CONSTIPATION.
THE HARM IT CAUSES. .Constipation is the root of ninetenths of the sickness of men and a large proportion of the sickness of women. It is a simple thing of itself but like many other simple things, it may grow and become complicated. When the bowels are clogged the waste matter decays and ferments and enters the blood and is carried to all parts of the body, producing Headaches Heartburn, Loss of Appetite, Indigestion, Neuralgia, Rheumatism, and various other ailments, disturbing the Heart and Nervous System, and if continued is liable to cause Inflammation of the Bowels, Liver, and Kidneys.
. To maintain a healthy system the bowels should operate at least once every twenty-four hours. This is one of Nature’s wise provisions which is too often ignored, and the result is untold suffering. Nature often requires a little assistance, and if this assistance Is given at the first indication much distress and suffering may be averted. Dr. Morse’s Indian Root Pills are purely vegetable, and as a family Remedy for Costiveness possess a wide reputation. They are mild in the action, causing neither weakness nor sickness, and do not gripe.
