P 7 SIM: Constipation is not looked upon as an evil by a great many people, and very little effort is made to cure it.

If the 'waste matter in the body is not got rid of trouble is sure to follow, which sometimes leads to a most serious illness. Among other causes of constipation may be mentioned improper, diet, excessive mental emotion or brain work, and neglect of exercise. In the treatment of constipation three things are especially needful; a mild _ cathartic, proper diet and physical exercise. Of the first and most important, much can be said, but all that is necessary is that nearly all laxative remedies sold to-day are extremely violent in their action, and, therefore, harmful’. Bile Beans for biliousness perform their work gehtly, and! can therefore be taken with perfect safety. With regal’d to diet, all foods may be taken, except those known to be indigestible ; pastry, however, should not be taken at uu. Physical exercise does not mean violent gesticulations for five or ten minutes in the morning, but indulgence in a pleasure-giving exercise such''as walking, rowing or cycling; in any case, not to be of a violent character.
