Wiley, Directer Good sekeeping Bus Foods, Sanitation and Health. CHEER UP—BRIGHTEN UP! NY doctor will tell you that ‘‘the blues” is frequently a symptom of constipation and its attendant evil, auto- intoxication. Take care of constipation and *‘the blues’’ will take care of itself. But laxatives and cathartics won't cure constipation, In fact the indiscriminate drugging of the system with such rem- edies only aggravates the condition and tends to make con- stipation chronic. N Because of the evident dangers of the laxative habit, physicians everywhere are advocating the use of Nujol, a pure white mineral oil, which does not drug or physic but which acts as an intestinal lubricant. ! Nujol softens the contents of the intestines and lubricates the entire tract, so promoting normal evacuations, It is purely mechanical in its action, and is not absorbed into the system. Consequently it is not habit forming and may be taken in any quantity without harm. - i Write for booklet, ‘“The Rational Treatment of Con.' stipation.”’ If your druggist cannot supply you, we will send you a pint bottle of Nujol prepaid to any point in the United States on receipt of 75¢ —money order or stamps., STANDARD OIL COMPANY (New Jersey) Bayonne New Jersey R ki o e 2 TR Vedw o Ve w she ly and Sunday Heo ore 4 v, . day, ms-'u.-' o Her picture will be in The Bee every day this week.
