-Habitual constipation is not only one
of the most unpleasant, but at the same
time one of the most injurious conditions
of the human system, and is forerunner
of disease, unless removed. This is usu
ally accomplished by the use of purga-
tives, which for the time afford relief, but
after their immediate effects have passed
they leave the system in worse state
than before. To effect cure it is nee
essary that the remedy used should be
one that not only by it's cathartic effect
relieves the bowels, but at the same time
acts as tonic, so as to restore the organs
to sound, healthy condition. This
PR1CK1EY ASH B1TTERs will do. It re-
moves the cause and restores health.

to nave calf this spring. In the case Of
the calls being female, Mr.. Middleby
has an offer of $500 for it. Dandy Knight
is yearling, fine of texture, coal black,
