Constipation and Indigestion.
These are twin eviie. Persons suf
fering from indigestion are often trou
bled with constipation. Mrs. Robert
Allison, Mattoon, 111., writes that
when she first moved to Mattoon she
was a great sufferer from indigestion
and constipation. Food distressed her
and there was a feeling like a heavy
weight pressing on her stomach and
chest. She did not re.-t well at night,
and felt worn out a goexl part f t ho
time. One bottle of Chamberlain'.;
Tablets corrected this trouble so that
she has since felt like a different per
son.
