THE EVILS OF
 CONSTIPATION.
Everyone Knows When He is Consti- pated and Everyone Should Know the Risk He is Running When He Fails to Promptly
 Correct 1t.
Any Disease Epidemic or Otherwise ta Which lie or She May be Exposed
 is Sure to Result Seriously.

There are two ways to remove consti- patton; the wrong way is to drench the bowels with powerful, gripping, drastic cathartic that injures the coating of the bowel channels and produces an early return of the trouble in more chronic form. The right way Is to use natural. easy and mild laxative that tones up and strengthens the bowels and leaves a healthful influence behind it. Prickly Ash Bitters will empty the bowels just as thoroughly as the harsher eathartics, and combines all the tonic and strength ening properties necessary to perma- nently cure the habit.
 Accept no substitute. Insist on having

When Maxim, the famous gun in- ventor, placed his gun before a com- mittee of judges, he stated its carry ing power to be much below what he felt sure the gun would accomplish.

Dear Sirs: Your business is, when
a house burns down, to give the
the owner some money to build a
new one. 1t is a good business.
Queer that the world got on so
long without it.
We paint the one that burnt
down and the new one, two. What
is better, we paint the houses that
don't burn down.
You:insure the houses that burn.
We insure the houses that don't.
You have the ashes and smoke: all
the houses are ours.
We paint lead and-zinc: Devoe.
We sell the paint to painters. We
don't paint.
Lead-and- oil is the old fashion
paint. Devoe is zinc ground in
with lead and linseed oil: the best
paint in the world; and the cheap
est because it takes fewer gallons
than mixed paints and it wears
twice as long as lead-and-oil. No
body wants poor paint; there's lots
of it, though in the world.

RimeI Caught.

Barlow Rimel, the horse-thiei

Franklin early in the spring, was
last week e-taken and is now safe

ing someone disguised as a mill

identy of the suspect. He proved
to be the fugitive and was prompt
ly arrested by Sheriff Mauzy, and
taken on to Moundsyille.
Our informant says that Rimel
'incriminated his guards in the mat
ter Of his escape, stating that his
friends paid them bride of 500
to let him 60, and that one of them
went with him from the room to a
nearby woodpile and helped to re-
move the shackles. As to whether
he made such statement, or, it
made, whether worthy Of credence,
we do not know, but there is no
doubt as to his recapture as above
stated.
Rimel was convicted Of stealing
a horse from Mr. Arthur Hiner, Of
the Thorn. and sentenced to the
pen for term Of years. He made
his escape the night previous to the
arrival of the man detailed to es-
cort him to the penitentiary.
A few days later he passed down
