Minister DANGER SIGNALS Headache, colds, nausea, blues, mental de- pression—these are not only painful and annoying, but they are danger signals. A great majority of these passing illnesses are due to self-poisoning resulting from con- stipation. Upless you keep your system free from decaying food waste, you start contin- uous poisoning inside. Ultimately Bright's disease, rheumatism, gout, diabetes, perni- cious anemia, and the like, may result. Pills, castor oil, laxative waters and selts only force and irritate the bowels, and make constipation s habi Nujol works on an entirely new principle. Instead of forcing or irritating the system, if sim; softens the food waste. This ensbles the meay u‘fi‘; muscles in the walls of the intestines, contracting and ex- panding in their normal way, to squeeze the food wasts along so that it pesses naturally out of the system. Nujol thus prevents constipation because it helps Nature maintain easy, thorough bowel evacustion st regular intervals—the healthiest habit in the world.
