You know, it S not how much
LIZ we Eat, but how we Digest that
makes Us Strong. or Brainy. or Successful.
When the Bowels are filled with undi-
yested food we may be great deal
worse off than if we were half starved for
want of Food.
Because, food that stays too long in the
Bowels decays there, just as if 1t stayed
too long in the open air.
Well, when food decays in the Bowels,
through delayed and overdue action, what

draw Poison from the decayed Food,
instead OF the Nourishment they were
Intended to draw.
This Poison gets into the blood and.
in time. spreads all over the body. unless
the Cause of Constipation is promptly
removed.
That Cause of Constipation is Weak.
or Lazy. Bowel Muscles.
When your Bowel-Muscles grow flabby
they need Exercise to strengthen them Inn
not Physic" to pamper them.
There's only one kind of Artifcial
Exercise for the BowelMuscles.
Its name is "CASCARETS." and its
price is Ten Cents box.
Cascare,s act like Exercise on the
Muscles of the Bowels. and make them
stronger every time they force these
Muscles TO act naturally.
The stronger these Muscles propel the
food. the stronger does the friction of the
food act on the flow Of Digestive Juices.
The more Of these Juices that act on
food, the more Nutriment does that food
turn into, and the richer nourishment do
the little Suction Pumps Of the lntestines
draw out Of il.

W. c. French of Watertown Re-elect.
 cd President at Compounce.

The annual reunion of the Croco- dile club was held yesterday at Lake Compounce as 1t has been for the past generation. Yesterdays meet ing was the thirtieth anniversary of the first meeting of the club, which was held at Compounce on August 2S. 1876. It was founded as a sort of legislative reunion by the late Cad Norton and was such a success that it has been kept up each year.
 All the old timers but one or two have dropped out SO that 1t is now more of a reunion of latter day mem bers. Mir Norton was the first presi- dent of the club. then the late Ard Welton of Plymouth was elected and his successor was Hon William G. French of Watertown who still holds the office.
 There were fully 800 present and 1t was the largest gathering ever held by the club. Among those present were County Commissioner William Bailey. jr, of Hartford, Sem ator Henry H. Peck of Waterbury, ex-Mayor Samuel Bassett of New Britain, James Richtmeyer of New York city and Thomas H. Brady of New Britain.

LABOR DAY FESTIVITIES
Merchant DIssshg Up 1heIr FnIls-
 Shop Lssgus b,lI cins

The different stores about town arc getting into holiday attire for the Labor day parade which will bs held here Monday. The affair will be the biggest thing of the kind ever held in Waterbury and the local or ganiEations are sparing no expense to complete plans to give the visitors a royal reception. The parade itself will be well worth walking miles to see. but this will be a small affair compared with the excitement on the trotting park where all the boys who have conceit that they can jump and leap better than others will have an opportunity to prove the truth of their assertion by actual demonstra- tion. Almost all the principal towns in the state will be represented in the parade and crowds will flock in from all over to see the sights and take part in the merrymaking. It was re- ported to-day that the street depart ment had issued challenge to the Warren Bros who are now doing bus iness in this city for an exhibition of road making, the contest to come of on the trotting park on Labor day, provided such, thing should be ac- ceptable to the committee. This im- promptu program calls for road roller race between the man who runs the ponderous machine for the city and the gentleman employed in that capacity by the Warren Bros; also a test of fine paving and curb setting with August Fiege and Tom Keenan. representing the city gov- ernment. If this takes place it will interest every municipality in New England and delegations will be pres ent from every town and hamlet be- tween here and New York.
 The management has secured two of the fastest teams in the Shop league to furnish a ball game and 1t is expected that one of the snappiest games of the season will be witt messed. The Oakville Co.'S team, which has not met with a defeat this season and the Ring Co team, which is one of the strongest in the league. will do the honors. Much rivalry exists between the teams and 1t is expected that both teams will be heavily backed.

EIKs' OLD HOME WEEK.
Committee of Arrangements is Fast
 Rounding Things Into Shape.

There was meeting ot the Elks' fair committee last evening and all the sub-committees gave interesting and satisfactory reports. The new Buckingham hall which will be used for the first time for bazaar purposes will more than satisfy the members of the lodge and the visiting broth CTS, but will astonish the many pat rons of the bazaar during the week in which 1t Is given. Just at present the entertainment committee is the busiest of any of the subcommittee. The attractions this year will be of the startling kind and the best that money can procure. When a lodge starts to lay out from S10.000 to SIS, ,000 before the doors of the Buck ingham hall are thrown open. you can imagine on what scale this Elks' Old Home Week is to be conducted. If you want to know why those things are done just ask any Elk you meet to show you one of the souve- mfrs which has been supplied to ev- cry member of the lodge. that will partially tell you the whole story.
