Better than Pills.

The question has been asked-ln
what way are Chamberlain's Stomach
and Liver Tablets superior to the or
dinary cathartic and liver pill? Our
answer is-They are easier and more
pleasant to take and their effect is so
gentle and agreeable that one hardly
realizes that it is produced by a
medicine. Then they do not only move
the bowels, but improve the appe-
tite and aids the digestion. For sale

usual for the recommendation Of the

klns was the first choice Of the &C.
clesiastical cOnclave held in Boston last
spring, and was again the favOrite at
the meeting Of the propaganda, seems
to make his faal appointment certain.
Bishop Harkins was born in Boston
in 1874. attending the Brimmer school
and Latin high school, graduating with
the hOnors OF a Franklin medal. He
then studied a year at the Jesuit Col
lege of the Holy Cross in Worcester
theological course at the St. Sulpice
