THE STATE PRESS.

New Orleans Picayune: The young
generation is sent to school partly to ac-
quire knowledge and partly to learn discl-
pline, which is fidelity to duty. 1t is not
enough to be told what duty is. 1t is vastly
of greater Importance to be pushed and
spurred on to perform it until it becomes
habit, which willingly complies with
recognized duty. Unless our American
people, in addition to learning what duty
is, shall acquire the habit and rule OF per-
forming it all the education they may get
in public or private schools will be OF little
use.
Monroe News-Star: Under ordinary
conditions, it is extremely difficult to
convict murderer who has any friends.
There are so many ways to escape the
meshes of the law and walk out of the
courtroom free man, when in truth the
accused should dangle from the end OF a
rope. It seldom ever happens that an in
nocent man is convicted. Such instances
are 80 rare that we believe that the records
are blank as far as such cases are con-
cerned in Louisiana. 1t is hard enough to
convict the guilty. The greatest need OF
Louisiana to-day is rigid enforcement OF
all laws. Crime is undoubtly on the in
crease and unless something radical and
unusual is done there is no telling to what
length the murder-mania may not go.
The courts and the juries should stand be-
tween the people and the criminal element,
and with heavy hand punish those guilty
of crime When this is done, and the
Pardoning Board ceases to make a mockery
of Justice, then and then only will Louisiana
be redeemed from the curse of the murderer
with political or any other ''pull.''
New Orleans Times Democrat: The
position of Advocatus Diaboli, who gives
the reasons against granting a pardon, is
in high disfavor in this country. The
average American does not like to present
the arguments, probably strong and con-
vincing, why prisoner should not be re-
leased. On the contrary, he is only too
likely to sign a petition for his pardon,
knowing that he as good citizen ought
not to do so, as he is bringing the law into
contempt, and almost hoping that his pc
tition will be refused. On the other hand,
the Briton, taking the view that his first
obligation is to the State, to help in sup
pressing crime, he assumes the position OF
Draco, and insists on the rigid execution
of the law. AS matter of fact, Americans
are rather disposed to boast of this soft
heartedness of theirs, and criticise the
severity of the English judge, jury and

II the citizen acts thus, is it to be wondered
at that their officials should follow the same
policy?

THE DOCTORS QUESTION.
Advice Against the Use of Harsh Pur
eatives and Physics.

A DOCTORS first question when con-
suited by patient is, "are your bow
els regular?" He knows that ninety
eight per cent of illness is attended
with inactive bowels and torpid liver.
This condition poisons the system
with noxious gases and waste mat
ter which naturally accumulates and
which must be removed through the
bowels before health can be restored
Salts, ordinary pills and cathartics
may be truly likened to dynamite
Through their harsh, irritating action
they force a passage through the bow
els, causing pain and damage to the
deliar inal- structure. which
s6le system, and at
gduces temporary relief.
The repeated use of sucit- treatments
cause chronic irritation of the stom-
ach and bowels, hardens their tissues,
deadens their nerves, stiffens their
muscles and generally brings about
Oh lHJuiIouS HdDlJ WHICH sometimes
has fatal results
We have a positive, pleasant and
safe remedy for constipation and bow
ell disorders in general. We are SO
certain of its great curative value
that we promise to return the pur-
chaser's money in every case when it
fails to produce entire satisfaction.
This remedy is called Rexall Order
lies. We urge you to try them at our
entire risk
Rexall orderlies are very pleasant
to take, they act quietly and have a

fluence on the entire intestinal tract.
They do not purge, grippe, cause nau-
sea, flatulence, excessive looseness,
diarrhoea or other annoying effect,
and they may be taken at any time
without any inconvenience.
Rexall orderlies overcome the drug

all similar ailments, whether acute or

folks. Price, Sc tablets, Csc, and 10
