FREEDOM COSTS TEN CENTS
A BATTLE

Having sent for your booklet "The
Constipation Habit" studied 1t for
several days and finally decided to
join 1.-The Breakers" I made up my
mind to see it to q finish-or find
myself finished, as I half appre-
hended.
That is the first chapter in the
actual story of one Of our readers,
friends. Before we listen to the Sec
ond chapter Old Doctor Brady must
put in a word. I just want to say
trat our correspondent made Q bum
start. II he felt apprehensive about
the outcome he never should have
joined THE Breakers" at all. The
cards were all against the success Of
the undertaking for him. The first
step in the portentous business Of
breaking the physick habit is the
righting Of attitude. It is question
Of your knowledge Of the fundamental
physiology Of the digestive system.
Unless and until you get that clear
in your noodle, warn you that we
don't want you in 1.-THE Breakers"
Tell your fears or your troubles to the
cop. Apprehensions and half-apprc-
tensions make US tired. Now let the
correspondent continue his narrative:
Nothing alarming happened, how
ever, and after the third day nor
NAL action took place.
Odd. but that suggests the noun
tain that labored and brought forth
a mouse.
It Is quite an anti-climax, after the
promise Of the first chapter. From
there on the correspondent Just fills
up . few pages, much as our million
mystery story writer's do when they've
caught the guilty one and allowed
him or her to gobble down q bit Of
quick poison to save the state nasty
job.
thank you from the bottom Of my
heart :. for IS years have taken
catharticS and consulted many doc.
tors, yet no one ever called 1t a
habit" until you convinced me
I have gone now for seven months
without resorting to anything Of the
kind and consider myself entirely
cured.
Cured? He that complies against
his will is of his own opinion still (no
use trying to correct the quotation,
literary sharps, for I'm copying 1t ver-
batim this time). There Is no cure
concerned. II Is purely and simply
the breaking Of bad habit.
The booklet THE Constipation
Habit" sets you back 4 dime and q
stamped envelope bearing your ad-
dress. II 1t shows you the way to
break the habit absolutely and for
life it u worth your dime and your
while. But I regard the experiment
In Psychology as . total failure Il you
make few feintS or false passes ct
it and then resume your old pill. en-
ema or whatnot.
No use bothering with the expert
ment II you are not first prepared to
believe that speak the scientific
truth when ray that no matter how
much physick you have been accus-
toned 70, no untoward effect will oc-
cur II you abruptly cease using any
such artificial aid: nothing more than
trifling discomfort for . few days In
any case.
