warning, if left UNDECIDED, means serious
chronic trouble later on. Medical sta
tistics show that q greater humber Of
people suffer from constipation than from
all other diseases combined. A great
talk is made about consumption, but IL
the truth were known, constipation kills
more people than consumption. Within
the last few years a medicine has been
discovered and made known to the Amer
lean people, of such merit in curing con-
stipation and its consequences that now
over ten million boxes of CASCARETS

attained by n II medicine i'll the

that it is the best and will do all and
more than claimed. If you are a sufferer
you are not doing right by yourself or
your family if you fail to give CASCA-

to warn you to get the genuine, because

Sleuth Finds a

Down in South Clark street, Chi
cago, a few years G I ran across the
only scent restaurant l ever saw or
heard off, said a well known detective.
"a queer place it was and run
by Andy Golf, who nee lived in Sioux
City. Golf was a queer duck; he was
educated, after a fashion. had read a
great deal of pretty good stuff In his
time-some of it I heard of my
self, but I know the way Andy used to
shed language that it was picked out
Of Shakespeare, Voltaire or some Of
those guys. And another thing-that
man Golf could take any word in the
English Language and spell it backwards
and correctly, too, quicker than the
average man could spell it frontways,
and that's no Ethiopian sensation,
either. But where was at? / started
to tell about Goff's chop house or hash

to call 1t.

gan to wander i'll my mind. Golf was

stains That was all. Sport could not
tell how things happened to be that
way, but he seemed to be pretty well
satisfied with his own part in the mix

He had been bitten in the right fore
leg at the first joint, and his nose and
ears were scratched somewhat, but
there we're no very serious injuries.

up few points that were of use TO

King Christian of Denmark, dean of
the worlds monarchs, likes to move
about among his people without cere-

walks about the streets of Copenhagen
he has been known to hail a common cab
and drive to his castle. r~sr,.
His plain, quiet habits he has always
maintained from the time when he was
only an ordinary officer in the Danish
army and had no thought of ever be-
coming a king.
One day King Christian sat on a bench
in the wood near Fredensborg, smoking
his cigar and whisking the fallen leaves
with his cane, when an old peasant wom-
al came along, carrying basketful OF
eggs She took a seat beside the king.
Looking at the white-haired, plainly
clad old man, she said:
''You are from the neighborhood here,

went near the nest the bird flew of.
If stranger or any other member OF
the household entered the room she
flew away at once. Mr.. Chapman. how
ever, was especially favored, just as If
they knew that he was the landlord
and might press them for rent. He
could remove the hen from the nest,
place her back, or handle the eggs. and
they never said word. The eggs
having been Matched, Mr.. Chapman no.
ticed that the father always fed the
same two youngsters, and the hen al
ways the other two. He tried to puz-
zle them by mixing up the babies, Dut

the other. When the fedglings were
able to fly, the whole family went out
for the day, returning at night One
morning. however, they did not go out
but. instead. all perched on the rail at
ceaseless 1witter for fully an hour.
Then they took their leave for the
year. Mr. Chapman kindly took means
