Constipation Constipation is the root of nine-tenths of the sickness of man, and a large proportion of the sickness of women. It is a simple thing of itself, but, like many 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, Biliousness, Sleeplessness, 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 arid-Kidneys. To maintain a healthy system the bowels should operate at least once every 24 hours. This is one of Nature’s wise provisions which is too often ignored, and the result is untold suffering. Women and children are the greatest offenders, but why such should be the case is a problem to be solved. Nature often requires a little assistance, and if this assistance is given at the first indication much distress and suffering may be averted. Mothers, especially, should guard the health of their children, and inculcate regular habits from infancy. As a family Remedy for Costiveness, Dr. Morse’s Indian Root Pills have a wide reputation. They are mild in their action, causing neither weakness nor sickness, and do not gripe. To overcome constipation take from one to four Pills regularly until the Bowels move daily, and are restored to healthy action.

Road, Taranaki via Stratford, N.Z., “ found Dr. Morse’s Indian Root Pills a splendid active medicine, and my experience of two years’ use enables me to conscientiously stale that they do all that you claim for them. They relieve constipat >n at once, and do not cause pain or sickness. For children I find them invaluable, end a dose occasionally keeps them in good health. I recommend them to my neighbours, who speak very highly of Dr. Morse’s Indian Root Pills, and I consider that no household should be without them, as they are a splendid family medicine.” &-MOPSE-S “ knlftN “ PILLS’ -— ; . •...:
