oked fruits are well borne by the stomach,
and so are nearly all ripe fruits. Puddings made from rice and custard
are easily digested.

Milk is valuable at all times, and if the chronic dyspeptic bears it
well, this diet alone will frequently make a marked cure. If it rests
heavy on the stomach, a little lime water may be added to it in the
proportion of a tablespoonful of lime water to a cupful of milk.

=Forbidden Diet.=--There are certain articles of diet which the dyspeptic
should not use under any circumstances. Among such are fried foods of
all kinds, pork, liver, veal, rich soups, turkey, goose, duck, mackerel,
lobster, cucumbers, cabbage, turnips, parsnips, string beans, pies and
cakes, cheese and nuts.

=Constipation.=--As we have already stated, constipation is productive of
the most serious evils. When the lower bowel is distended, pressure is
made upon the surrounding blood-vessels, and thus the circulation
seriously interfered with.

=Causes Inflammation of Uterus.=--As a result, there is congestion in the
blood-vessels of the ovaries and uterus, and inflammation of these
organs is likely to follow with its long train of ailments.

Constipation also seriously interferes with the general health,
producing nausea, indigestion, headache, backache, nervousness, general
debility, etc.

=Daily Movements Necessary.=--Nature intended that the alimentary canal
should be relieved of its contents at least once every twenty-four
hours, and if this is not done, then certain poisons are absorbed into
the blood which produce the most undesirable effects.

=To Cure Constipation.=--For constipation I strongly recommend Lydia E.
Pinkham's Liver Pills. I know they give the most prompt and satisfactory
relief. I have received letters from hundreds of women who have been
cured of the most distressing ailments of the uterus and bladder simply
by using these Liver Pills, and all because constipation was cured and
in this way the cause of the suffering removed.

=Diarrhoea.=--Diarrhoea, as a rule, is an effort of nature to get rid
of some offensive material. While this may be the first reason for its
existence, yet if it is allowed to go on, it produces such an irritation
in the bowels that serious results may easily follow.

=Treatment.=--If the person is conscious of having eaten something
indigestible, as unripe or overripe fruit, then it is best to aid nature
by taking some gentle laxative, as a laxative dose of Lydi
