Reedcr writes aa follows nl appendicitis :������ ��� "In 1'iiiisidei'inK the treatment of any condition of sickness it. lms a'.-viiys been my rule lo first find the cause. To my mind, It's tho only logical way. Many people, seem to think that If they have bad an operation for appendicitis they aro .forever Immune, and need have no further fear along thai lino, but I say emphatically, and .1 think you will agree l mn right, that after an attack of appendicitis, even though you have been successfully operated upon and the appendix removed, your troubles have only Just begun unless you remove the cause. V.'hat was the cause of the appendicitis '.' "The thoughtless will say Inflammation in the atppendlx. No, Inflammation in lhe appendix Is appendicitis, but what caused th*i Inflammation, V Constipation, yes. that is tho prime cause. IC you were never constipated you would forever be safe. Appendicitis is only one ot the results of the retention of fecal matter ln the colon for too long a period." There is no longbr any question that lhe real cause of appendicitis is constipation. By keeping the bowels regular you uot only prevent appendicitis, Imt also a host of other ills, some of which are even more dangerous than appendicitis. Dr. Chase's Kidney-Liver I'ills are recommended to you ia this connection, not as a mere relief by effecting tho movement of tha bowels, but rather as a positive cure for constipation, As is well known, the bile secreted by the healthful action of llio liver is Nt lu ''s eallini'tie. So long as ihe bile flows freely into the in .mes there is no constipation of the bowels and no clogging of the excretory organs. Hence the wisdom of using Dr. Chase's Kidney-Liver Pills to ensure regular working of the liver, kidneys and bowels. Vou thereby save yoiirsel- muo.h ineonvenienee from the minor ills of life, and cusuro against such fatal diseases as appendicitis and peritonitis.
