WINE IN CREAM PARLORS
A New Phase OF the Liquor Question lr
CHICAGO.

A New Phase OF the Liquor Question In
Chicago.
Chicago Jan. ga new and insidious
phase of the liquor traffic has developed
in the discovery that the ice cream par
rs in the downtown district Of Chicago
have marked influence on the consump-
ton of alcoholic drinks by women
In contrast to the wineroom, the ice
cream and candy establishment presents
dangers Of the gravest sort. 1t is sa-
loon in every sense of the term, except In
the deceit that is practiced in the sery-
ing Of drinks.
There is no bar, of course. Liquor is
served at the little tables. along with cho-
colate, coffee and raspberry wine. But tbs
deceit does not end with the tables. In
toxicating liquors are served not in the
orthodox transparent glasses, or petit
verre. in use by saloons. but in the deli
cate demi- tasse-the very same used for
soft drinks. Thus. if a young girl, out
on a shopping tour, is seized with sud
den daring resolve to sample the nyster-
les of a cocktail. she runs no risk of be-
ing discovered in the act by her friend
who has dropped In for a coffee frappe or
a dish Of Ice.

Constipation
Cured .
Good Health Is Utterly Impossible I'm

Body Are Got Rid of A
Safe, Natural Remedy Is
to Be Had From
'.'.. anv DruppiSt


Constipation isn't pleasant to dis
cuss--it's unpleasant from any stand
point, but If you are constipated you
are sick and will be sicker unless re-
lieved.
The first question the doctor asks
is, "How are your bowels?" The first
thing he does Is to make them act
naturally.
If there were no such thing as con-
stipation nine-tenths of the suffering
from disease would be done away
with, because there would be very
little disease.
Nature has provided you with
bowels and kidneys that your sys-
tenn may be kept free from poisons
She has tied up the nutritive ele-
ments Of all food in a mass of in
digestible materials, from which it is
freed in the process of digestion.
If this undigested portion of the
food Is not removed through the
bowels. it simply Lies in the intestines
and rots, causing pain and disease.
Iron-Ox Tablets not only relieve, but
permanently cure constipation.
Remember, Iron-Ox Tablets are not
purgative or cathartic in their effect;
they are tonic-laxative; they cure by
building up the entire system. Purga-
tives and cathartics give only tenn
pOrary TelleI Dy VlOleEC anu lIJITl-
Gus action--they do far more harm
than good.
Anything which shocks the system
into activity is dangerous. Do not ex-
pect immediate perceptible effects
from Iron-Ox Tablets. They produce
a natural regular building up of al
the functions. This takes little
time, but success is absolutely Ger.

CHINESE BANDIT CAUGHT
A Village Of 1000 Population Destroyed In
the Operation.

Shanghai, Jan. practically the en-
tire population of Shekpo was extermi
mated recently by a detachment of $500
imperial soldiers and marines under Ad
miral Fong, who maintained regular
seige in order to secure one of the noted
bandits and pirates of southern China
named Ma Wong Hoi. This man had
retired to his native village on the East
river near Canton after having early in
December attacked junks owned by a
mandarin of Wachow and then started
out on a pillaging expedition.
Admiral Fong at first demanded that
the elders of the village deliver over Ma
Wong Hoi. The latter himself appeared
and fired on the soldiers, killing eight.
This incensed Fong, who ordered heavy
cannonade.
The village was shortly in flames, re-
sulting in the death of over 1000. Many
women and children were burned and
others drowned in the river. Ma Wong
Hoi was captured I'M a neighboring vii
lage with $1,000 a9F paper money secreted
