GET At The CAUSE.
re Day Of Drastic Druss and Psrsativsa
Has Gone by.


Has Gone by.
Constipation Of the bowels, usually
considered a 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 is the usual remark.
But the dose never cures. 1t relieves
for the time, but aggravates the COM
plant for the future, and next time
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
and they call it Calcura Solvent. II
Is the latest discovery of David Kenne-
dy, Physician and Surgeon. OF Kennedy
Row, Kingston, N Y, and If you write
to the above address. mentioning this
paper, you will receive small bottle
free. Or if 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, is
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 ath-
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 condition Of perfect health.
1t is not . mere purgative. but thor
ough constitutional remedy that cures
by removing the morbid deposits that
cause disease.

PROSPECTUS.

In rendering this, our prospec-
tus, we wish to avoid tlowery,
deceptive language, and to set
forth in detail few simple, plain
facts, briefly stating what we
have done, where we have opera
ted and what we propose to do.
The Prairie Mamou Oil & Min
eral Co. Ltd, domiciled at Jen-
nings, Calcasieu parish, La. is a
duly organized and chartered
company, capitalized at 5000, 900.
Captain D. E. Sweet, president
Of the Jennings Banking & Trust
Co., a man of unquestionable in
tesrity and pronounced busi-
ness success, is president Of this
company.
From the organization Of this
Company it has been the purpose
to select small plots Of really oil
lands throughout the oil belt of
Calcasieu parish, ignoring in a
measure large bodies Of indiffer
ent lands without promise, upon
which leases could be procured
at nominal figures. Following
up this idea they have purchased.
First.-Twenty acres near the
blackberry we'll that is full of
promise, the we'll being down
near 1000 feet, with every indi
cation of success. The stock of
this we'll is now at par value.
A peculiar feature chAracter-
ling this we'll, which lies thirteen
miles southeast of Sulphur Mines
is, that before the day when sui
phnr was extracted by heat a
spring at Hack berry flowed very
cold water, which today is almost
us hot as hot c,ffee. We also
purchased five acres near the
Vintou wells which have struck
several stratas of oil, published
to the world.

Now Type of Wnrcrnft.

A repair ship, the Assistance, has
been constructed for the British ad-
miralty. This vessel is a new type
of warcraft, and in reality consists of
a floating workshop for the undertak-
ing of those repairs to battleships
while at sea which do not necessitate
visit to the drydock. The Assistance
is 436 feet in length by SO feet beam
and has displacement of 5000 tons.
Her engines are OF 1920 horsepower
and she has speed Of thirteen knots
per hour. She Is to be attached to
the Mediterranean fleet.
The Jennings daily record., 1901-11-27

The net result in respect OF speed
is that while ten years ago the highest
sustained ocean speed was 20.7 knots
it is now 1881 knots; the highest speed
for large warships was 22 knots and
is now 23 knots on a trial Of double
the duration Of those OF ten years ago;
the maximum speed attained by any
craft was 25 knots, as compared with
36.bS1 knots now; while the number
OF ships of over 20 knots was eight in
1891, and Is fifty-eight now.-Engineer-

Slot Machine Provides Meals.

Slot machines providing meals have
been introduced in London. The re-
freshments are arranged on a long
buffet behind a glass screen. On put
ting four pennies one after another
into the slot the screen rises and a
tray holding a teapot. milk jug, sugar
bowl and cup and saucer comes within
reach. The teapot contains tea leaves
and hot water can be drawn from a
public tank. To pennies produce a roll
with butter, or sandwiches, or bath
buns, and other slots yield temperance
drinks and confectionery.

cond.-Finding unparalleled
gas and oil indications ON Bayou
Blue, about fifteen miles north
of Jennings, we purchased Bayou
Blue Springs, covering hill of
about five arcres on Bayou Blue.
We also have forty acres three
miles north Of the Jennings Oil
Well, where gas and Oil abound
and upon which it was at first
intended to sink we'll. But the
climax was struck when after
much labor and time had been
spent, ANSSE A. LA BUTTE, the
SPINDLET TOP of Mamou Prairie
was secured, and this is a real
Spindle Topin every sense. This
six acres lies within mile Of
Bayou Cane, tributary of Mer-
mentau river and just north of
Mermentau station where the
Southern Pacific railway crosses
the Mermentau river, giving
easy and cheap access to an out
let to market.
This is where the Prairie
Mamou Oil & Mineral Co., Ltd
will within the next 80 days be-
gin to sink we'll with the prom
Use in advance of gusher. 1t is
about one fourth of a mile south
east of the noted gushing well of
the Jennings Oil Go.
We intend to bore our second
well on Bayou Blue. We have
leases upon several hundred
acres of lands on which we would
bore in event others see fit to
develop any adjacent thereto and
meet success.
The Company will offer $4,000
shares for sale at so cents per
share for d short time. Par val
ue of shares one dollar each. We
would much prefer to sell these
shares to home people.

rorpedo Boats and Steam.

Contrary to the general belief the
engines of torpedo boats are not at all
extravagant in the use Of steam, but
approach kigh economy. considering
that they are driven regardless of cost,
the sole view being to get the highest
possible piston speed In the shortest
timo with forced draft of greatest in
tensity. The coal burned per initial
horse power in the case Of one boat
recently constructed was only 1.SS
pounds per ur, with a consumption
of sixty-eight pounds pcc square foot
of gas.-Chicago News.

Adam Smith n False Prophet.

One curious and wholly unexpected
result of the Spanish-American war Is
that since she lost her colonies Spain
has begun to develop her mercantile
marine in quite a remarkable manner,
the capital which formerly found an
outlet in the colonies now seeking en-
ployment in shipping, says an English
magazine. And this new development,
on the part of Spain hardly accords
with Adam Smiths general principle
that industries flourish greatly in time
of war and decline on the return OF
peace.

Ninety Miles OF Gas Pipes.

One of the longest gas mains ever
laid is pipe of the Philadelphia COM
p&ly, extending from the gas fields OF
Wetzel county. w. "a, to Pittsburg
The pipe is ninety miles in length and
ten inches diameter. The initial pres
sure at the wells is about $50 pounds,
and the discharge pressure Is from ten
pounds to fifty pounds. With this drop
the pipe delivers about 10,000,O00 cubic
feet Of gas per twenty-four hours.

Alexander Ramsey who became the
first governor of Minnesota territory
June 1. 1S49. celebrated his birthday

Contncion About n Pin.

The swallowing of a pin is less to
be dreaded than the contagion that
may lurk about the pin. Under its
head and about the point of pencil
a whole multitude of disease germs
may lurk.. which being given entrance
to the mouth from there soon infect
the whole body, thus causing illness,
or perhaps even death.-Chicago News

to be willing to conclude This would be
on the basis of granting autonomy to the
two republics under convention, guaran-
teed by France and Russia In exchange
for cession to Great Britain of the Rand
district and the gold fields, which should
be regarded as the total Boer indemnity
The story circulated in the United States
BY news agency today under an Amster-
dam date, purporting to give the peace
terms which the Beers are willing to ac-
cept and alleging that they are to be en-
bodied in a formal document for circula-
tion among the powers, was seemingly
started In AN English provincial paper, and
is denied by the Boer delegation at The
Hague.
A Berlin dispatch says: The German
papers, in discussing the speech of Lord
Salisbury at the Guild Hall banquet in
London Saturday night, express disappoint-
ment that the speech contains no word
OF conciliation for the Beers and no pros
pect Of peace"
The Vossische Zeitung says: ''The time.
we believe, is near when public opinion of
Great Britain will find the courage to open
ly demand a change Of policy in order to
avoid q further weakening Of Great Bri-
tain's position in the world
A dispatch from The Hague says: The ad-
ministrative council of the arbitration tri-
bunal will meet November 20 to decide on
the appeal of the Beers against the ruling
that the war In South Africa is not subject
to the courts consideration.
