New American Industry.

The infant industry of raw silk pro-
duction gives promise of developing
into sturdy and vigorous manhood,
even though protective duties and the
aid of state or national bounties be
denied it. The father of the present
movement to establish sericulture as "a
permanent and profitable branch Of
American industry is Louis Boris
Magid, a German by birth. an Italian
by descent and an American by choice
and adoption. At Hillulah Falls, Ga,
he owns $500 acres of land on which
he has planted more than 100000 mui-
berry trees, which ore now from three
to five years old and which are de-
signed for the feeding of millions of
silk worms. The land will be sub
divided into many small farms and
| leased or sold to persons willing to en-
gage in silk culture. Mr.. Magd has
proven that silk can be produced as
| cheaply in America as in any other
country and that the 500. 900. 600 or
more expended annually for foreign
silks might just as well be kept at
nome for the benefit Of American
farmers. workmen and manufact urers.

The chief cause Of Constipation and
Indigestion is weakness Of the Muscles
that contract the Intestines and Bowels.
Cascarets are practically to the Bowel
Muscles what Massage and Cold Bath
are to the Athletic Muscles.
They stimulate the Bowel Muscles to
contract, expand. and squeeze the Diges-
tive Juices out Of food eaten.
They don't help the Bowels and Liver In
such a way as to make them lean upon
similar assistance for the future.
This is why, with Cascarets, the dose
may be lessened each succeeding time
instead Of increased, as it must be with all
other Cathartics and Laxatives.
Cascarets act ike exercise.
