Ths Day Of Drastic Drugs and PurGativss
nsa Gone Nv.

Tie Day Of Drastic Drugs and Psrsatives
Has Gone BY.
Constipation OF the bowels, usually
considered simple complaint, is the
more dangerous because it is deemed
trivial. Trihes neglected become the
most serious Of ailments. "a dose Of
physic will cure it " ia the usual remark.
But the dose never cures. 1t relieves
for the time, but aggravates the COM
plant for the future, and next time a
bigger dose Is needed. The bowels,
strained, weakened, poisoned by re-
peated dosing with strong drugs, be-
come more and more constipated, invit-
Ing appendicitis, deranged liver and
stomach, weakness OF the urinary or
gans, bad blood, and chronic organic
diseases OF various kinds. Constipation
should be cured promptly. Druggists
sell the one medicine that cures consti-
patton. They sell big bottle Of it for
81 and they call it Calcurs Solvent. 1t
is the latest discovery Of David Kenne-
dy, Physician and Surgeon, of Kennedy
Row. Kingston, N, Y, and il you write
10 the above address. mentioning this
paper. you will receive small bottle
free. Or II your druggist does not keep
Calcura Solvent, send 81 and receive q
large bottle by express. all charges paid.
Richard +. Johnston, OF Rondout,
N. Y. once the great centre fielder OF
the Boston Baseball Club. later with the
New Yorks and the Cincinnatis, 10
known all over America. He took Cal
cura Solvent for constipation and torpid
liver OF long standing and was cured.
He recommends Calcura Solvent to a,h-
letes. There are hundreds OF other
cases.
BY reason Of its cleansing and tonic
properties on the whole system, Calcura
Solvent puts not only the bowels, but
the stomach. liver. blood, kidneys, and
bladder in n condition OF perfect health.

BOY ACCIDENTALLY SHOT.

Belgrade, September 25.-Walter Mar
ston, 10 years old, boarder at one Of the
farms in Rome, and resident of Frank
lin, N. H., was dangerously wounded
while out after partridges Monday. Mar
ston's gun was accidentally discharged +,
the charge entering his back between the
shoulders. The flesh OF the back and neck
was badly lacerated, as was also the
scalp. The gun lay few feet away from
the boy, land the only way that the acci-
dent could be explained is that while the
boy was bagg1ng a bird that he had shot,
(and this was evident by the presence of
feathers on the ground) the gun was
probably dragged in such manner that
the hammer caught and exploded the
piece. The boys recovery is very doubt
full.

S@ IvattOn Army Lassie Tells of Her
Expert ences With Bar Keepers.

More than the usual number of specta-
tors gathered in Monument square last
evening in attendance at the regular out.
door services Of the Salvation Army. The
music seemed to be better than Is ordi-
nartly the case while the speakers de-
parted from their accustomed rut and
touched upon some of the up-to-date sub
jects of the day. One of the Iassies, who
Is possessed Of a clear, distinct voice so
that she could be plainly heard by all of
the crowd, took up ths liquor question
and for few minutes commented on
local affairs. LAS she continued In her
stirring address the on-looksrs gathered
nearer and nearer. Il want right here
to say one thing she declared. 'sWhile
l am greatly opposed to the selling of
Intoxicating liquors as are all of our
Army and pray that the day may come
when there shall be no such thing in
America as saloon, am ready to state
that during all of the time that l have
been in Portland and have gone into the
saloons to sell the War Cry have always
received from the bar tenders the most
courteous treatment And whenever there
has been shown by any of the loafers In
these places any disposition to insult me
or any of our Army, I have yet to come
across a bar tender in Portland who has
not at once stopped in his work, coma
out from behind his bar and prevented
trouble. 1t is not so at all the places
which have visited in my travels in this
city, places where we would have reason
to expect better treatment. The cold
manner In which we have been received
by people who have snapped out mo- In
answer to our questions II they would
like to buy a Cry has been enough to give
anybody the chills, But God is no respec-
tor of persons and we keep cheerily on
our way and have learned to care not for
the rebuffs. Then, too. we are not de.
manding anybody to come to salvation.
But we think that you all should come.''
The Army held a rousing meeting in
the Federal street barracks at the con-
clusion of the outdoor gathering.
