The adjourned meeting was called to
order by Mayor Jones at o'clock in
the afternoon and no business was
transacted of surprising nature. OF
course everybody expected that the Ii
quor agency would be opened, but
nothing was done in regard to the mat
ter until after a number Of orders had
been passed. Hon. S. S. Brown, alder
man from Ward 4, arose and said that
he had matter which he felt his duty
to bring before the meeting. He said:

amount of bad liquor being circulated
in the city. Now 1 was much impressed
by this sad condition of affairs when
the other day a lady having a sick
friend came to me to help her get some
alcohol. 1 didn't know just how much
she reality needed it, but I hunted
around all over the city trying to find
some for her and failed. Now the Ii
quor agency exists just for such emer-
gencies and 1 made up my mind that
would use my influence to have the
agency opened far enough to get a lit

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

After many years of study and practice
q physician specialist has discovered the
cure for constipation. 1t is called Chases
Constipation Tablet.
Il 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
q cure. By gently forcing all the digest
i've organs to perform their function. it
restores them all to health and strength.
. "IHE MORE, THE LESS" q
"The more you take the less you need
until you need none-for yoa are cured.
My effort all along was to avoid the evil
of the ordinary remedy which pampers
organs already weak and 90 makes the
patient slave to the pill. Remember
Nature expects every organ to do it,
duty"
Physicians have long recognized the
fact that constipation IS at the bottom
Of nearly every disease. Itsaps all energy,
and makes life burden; it opens the
doors to all evil germs and makes tha
body too weak to resist them.
