Constipation meaps infinitely more than :mere failure of the bowels to move regularly and thoroughly. It means stag- nation of waste matter, production of irritant and poisonous substances, and their absorption into the blood by which they are carried all over the body. Cells are poisoned, growth interfered with, and a soil prepared in which germs of disease easily take root and develop. Constipation in infancy is a bac, habit, but giving an infant drugs to force the bowels to move is a trime. A baby is like a bud—both may easily beIblasted. The Nujol Treatment for Constipation is not only absolutely hornless, but is its the highest degree efficient. Nujol, is not aedrug, does not act like any drag. Nujol helps Nature to overcome the had habits by re-establishing natural, easy, thorough bowel evac- uation, as regular as clockwork. Every drop of Nujol taken into the body comes out of the body. But in its passage through the intesti- nal canal, it keepethe bowel contents soft and moist, makes it easier for the intestinal muscles to act, - b - sorbs poisons and helps to discourage germ growth.

"1 suffered from kidney disease, head- ache and indigestion. 1 had no appetite, and 1 could not work. My heart also bothered ane. 1 took Dodd's Kidney Pills, and 1 am now in perfect health. 1 recom- mend ilodd's Kidney Pills to everyone who suffersfrom kidney disease."

This is typical of the testimony tram all over the country. The campaign began asa war effort. Before it ended war had ceased.
