THEY IEJURE CHILDREN
Ordinary Carthartics and Pills and
Harsh Physic cause Distress
inc COMPLAINTS.

You cannot be 0Ver-careful III the
selection of medicine for children. Only
the very gentlest bowel medicine
should ever be gwen. Ordinary pills,
cathartics and purgatives are too apt
to do more harm than good. They
cause gripping, nausea and other dis
tressing after effects that are frequent
ly health destroying and life lasting
annoyance.
We personally recommend and guar
antee Rexall Orderlies as the safest and
most dependable remedy for constipa-
ton and associate bowel disorders. We
have such absolute faith in the supreme
virtues of this remedy that we sell it
on our own guarantee of money back
in every instance where it fails to
give entire satisfaction, and we urge
all in need of such medicine TO try it
at our risk.
Rexall Orderlies contain an entirely
new ingredient which is Odorless, taste
less and colorless. 1t embraces all the
best qualities of the soothing, laxative,
strengthening and healing remedial
active principles of the best known in
testinal regulator tones.
Rexall Orderlies are extremely pleas
ant to take, are particularly prompt and
agreeable in action, may be taken at
any time, day or night; do not cause
diarrhea nausea, gripping, excessive
looseness, or other undesirable effects.
They have very natural action upon
the glands and organs with which they
come in contact, act as positive and
regulative tonic upon the relax, dry
muscular coat of the bowel, remove
irritation, dryness and soreness, over
come weakness, and tone and strength
en- the nerves and muscles, and restore
the bowels and associate organs to
more vigorous and healthy activity.
Rexall Orderlies not only cure consti-
patton, but they remove the cause of
this aiiment. They also overcome the
necessity of constantly taking laxatives
to keep the bowels in normal condition.
There is really no similar medicine
so good as Rexall Orderlies, especially
for children, aged and delicate persons.
They are prepared in tablet form and
in two sizes of packages; IL tablets, 10c
and SO tablets, 25c. Grant Holden.

Charged With Shoplifting.

Considerable excitement was caused
in the village on Thursday of last week
when Monte Anger and friend of his,
were caught taking sack of flour out
of the rear door of Waterman's Store.
They were also suspected of stealing a
number of chickens and disposing of
them. The men were intoxicated when
brought before Justice Davis and could
not give very good accounts of them
selves, but before warrant could be
issued the men got out of town, but
later complaint was sworn out by
Harry M. Waterman, but up to date
the men have not been apprehended.
Mr.. Waterman says that he is not so
particular about the sack of flour, but
wants people who are guilty of petty
theiving to stop, or he will arrest every
man who is caught. AS long as these
two men stay out of town it is not like
ly that they will be arrested. Sanilac

Matt. v:l0
Verses 1718-If child of God finds
himself i'm prison which is the better
thing to do; fret and worry about it, or
be glad and rejoice?
If a good man is in prison is that
the best place for him for the time?
Can an enemy, or circumstances, or
his ignorance, or any other power, other
than personal sin, put christian in a
position, where his highest interests
are not being served to the utmost pos
sible? (This question must be answer
ed in writing by members of the club
Verse 19-By what method did God
release the Apostles from prison?
Does God in these days ever adopt
similar methods, to release his servants
from prison, and did he always adopt
that miraculous method in those days
(See case of Jesus and John the Bap-
tist.)
May Christian in prison to-day, be
absolutely sure of his release, if that is
necessary for the accomplishment OF
his work?
Verses 20-21-Does God now give us
direct, and specific, instructions as to
our duty. when that is necessary?
Should a Christian always testify in
Gods Temple when he has the oppor.
tunity; or should he wait for special
instructions from GOdp
Verses 22-25 is it all possible that
any power can prevail against God, OF
those in the care of God?
Does God sometimes require us ia
run the risk of our lives, as these apos
ties were doing?
