Must Quit Pill Habit.

"You young and middle-agei men and
women who eat and drink everything you
like. and you old men and women who are
addicted to pill-eating to keep your overdue

catharties Can't Cure.

'You can shake your fist at almost any
old disease known, II you've got the bowels
that do business every "a hours. This is
plain talk, but every doctor will tell you the
same thing. only he may be more particular
in his language, but 1t won't have the i'm
preston on your mind
NOW, you cant cure constipation with
cathartics and one of the reasons why there
is much constipation today is because there
are so many drugs, liquids and unnatural
bowel movers guzZied and swallowed by SO
many thousands Of people.
1T Is true these cathartics sluice out the
bowels clean. but they also sluice out that
bowel-moying Juice or secretion which Nature
has put In every good bowel to make it
work easy and right. When this natural
juice in the bowel is cleaned out year bow
els become mere dead-pipes. Then you get
a bad case of constipation and pills are swal-
lowed to do tae moving. This goes on, over
and over again.
Take 1t for granted now that you have
got 10 quit taking pills and drugs, castor oil,
cascara, jalap, gamboge and all other cathar-
tics before you can ever hope to cure your

Results Of Constipation.

"when train is stuck in the tunnel and
cannot be dslodged, it stops traffic. With
the body it is worse because when there is n
blocking up somewhere in your 30 feet of
bowels, the poison from the blockade is going
to be soaked up by the little capillaries on
the inside lining OF the bowels. and all this
poison is rushed right through the blood.

a4-Hour Habit" All Important.

1T is one of the simplest things in the
world to cure even the worst case Of chronic
constipation, and yet nearly every other man
and woman you meet is positively SO stopped
up as to be hardly able to think clearly. To
get the habit every "a hours regularly works
wonders. By the habit don't mean the
catharatic habit, but I mean that natural.
easy move that every one ought to have with
out having to make rush for the pill box
every night.

Our brt 'e boys knew exactly what to
contend against, but were anxious to
move upon the works. On our side
were arranged a few engines Of war
and good many thousand brave

evening of the 8th a sharp crack of

announced that the sball1 had opened.
Hardly a moment had elapsed, and the
pounding is most terrifici all along the
line. The sharp salute ofithe Rodman,
the tearing noise of the Hapoleons, the
dull, heavy report ofuthei mortars and
the awful roar of the PARROTS can be
better imagined than described. Add
to this the kissing, cracking and crash
ing Of our own and the enemy's shells,
and the awful diapason Is at Its hight.
This furious cannonade was kept up
without abatement for nearly two hours.
At sundown there was no abatement
Of the firing upon our side. For the
past hour, however. the enemy's fire
had slackened. The rebel gunboats had
ceased firing after the first half hour
altogether. Batteries Huger and Tracy
fired 12G-pounder regularly every five
minutes. Spanish Fort and Fort Alexis
had let up considerably, while Red Fort
had almost ceased its fire after the first
hour.

argued by Gen. Carr. it can drive the
