FOR CONSTIPATION.
A Medicine that Does Not Cost Anything
Unless il Gives Satisfactory Relief,

II you suffer from constipation in any
form whatever, acute or chronic, we will
guarantee to supply you medicine that we
honestly believe will effect permanent re-
lief if taken with regularity and according
to directions for q reasonable length OF
time. Should the medicine fail to benefit
you to your entire satisfaction we promise
that it shall cost you nothing.
No other remedy can be compared with
Rexall Orderlies for the easy, pleasant and
successful treatment Of constipation. Phe
active medicinal ingredient Of this remedy,
which is odorless, tasteless and colorless,
is an entirely new discovery, Combined
with other valuable ingredients, it forms a
preparation which Is incompatible as q
perfect bowel regulator, intestinal invig-
orator and strengthener. ReXall Orderlies
are eaten like candy, and are notable for
their gentle and agreeable action. They
DO not cause gripping or any disagreeable
effect or Inconvenience, and may be taken
a. any time, day or night.
|. We particularly recommend ReXall Or
derlies for children and for delicate or aged
persons, because they do not contain any
thing injurious. Unlike other preparations,
they do not create a habit. but instead they
overcome the habits acquired through the
use Of ordinary laxatives, ~cathartics, and
harsh physic, and remove the causes of
constipation or irregular bowel action that
are not OF surgical variety.
We want you to try ReXall Orderlies at
our risk. We know of nothing that will do
you so much good. They are prepared in
tablet form in two sizes: So tablets Is
cents, and IL tablets 10 cents. Remember
you can obtain Rexall Remedies in Able
vile only at u store,-The Rexall Store.

THE TIME TO ADVERTISE.

There's nothing on earth so mystic
riously funny as an advertisement.
The prime, first and last, and-alI-the
time object Of an advertisement is to
draw custom. 1t Is not and never
will be designed for any other purpose.
So the merchant waits till the busy
season comes and his store is so full of
customers that he can't get his hat
off, and then he rushes to his printer
and goes in for advertising. When
the dull season gets along and there
is no trade and he wants to sell his
goods SO bad he can't pay his rent, he
stops advertising. That is, some do,
but occasionally level-headed mer-
chant does more Of 1t, and scoops In
all the business, while his neighbors
are struggling to make ends meet.
There are times when you couldn't
stop people from buying everything
In the store If you planted cannon
behind the door, and that's time when
the advertisement is sent out on its
holy mission. 1t makes light work
for advertising, for chalk sign on
the sidewalk could do all that was
needed, and half holiday six days in
week. Advertisements are built to
do hard work, and should be sent out
in dull days, when IA customer has to
be knocked down with hard facts, and
kicked insensible with bankrupt re-
ductions, and dragged in with ire.
sistible slaughter of prices, before he
will spend a cent. That's the end and
aim of advertising and II ever you
open store, don't try to get them to
come when they are already sticking
out of the windows, but give them
your advertisement right between the
eyes In dull season. and you will wax
rich and own fast horse and perhaps
be able to smoke cigar once or twice
a year. Write this down where you'll
fall all over it every day. The time
to draw business is when you want
business, and not when you have more
business than you can tend to already.

Discretionary Powers.

The u%nthinking demand for the
strict enforcement Of every law on the
statute books sometimes runs UP
against an obstacle in the house Of its
friends. An address on Our Police
and Penal Systems" delivered before
the Omaha Philosophical society by L..
j. Quinby and now put in print, advo-
Gates indeterminate sentences and very
large discretionary powers for the
courts, and then proposes to enlarge
the discretionary powers of the police,
as follows:
l would give the police not larger dis
cretionary powers in bounding and arrest
ing people, but / would allow them a
larger discretion about leaving people free
from arrest. BY that l mean that our po-
lice officers should be taught to discrimi-
nate between offenders and not drag a
man t. Jail for the least offenses. as they
do now.
In other words, there must be dis
%cretionary power lodged somewhere In
the matter of law enforcement. The
suggestion that the law against drop
ping banana Feelings on the sidewalk,
or allowing dogs to run at large,
should be enforced as strictly as the
law against murder and burglary is
preposterous. Intelligent exercise of
common sense by every law-enforcing
officer, whether governor or mayor,
judge or policeman, is the safety valve
of government.
