True Secret of Keeping
youthful Looking
(The Beauty Seeker.)
"The real secret of keeping young-looking
and beautiful," says a well-known hygienit,
is to keep the liver and bowela normally
active. Without these requisites, poisonous
waste products remain in the system, pollut
ing the blood and lodging in various organs,
tissues, joints. One becomes flabby, obese,
nervous, mentally sluggish, dull-eyed, wrinkled
and sallow of face.
"Bat to get liver and bowels working aa
they ofeght, without producing evil after-effecta
has been the problem. Fortunately, there in
• 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 humble May apple, or its root*
which has been called 'vegetable calomel' be
cause of its effectiveness—though, of course, it
Is not to be classed with the real calomel of
mercurial origin. There is no habit-forming
constituent in /sentanel* tablets—that's the
name—and their use is not followed by weak
ness or v. v austion. On the contrary, thesa
harmless vegetable tablets tend to impart tons
and elasticity to the relaxed intestinal wall.
Sentanel tablets, which may bo procured from
any druggist—a dime's worth will do—will
Srove a revelation to any constipated, liver*
-oubled person."

conquer constipation—
liven up a lazy liver—
banish biliousness—
Few Persons
Know Lumber
And therefore are un
able to properly in
spect or identify the
lumber called for.
When buying lum
ber you should tell the
dealer what the lum
ber is to be used for so
that the proper kind
and grade is recom
mended.
Unless the suitable kind
is bought it may not fully
serve the purpose intend
v cd and must be replaced
in a year or two which
means added expense.
Don't put too much de
pendence on cheap price
lumber it's the quality
of the stick tlvit counts.
