? (Mrs A. H. O.
 Apswer-Yes there are plenty of good doctors in Louisville. Any up to date physician can sue treatment for varicose veins in his office without detaining the patient more than an hour.
