More serious sickness is produced by
allowing the bowels to remain in a tor
pid or partially constipated condition
than from any other cause. In many
instances diseases are produced from
which people never wholly recover.
Dyspepsia, piles and nervous disorders
are three of the most common and most
serious. 'I hey are caused by neglect
ing the bowels, and can bo prevented
by an occasional dose of St. Patrick’s
pills, which always produce a pleasant
cathartic effect, and not only physic,
but cleanse the whole system and regu
late the liver and bowels. 25 cents per

Good Advice.—The editor of the
West Branch, Iowa, Record, gives his
readers some good advice: “We have
used Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy in
our family in cases of sudden colds and
sore throat, and find it all that is now
claimed for it. One bottle or less, if
taken according to directions, will, we
believe, effect a cure in any ordinary
case and &ave the expense of large doc
tor bills. Especially do we recommend
it in families where the childreu are
threatened with croup, as it will afford
immediate relief, if taken in time, and
this can always be done if the medicine
is kept on hand, as we are convinced it
should be.” For sale by McConnell.
