Young and old, weakly and strong, all find themselves at some time enduring its unpleasant effects, such 33 Headache, Drowsiness, Lassitude, Loss of Appetite, etc. When constipation is dealt with promptly and suitably, there is nothing to fear from this complaint; but if constipation be not checked, or if unsuitable measures be employed, it may become chronic, and be the cause of graver ills. Strong purgatives are not to be recommended. Their severe strain leaves the system weaker, and more prone than before to the same sluggishness. The wrong treatment is as bad as no treatment at all.
