“Get all the other girls abusing
me for all they're worth.”
A little boy went up to his grand-
father and said, ‘“Are you very, very
old, grandpa?"
The old man said, “I'm 95, my
son.”
Then: the youngster asked him,
“Have you lost all your teeth?”
And grandpa said, “Yes, my boy,
I haven't got a tooth in my head.”
' So the lad said, “Well, that's all
right. You can mind my roasted
peanuts.”

“regular” without frequent trips
to the medicine chest. “I just
dose up and get it over,” they tell
you. But doctors know they
don’t “get it over” af all-until they
get at the couse of the trouble!
Chances are it's simple to find
the cause if you eat only what
most opie do — meat, bread,
potatoes. It's likely you don’t pet
enough “bulk” And “bulk”
doesn't mean a Jot of food. It's a
kind of food that isn't consumed
in the body, but leaves a soft
“bulky” mass in the intestines
and helps a bowel movement.
