When a person gets up in the morn.
Ing with a dull headache and a tired,
stretchy feeling, it's an almost certain
indication that the liver, or bowels,

to give warning that she needs the
help and gentle assistance which can
best be obtained from that old fam
lily remedy. Brandreth's Pills, which
has been In use for over a century.
They are the same fine laxative
tonic pill your grandparents used
when doctors were few and far be-
tween. and when people had to have
q remedy that could absolutely be de-
pended upon.
Brandreth's Pills can be depended
upon. and are sold In every drug and

HIS WORD is GOOD.
There Has Been No Reason to Think
The President Would Change.

New York, Dec. 1.-THE official an
nOuncement from the White House to-
night that President Roosevelt would
adhere to his earlier determination not
to accept a denomination was received
with interest but hardly with surprise
by party leaders here. The President
generally has been taken at his word.
While it was pointed out that the
argument that the President might by
sheer force of circumstance be COM
PEELED to accept a third term nominal
ton against his will, was as potent as
ever, the concensus Of opinion among
those seen was that Mr. Roosevelt s
clear cut and decisive language had
taken him out of the situation. The
suggestion that Mr.. Roosevelt could
consistently accept a second elective
term was disposed of, it was thought
by the Presidents own words.
1t was generally agreed that the
elimination of Mr.. Roosevelt's name
brought that of Gov. Hughes as New
York's candidate sharply to the front
