Food decayed in the body

Cascarets are the simplest and surest
safeguard against Delayed Digestion yet

IN this round-edged Enamel Box are

One Of these toothaome tablets works
wonders for digestion.

This Nutriment is then carried into the
Blood, and spread over the Body as
Brain, Bone and Brawn.
But, when the BoweLMuscles are weak
the Food moves too slowly to stimulate
the little Gastric Mouths and there is no
flow, or too little flow Of Digestive Juice
to change the food into nourishment.
Then, the food decays in the Bowels
and in the thirty feet of lntestines.
When this Decay begins the little sue
ton pumps draw Poison from the deeayed
Food, into the blood, instead of the Nutrl-
ton it should have drawn.
Now, Cascarets contain the only com
bination Of drugs that Stimulates these
Muscles of the Bowels and Intestines just
as a Cold Bath, or open-air Exercise
stimulates Lazy Man.
Cascarets therefore act like Exercise.
They produce the same sort of Natural
result that a Six Mile walk in the country
would produce, without any injurious
Chemical effect.

Locks the government has expended
$4,000, 900 in building canal, one of
the finest in the world, to make the
river navigable to The Dalles.
Washington side is seen the north
abutment of ''The Bridge of the Gods"
Indinn legend tells of a time when the
Columbia river was spanned by a
mighty natural bridge at this point
the water flowing smoothly under it
in an unbroken channel, while the
redmen crossed the bridge in their in
terconrse and accustomed travels.
How the bridge came to fall is woven
into many pretty legends, one of which
says that on the Oregon side of ths
river there lived an Indian brave up
on whom the gods looked with mucn
favCr. While hunting on the Washing
ton side he met and fell in love with
an Indian maiden. Returning some
time later he married her and start
ed for his home on the Oregon side
When just about to cross the bridge,
! disappointed suffers and tribesmen ap-
pe;,red from ambush. Noting their
wrath, and taking the advice of the
young wife, the two hastened across
the bridge. No sooner had they reach
| ed the Oregon side than there was a
/ loud noise, and looking around, they
saw that the great bridge had fallen,
carrying the angry pursuefs to d
watery grave, the gods thus again
showing their love for the chieftain's
son. When the bridge fell the forIna-
tiun caused rapids in the river which
| interrupted navigation until the con-
struction of the canal. The bend of
the rIVer on the Washington side is
the site of the old block house where
Phil Sheridan fought his first battle
+, with the Indians.
Major Lee Moorhouse took many
views of the falls and the beauties OF
scenery surrounding the river before
being marfed III places by the building
of the locks.
