The most common c<use ol constipation is a lask of exercise necessary to keep ihe muscles of the bowels active. That is why constipation is often brought on by too frequent use cf purgatives. They act violeutly performing the work of the bowels for them, and so weaken them that they wll not act without assistance. Chimberlain's Tablets will cure constipation because instead of doing the work of the bowels they gently stimulate them to voluntary action. Their frequent use will not injure the delicite person.

That may be the case when an astringent medicine is used but there is not the lost danger stopping it too quickly when Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Bemedy is taken, as it is not an astringent, and stops the Diarrhoea by curing the disease that caused it. As a rule only two or th-ee doses are required but in very severe cases a whole bottle is sometimes needed. Sold by L. Hotop, chemist. At a military tournament in Great Britain in July, Lieutenant J.
