A WONDER WORKER
MARVELLOUS DISCOVERY FOR
THE CURE OF ALL FORMS
OF CONSTIPATION NOT
A HABIT BUT A CURE
YOU DECREASE THE
DOSE UNTIL CURED.

After many years of study and practice
a physician specialist has discovered the
cure for constipation. 1t is called Chase
Constipation Tablet.
81 do not mean" said the physician to
several OF his colleagues announcing his
success, II do not mean just another pill
that breeds the pill habit My remedy is
a cure. BY gently forcing all the digest
i've organs to perform their functions it
restores them all to health and strength.
1.-THE MORE, THE LESS"
"The more you take the less you need
until you need none-for you are cured.
My effort all along was to avoid the evil
of the ordinary remedy which pampers
organs already weak and so makes the
patient slave to the pill. Remember
Nature expects every organ to do its
duty" .
Physicians have long recognized the
fact that constipation is at the bottom
Of nearly every disease. 1t saps all energy,
and makes life a burden; it opens the
doors to all evil germs and makes the
body too weak to resist them.

TO TRY OIL ROADS.

John C. Penny, city clerk of Cha
mute, while in Topeka on business
at the state house stated that the
city of Chanute will, with the open
ing of spring, commence the cons
truction of a large number of blocks
of "oil road" similar to the famous
oil roads of California.
Chanuie will lay it's oil roads in
the best possible manner, and ex-
spects to have streets at very
slight expense which will stand all
the demands of traffic in that city.
A good deal of brick pavemen has
been laid in Chanute of late, but II
the oil road proves successful, 1t lie
likely that brick will not be much
used in the future as 1t is consider.
ably more expensive.
In laying its oil roads, Chanute
will put a stone curbing as for any
pavement. and will construct sub
stantial concrete and macadam gut
ter on each side of the street. The
roadway will then be graded with
a good crown, and thoroughly sat
urated with oil, of which Chanute
has an abundant supply. The oil,
it is believed. will render the street
impervious to water during rains,
and will also cause II to pack per-
fectly hard and firm in dry times.
1t has been observed that the
ground ia the neighborhood of the
oil wells, which has been throughly
soaked with oil, is almost as hard
as rock.
The cost of putting oil roads in
shape for use is almost nothing

RUMORS OF MINES
Hog Back Mountain Covered with
PrOspectOrs.
RICH STRIKES SAID TO BE MADE
The whole MOnntain Staiked Out in
Clains.-KOu Are Nothing Ii You
Havn't a Claim on Hog Back.

The air is literally full of rumors of
about some rich finds of ore on Hog
Back mountain north of the railroad
track just west of town.
1t will be remembered that last win
ter sometime before Christmas, a man
by the name of Sadoske who was as
sociated with E. L. Wester and r. T..
King had made n rich strike on Hog
Back, the ore sample assayed more
than twenty thousand dollars in gold to
the ton. This was published far and
wide and attracted considerable atten-
tion. AS the mountain was soon after
covered four or five feet deep with
snow prospecting was practically stop
ped for the winter. Now, however,
that the snow has disappeared the work
of prospecting has been resumed. A
number of claims have been staked out
and some work has been done.
The past week it was reported that
Frank Bagley had made discovery on
this mountain that eclipsed anything
yet discovered.
Some railroad man has made dis
covery that is so promising that he
layed off to work his find.
L. G. English, it is said, has also
made discovery that promises to make
him and his friends rich.
What little there is left of the noun
tain side that is not already staked off
in mining claims is small as compared
to the whole.
AS the Echo has heretofore said OF
discoveries on this and adjoining noun
tains, if "a body of mineral is found it
will be valuable because of its accessi-
bility and the ease with which the min
eral can be put aboard the cars.
Should power be required to operate
any mines that may developed, that
problem. too, is solved, as the Tum-
water falls could easily be harnessed
and made to develope enough power to
operate dozen OF the largest kind of
mines.

STEPHEN S. BAILEY
Declares Himself a Believer Iii the
''SimpIe Lifes''
OUT OF POLITICS FOR GOOD
From Now on VIII COnfine Himself
TO Rural Pursuits. locate
Colony at Cashmere!

1t was reported just after the election
last fall that Mr.. Bailey had lost thirty
thousand dollars on the election of
George Turner as governor of Wash
ington. While this did not serious Y
cripple him financially it evidently
gave him some food for thought. Up
to the late election he always took u
lively interest in politics and was ever
ready to back his opinion With his
money. Now, however, all this is
changed. He declares that he is out of
politics for good, and will from this
devote his energies to making two
blades of grass to grow where only one
grew before.
He is not by any means the first man
to be convinced OF the hollowness and
vanity of hanging onto public favor and
turn to mother earth for consolation
and surcease Of sorrow.
A recent issue of the Post-Intella
gencer contained the following outline
of his plans for the future:
rs. S. Bailey, the Seattle man who is
reported to have lost handsomely in
the recent election wherein former
United States Senator Turner was de-
feated for governor, is no longer in
politics. He says so himself Steve
has now become rural in his pursuits
and environment, and talks of little
else save the Vale of Cashmere, where
he is starting Il colony, and of the
simple life.'
Friday night Mr.. Bailey reached
the city from his new home and came
to The Hotel Cecil He wore an aged
felt hat, an old flannel shirt and tat
tered suit of clothes. ''Me to the sim
pie life said Mr.. Bailey to his friends.
No more the hurry and hustle of the
city for mine Pastor Wagner knew
what he was writing about when he
told of the beauties Of simplicity in
living.
"The Vale of Cashmere is not large
place." Mr.. Bailey stated. There is
no hurrying or scurrying around there.
We do not have to keep dressed up all
the time, as you probably motto. And
politics do not bother us there bit. a
Vale of Cashmere man would not lose
any money on an election in fifty years:
Somehow | like to associate with men
like that, now that l have eschewed
politics.
"a hotel is being built in Cashmere
by Mr.. Bailey. He also owns news
paper, and is thinking about starting
some big irrigation bitches, When he
was in Cashmere on this last trip he
helped lay the foundations for the
hotel, wrote some editorials for his
paper and planted whole lot Of fruit
trees. When the bitches are being
started he says he is going to sail right
in and help dig them"
