CONSTIPATION AND sToM-
ACH TROUBLE CAN BE
CURED
!. s. Jansen, President Of the Mil

'Have you noticed the large number of
cases of typhoid fever lately?" said Mr..
j s. Jansen to a Daily News representa-
tive. ITO my notion typhoid fever, ma:
larial fever, appendicitis and many kindred
complaints are the result Of constipation,
patient to run along without proper treat
ment. You will remember when you were
q child and the doctor was called, his first
prescription was dose of castor oil! All
physicians know the value of having the
bowels thoroughly opened. People, when
they grow up, allow constipation to be-
come chronic through a laek Of at attention H9
to carry off the undigested food, which
collects in the alimentary canal and there
decays, generating poisonous disease germs:
These germs find their way into the blood
by means of which they are carried to
every tissue. The fever thus created at.
fects not only the lungs, kidneys, stomach,
heart and nervous system, but in fact any
as'a result. The blood becomes thin and
watery. The sufferer loses in flesh and
strength. Castor oil and pills will not
cure an affection like this. Something
more than q laxative is needed. There are
many physics on the market, and we sell
a great many, having probably the most

medicine, but the high esteem in which
Mull's Grape Tonic is held by the drug
and medical fraternities has impressed me
and know from actual experience right
here in our store that Mull's Grape Tonic
cures constipation and stomach trouble
positively and permanently.
Mulps Grape Tonic is not a physic, but
it Immediately clears the bowels Of the
decaying food because of the peculiarly
strengthening effects it exerts over the or
gans of the digestive system. As tonic
Il is superior to the nauseating cod liver
oil compounds. It builds flesh faster and
creates strength quicker than any other
preparation known to medical science.

result. I only wish that people paid more
attention to these little details, which IN
themselves in the beginning are of $50 slight
importance, but which grew in magnitude
until the most serious trouble and some
deadly disease fastens itself on the con-
stitution. There is really nothing easier
to take than Mull's Grape Tonic. hope

Some years ago while l was staying
at small town in Michigan, a large
man travelling with his wife and young
son in q fine carriage, took quarters at
the hotel.
During the several weeks he was
there, never saw him speak a dozen
words to anyone, although he was
constantly in the hotel Office.
He smoked the choicest cigars, and
several of them day. Should the
landlord or any Of the guests address
him, they would be rewarded by a
mere grunt or monosyllable, and his
wife was equally reticent. Whether
he was a grand duke in disguise, a
horse thief or a bank robber, no one
was able to guess.
Every afternoon his handsome team
and carriage were brought to the hotel
entrance, and he and his family would
take long ride into the country.
After the silent man had been there
just a week two strapping big men
called to see him Saturday evening
and remained until Monday morning.
Each carried what they called a pat

Or the canvasser would instruct the
young man, accompanying him. to :e-
main in the buggy while he went IN
and made the canvass.
While standing In the doorway,
with order book in hand, talking to
the farmer or his wife, he would say,
in a loud voice: "Well, l am very
much Obliged to you, and am sure
that you will find our washer the nm
est thing you ever used"
On returning to the buggy he would
tell the young man how easy 1t was to
procure that order. and thus they
would continue all day, taking orders
at every house, scarcely ever missing
q single one.
In the evening at home the young
man would have q great deal to say
about how the farmers took to the
clothes FOUNDER, and what a fine
money-1laking business it was. The
canvasser had taken pains to explain,
that each FOUNDER sold for five dollars,
though 1t cost only IS cents manufac-
tured in quantities.
Finally, the canvasser In the west
part of the county, happened one night
at supper to :nention that his firm had
another agent in the east part OF the
county, who was stopping with
Mr.. @
Indeed" said the farmer, that
man Is my brother-in-law; his wife,
and my wife here are sisters"
The following Saturday evening each
canvasser announced to his farmer
that he:.was going to the county seat
to report to his employer, and would
return Monday morning.
Knowing that the brothers-in-law
met at the home of their wives parents
nearly every Sunday, the canvassers
had it figured out that they would have
a chance to talk over the wonderful
success of the clothes FOUNDER men.
In this they were correct, and on re-
turning for business Monday morning
each observed that their respective
farmers were much interested, so much
so that they made inquiry as to the
price of county rights.
Each canvasser of course assumed
to know little about that, but in an
unconcerned way, referred his ques-
toner to Mr.. -, at the - house, in
the county seat, who owned the state
Of Ohio in the. patent and who would
give them all necessary information.
The fact that the farmers had be-
come interested, gave the canvassers

and journeyed on foot, with their
trousers tucked into their rubber boot
tops.
It developed later that the two men
were canvassers, and were working on
salary for the Main CRATER" as we
shall call him.
The scheme was worked as follows:
Two farmers, who were brOthers-in-laW,
were selected as dupes. One of them
owned 100 acres of farm land, with a
new house and barn, and the other
120 acres upon which were a COM
Portable house and barn. One lived
west of the town and the other east.
One of the canvassers arranged with
one of these farmers for board, while
the other canvasser made his head
quarters with the other farmer. Once
settled one of them negotiated with his
landlord for the services of his son
and horse and buggy with which to
canvass, while the other made similar
arrangements with the son of near
neighbor of the farmer who boarded
him.
The "patent clothes FOUNDER and
cleanser" was made entirely of wood.
It was constructed exactly as was the
old-fashioned clothes FOUNDER, Of our
grandmothers' days, shaped hoop-skirt
fashion. In the center Of the lower
part, a good-sized hole was chiseled
out, extending upwards. about eight
inches, where small counter holes were
bored, interesting the large one, so
that when the clothes were being
pounded the hot suds would be forced
BY suction up into the FOUNDER, and
passing out through the side holes
would, they claimed, separate the dirt
from the clothing and leave it perfect
" clean--all by the one process Of
pounding, instead Of the old way OF
first pounding, and then scrubbing.

nouncing that 200 of the clothes pound

each canvasser had about 100 orders
to fill, they arranged with the farm
erS to drive to town with them to get
the Founders, after which the farm
er's son and the neighbours boy drove
the teams while they made the deliv-
cries. At each house the young man
was instructed to remain in the wagon
while the delivery was made. The
CRATER, after delivering FOUNDER,
would mark a cross in his book next to
the name Of the party receiving it, and
in leaving would say in q voice, audi

A Garrison Centennial.

A movement is now on foot for the
of the Tooth anniver-
sary of the birth of William Lloyd
Garrison which falls next December.
That is. most authorities state that
Mr.. Garrison was born. December 10,
1906, while other equally esteemed au-
thorities, such as Johnson's Encyclo-
pedia, and Lippincotts Biographical
Dictionary, state that he was born
December II. 1904. However, as the
weight of authority seems to be in
favor of 1906. it will be eminently fit
ing to observe the centennial, next
month. Mr.. Garrison was a pioneer
in the work of negro emancipation, and
his earnest service in that movement
caused HIM to suffer the martyrdom
which pioneers in other great move
n.ents have suffered before him. In
later times, however, his name is held
in veneration, and particularly by the
race whose cause he so heroically
championed when it's champions were
few. He was honored little enough
in life, though before he died. in
1879 the dream of his life had been
accomplished and the country. or at
least the North. had come around to
his way of thinking.
He was born at Newburyport. Mass.
learned the trade of printer and finally
became a journalist. In 1881. he be-
gan at Boston the publication of the
Liberator, journal advocating the alb
clifton of slavery i'm the South. which
he conducted until 1865. In 1882. he
founded the Boston Abolition society.
which became a model for similar So
cieties through the North until the
American Anti-Slavery society was
founded. of which he was president
from 1843 until 1865 when it's work was
ended. He was great and strong
man. nndaunted by opposition and per-
secution and never doubling that his
cause was right and would ultimately
triumph. The movement to observe
the centennial of his birth deserves
success, though the time is so short
| that it is not at all likely that any
general or elaborate commemoration
| can be arranged.
