The Ideal Family Laxative.

Is one that can be used by the entire
family, young and old. weak and
strong, without any danger of harmful
effects. It should have properties
which insure the same dose always
having the same effect. otherwise the
quantity will have to be increased and
finally lose its effect altogether. These
can be found in that old
family remedy, Brandreth's Pills, be-
cause its ingredients are of the purest
herbal extracts. and every pin is kept
for three years before being sold,
which allows them to mellow. We do
not believe there is . laxative on the
market that is SO carefully made.
Brandrethis Pills are the same fine
laxative tonic pills your grandparents
ased. They have been in use for over
! Century and are for sale everywhere.

millionaire and music was his fad, He
engaged Madison Square garden, New
York, for series Of concerts, and the
eastern musical critics almost gasped at
his audacity. His band remained to
play, however, an engagement of 1913
consecutive concerts, the longest run
on record for it's kind. Then followed
as soloists, and the fame Of Duss was
made in a single season, and he became
a recognized factor in the musical
world. N I'LL

When she became i'll she assumed
the name Of her own maid, and OBJ
tanned admission to the hospital. It
was only after her death that her
identity was discovered, and that she
had entailed over f550,000 worth Of
property in her husband family.
The validity Of the will was attacked
by her next-of -ksn, Prince Odescalchi,
Count O'Donneu and Gustav Tarnoczy,
on the ground that a woman cannot set
up an entail out of her own family.
The curie. the highest court of appeal

Paris, July 14.-The weather in
Paris this week has been Of a nature
to cheer the hearts Of thousands Of
American tourists who are now, swarm
ing thru Paris to the various resorts

breezes were allotted to the earlier
days of the week. This later gave
way to showers and drop In temper

enough to cause complaint.

talked about, naturally, were the Long

been close rival Of the visiting king
Of Cambodia so far as private enter:

That many American women are

compatriots. The interesting fact in

Roosevelt's daughter must be surprised
to find herself plunged into thu
