He was a son of Mr. Len Ridge vay and
a hard working industrious young man
of about 30 years o f age. H e leaves a

The Evil* of Constipation.
Are m an y ; in fact alm ost every se
rious illness has its origin in constipa-
pation, and som e m edicines, instead of
preventingconstipation, add to it. This
is true of m ost cathartics, w hich, when
first used, have a beneficial effect, but
the «lose has to be continually increased,
anti before long the remedy ceases to
have the slightest effect. There is one
preparation, how ever, that can be re
lied npon to produce the same results
with the same dose, even after fifty
years daily use. and this is Brandreth’s
Pills, which has a record of over 100
years as the standard rem edy for con
stipation and all troubles arising from
an im pure state of the blood. Brand-
reth ’s Pills are the same fine laxative
tonic pill your grandparents used and
can be found in every drug and m edi
cine store, either plain or sugar-coated.
