The Only Laxative
Used by Those Who Know

People never use harsh physic after
they know what it does.
That gripping and pain are symptoms
that the bowels are irritated.
You have come to think, perhaps, that
such effects are necessary, else you
would never endure them.
But they are not; they are wicked.
That irritation of the stomach is the
cause of nearly all dyspepsia.
That irritation of the bowels-causing
the lining to callous-is the cause
of constipation.
Cascarets bring the same results with
out injury.
They never gripe-never pain. They
are as harmless as laxative foods.
Salts and pill cathartics increase the
trouble that you seek to cure.

CONCEPTION OF
THE PRESIDENCY
Secretary Taft Writes an Arti-
Gle, Giving His Views
of the Office.
FOLLOW ROOSEVELT
POLICIES MUST BE CONTINUED
AND DEVELOPED.

New York. June 22.-Secretary William
H. Taft has written the following article
on his conception of the presidency for
the current issue of Golfers Weekly;
In the four years that 1 have been a
member of the cabinet l have become ia
milar enough with the responsibilities
and burdens of the presidency to know
that No man can afford unduly TO seek
that great office. If he is attracted by
honor and power alone. without the hope
of being useful, he is unworthy of the
honor and unfit for the use of the power.
He must prefer for the sake of his own
peace of mind never to be president to
being a poor president. Confident that
the platform on which he stands is for
the best interests of the nation, he Is
untrue TO himself and his supporters if he
does not fight Valiantly for election after
he accepts the leadership. But, of course,
he must draw the line at any compact
which will not leave him free of prom
ises and of the central of any faction.

Duties of the President.

1.-The presidents duties. clearly outlined
by the constitution, have grown broader

the country. He should be in the prime
of years health and Vigor. The capacity
for hard work is a better equipment than
genius in mastering the essentials of all
the departments of the government ana
undergoing the strain of countless inter-
views. He should look not only to those
in office, but to those out of office, in all
branches of private activity, for infor
nation and opinion, in order that he may
arrive at the truth when he is surrounded
by the conflict of interests which come
to him with the fair words of the special

Should Be Near the People.

'In many senses though the most
sought after he is the loneliest man III
the United States. Elected chiefly by the
people their representative head, from
them, in the saber thought of the major
ity, he will get his best counsel. Through
Indifference or preOccupation with private
affairs may keep them from attending
primaries or scanning closely either CAM
didateS or measures they can center on
the president as their instrument for the
expression of their wishes. He should be
always near the people in thought and as
near them in person as his position will
permit. In common with the people he
is human and he must ask their charity
for his mistakes. When they have ceased
to believe in his sincerity and upright
eousness of purpose his is a cherries
task. Once convinced that he has di-
vined and is carrying out their real
wishes. neither elated by any Outburst
of applause nor diverted by any out
burst of censure. he must proceed un-
waveringly, always by lawful methods
