It is through the bowels that the body is cleansed of impurities. Constipation keeps these poisons in the system, caus­ ing headache, dulness and melancholia at first, then unsightly eruptions and finally serious illness unless a remedy is applied. DeWitt's Little Early Risers prevent this trouble by stimulating the liver and promote easy, healthy action of the bowel?. These little pills never act violently but by strengthening the bowels enable them to perfortn their own work. Never gripe or distress. Julia A. Story, McHenry; G. W. Besley, West McHenry.
