recently made the statement that the
pine beetle, which Inns done 80 much
harm 10 the forests OF the Black Hills,
has practically disappeared. For the
past FIVE years these insects have been a
pest. The government spent large sums
in experimenting for a way to extermin-
ate them, but nature finally rose to the
emergency and the bugs disappeared Of

Health and Beauty.

A roor complexion is usually the re-
suit OF a torpid liver or irregular action
Of the bowels. Unless natlpe's refuse is
carried off it will surely cause impure
blood. PinIples, boils and other erup-
tons follow. This is natures method Of
throwing Off the poisons which the
bowels failed to remove. DeWitt's Little
Early Risers are world famous for rem
edying this condition. They stimulate
the liver and promote regular and
healthy action of the bowels but never
cause gripping, cramps or distress. Safe
pills. A. J. Jones.
