True Secret of Keeping Youthful Looking (The Beauty Seeker.) ""The real secret of keeping young-looking •nd beautiful," lays a veil-known hyglenist, "is to keep the liver and bowels normally active. Without these requisites, poisonous waste products remsin in tne system, pollut ing the blood and lodging in various organs, tissues, joints. One becomes flabby, obese, nervous, mentally sluggish, dull-eyed, wrinkled •nd sallow of face. "But to get liver and bowela working as they ought, without producing evil after-effects haa been the problem. Fortunately, there is • prescription of unquestioned merit, which may now be had In convenient tablet form. Its value is due largely to an ingredient de rived from the humbie May apple, or its root, which haa been ealled 'vegetable calomel' be cause of ita effectiveness—though, of course, it la not to ba classed with the real calomel of mercurial origin. There is no habit-forming constituent in 'sentanel' tablet*—that's tha same —and thair uaaia not followed by weak ness or exhaustion. On the contrary, these harmless vegetable tablets tend to impart tona •nd elasticity to the relaxed intestinal wall. Sentanel tablets, which may be procured from any druggist—a dime's worth will do—will prove a revelation to any conatipated, liver troubled person." | The Constipation Curse | Constipation - clogged bowels cause psin and sickness; 95 per cent of our ills, say the authorities.
