For in- stance, the harsh .cathartics and violent purgatives used by our forefathers to relieve constipation are now known to be not only un- necessary but really harmful. Con- stipation can be more effectively relieved witdiout the discomfort and pain these old-time remedies oceasion. A combination of simple laxative herbs with pepsin, sold in drug stores under the name of Dr. Cald- well's Syrup Pepsin is most effect- ive, yet mild and pleasant.
